Advice for a FreeSat standard deff Recorder (PVR)

[A210AMG]

Hello

For use in a holiday house we have a Freesat box that lets us pick up UK Channels.

We wuld like a recorder. It only has one input from the dish so not sure a Hi Deff freesat recorder would do?

Can we get a normal Freesat none hi deff recorder?

We have looked at a seperate recorder bit menas more remotes etc so would just like an all in one devce.

Any advice

If you have only one LNB /downlead your BOX can usually only" look" at one channel at a time- there exceptions to this but practically that's it. However most HD PVR boxes have 2 LNB inputs + an LNB output!!! So all you do is use a little loop connector from the LBN output to the 2nd LNB input. This way you can record what you are watching [ or not] the rule is you can only record what you are watching with one LNB but you can record a single channel when you are watching or not at home
