This unit is a perfectly little cheap unit to turn any FTA unit into a PVR. Works great. It has some downsides like a slow remote response. But still 4 stars our of 5 stars. For the price, its good. And its dynamic, it can be used on more then just fta's too. Anything hooked to it can turn PVR in an instant!
