Ultraplus 980HD micro PVR Digital Satellite Receiver/PVR
[980HD]
$429.00NZ

Freeviewshop is proud to introduce an impressive addition to the UltraPlus range, the 980HD micro PVR which offers the latest recording and network technology.

Linux based, the 980HD offers true High Definition output and the latest high speed ST7109 processor. The result is quality on an unsurpassable level. The picture detail is amazing, images are razor sharp with super fast motion handling. Menus are displayed in full HD with ultra modern smooth scrolling graphics.

When connected to an external HDD the single tuner PVR even allows recording of up to two channels while watching another and picture in picture on a further channel (provided that channels are limited to one transponder).

The EPG is received from the satellite broadcast and is buffered while you watch TV and loads instantly at the touch of a button. Mutiple EPG views allow easy booking of programs to be recorded. Time shift recording allows you to pause a live broadcast and return to it moments or hours later and continue where you left off. Ads can even be skipped in their entirety using the commercial skip function.

Pre-programmed for Freeview, twin CI and single CA allows reception of Freeview, FTA and Encrypted or Pay TV.

Files can be recorded and transferred to a PC via an external USB HDD, directly via Ethernet, via recording onto a USB pen drive or via a network attached HDD. The 980HD can be networked with other 980HD receivers and/or UltraPlus F-9000HD receivers. By networking any number of these units you can record to a shared network attached drive, or even share the internal drive of an F-9000.

Outputs include HDMI, Component Video, composite (AV) and S/PDIF for digital audio or Dolby AC-3 bitstream output. Two CI slots to accept CAMs. The CA slot accept viewing cards directly.

The 980HD micro PVR outputs true HD and can upscale to 720p and 1080i so is ideal for use with high end LCD and Plasma TVs.
