SAGEMCOM RTI90-500 T2 HD

Sagemcom, formerly Sagem, is the first company that's sent us a Freeview HD recorder. The RTI90-320 is only the third Freeview HD set-top box we've seen, following Humax and Goodmans' Freeview HD receivers.

Absolutely rubbish product overall! Takes forever (nearly 5 minutes in real life) to boot up and even then, it doesn't always work on the first try. I've at times spent over 10 minutes trying to turn it on to watch TV! Once it's on, teh picture quality...

This is a versatile recorder with lots of features. As my area has just gone digital I've had some problems with the recorder. It has frozen when using some features but seems to be getting better as the digital switchover settles down. I will reserve...

DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM. After 2 years I have had enough of it. It locks up about every 4 days. Solution: you have to pull the power lead out of the back. When it locks up you will not be aware that it has locked up, and it will not record any programmes...

Been struggling with one of these BEASTS for a couple of months. First unit returned to supplier when the flimsy plastic construction of the front fascia sprung away as I gently removed the protective covering. Worse follows once you actually plug it...

No problems with this item. Relatively easy to set up - I am a fairly dozy pensioner. Soon got used to the remote. Fast forward is not very fast. Pity it didn't say (or I didn't notice it) that it included the HDMI cable, as I purchased one and had to...

Having had a Sagem SD TV recorder for many years with very little problem ( which by the way is still working) I naturally went for the same manufacturer. The box is much smaller than I imagined and fits snugly next to the other equipment. Setup is a...

After having a mad rush to get a recorder for the Olympics, we found this with the added bonus of HD for BBC 1HD, ITV1HD, Channel 4HD, BBC HD and 301HD(don't know what this channel is?!). I needed to readjust the Ariel outside but apart from that, it...
