Not freeview +

 

I just wanted to add a review as this LG unit isn't really Freeview Plus!!!! With Freeview Plus it's mandatory specification that devices have the ability to record any programmes listed in their 8-day Electronic Programme Guides. In fact, the HDD...

LG RHT599H HDD/DVD Recorder.
