EE TV Box Pro 4K HDR Set Top Box Recorder 1TB Storage Subscription Free Youview Receiver

Special thanks to TopGeezer for providing excellent and easy to follow step by step instructions to supplement manufacturer's information booklet. TopGeezer also provided patient guidance and assurances. Must confess that I only opted for Freeview as the manufacturers of my trusted Freesat recorder had stopped making replacements. Professional installers could not resolve why the new Freesat recorder provided by them could not accept and resolve signal issues. The aerial output plug into the TV was providing an excellent Freeview video but the new Freeview recorder could not process this same signal data when aerial removed from the TV and inserted into the recorder. Followed TopGeezer's .important first stage. Not needing an aerial connection on the ground floor I was able to update the TV Box Pro directly to the router on the first floor. Connected HDMI cable from recorder to TV, aerial connection to recorder and its mains transformer. Easy to follow on screen instructions enable set-up to be completed. Large selection of stations shown from the device "Guide" button. Tested record system and all working well. Slight disappointment in that there seemed to be a deterioration in the image quality on both live and recorded programs. I had read warnings about not being able to fast forward adverts if I opted for Freeview via an internet connection. Needed to try this alternative because of the direct image quality. Fewer Freeview stations were available through the internet connection procedure but a random selection of those chosen provided a first class video images. No problem fast forwarding through test recordingss from several programmes recorded simultaneously from different channels. BBC iPlayer and Amazon Prime checked and able to log on and receive high quality video Used a high quality coaxial cable to link from output of the TV Pro Box to the input of the TV. This provided high quality images to the TV when the Freview recorder is turned off Spent a little more time than expected to get a perfect installation and now very pleased with the end result

Excellent product. Easy to set up. it is important to read the information that the seller sends out and follow the simple instructions. I have it connected to internet and aerial and works perfectly.

So far it has lived up to expectations. Simple to set up and navigate. One slight niggle to date, I had to do a reset as it froze. It was fine after, but I hope this was a one off.

Picture very clear Easy to operate Access to lot’s of channels and APPs. I bought this as I cancelled my sky package and to be honest there is more on this box than I had on sky family package which cost me £55 p m It’s thin compared to other models so fits well in my tv space in my media wall

Arrived quickly, though the postie left it in an outhouse without letting me know. Very easy to set up, it was only done yesterday so can't comment too much but everything seems to be working well. If it continues as is, then I'll be very happy.

I'm the first to complain to any makers about their products that don't operate as discribed and generally do. In a good way, I feel a bit cheated as I can't find any faults with my EE TV BOX. Now I've had for 4 weeks, I've finally mastered the navigation, and it's an absolute dream. As I'm in my 80s, I do not want streaming, Netflix or any internet of any sort,(which I cannot get now anyway, as I set up with a non EE router). All I want is to record and watch freeview programs. I can and do watch news and other programs on freeview when I require. I have set up and recorded 4 programs at the same time while watching a fith prerecorded or freeview program just as stated, fantastic, the age of technology!!!. All with the facility of 1 TB hard drive storage. My previous other brand wouldn't control the tv. Their technology expert told me my tv was to old. Not true (as my first pvr did control the tv. so I returned. The ee pro controls everything. Just what I wanted, one remote for all functions. The remote buttons are instant change, not like the previous that took 3 to 4 seconds for each function! This unit cost me £108, what a bargain, when other brands that don't have as many facilities start around £300. I keep an eye on latest sales, and this model is selling many every day and regularly out of stock for new ones. I really enjoy using this recorder now I know how. I'm like a kid with a new toy. At this point in time, this is the best and most advanced recorder I have ever bought I AWARD THIS RECORDER 6 STARS, THANKS EE FOR A GREAT PRODUCT. S. TOON

I've now spent many hours trying to make this thing do "what it says on the tin". I've enlisted copilot, the EE "help" pages, the built in "help". Still slow to respond, tells me that there is no signal from my aerial (The TV seems to think there is). Won't "find" ordinary TV channels (my TV can). Followed advice from other users (they tried to help, but the thing still really doesn't work). Everyone else seems to think it is the DB, so it "must be me". Truly disappointed.

Seems to do what I bought it for. It was easy to set up and I think it will provide me with pretty much the same services you might normally require a virgin, sky etc. account to obtain.
