Sony SVR-HDT1000 review

 

Stunning HD pictures and a massive 1TB of storage, but limited functionality

Stunning HD picture ; clear set-up menus ; massive 1TB of storage

Disappointing BBC iPlayer picture ; EPG’s look and standard-def pics could be better

The SVR-HDT1000 is good – but you can’t help feeling that it should be better

Sony SVR-HDT1000 review

 

Do you want a digital TV recorder that bundles all manner of extra gadgetry onboard, such as Blu-ray player, Smart IPTV functionality and media streaming? Or do you want a simple PVR with a big enough hard drive to let you Series Link without fear?

Huge HDD; quiet operation; archiving to external HDD; music and photo jukebox functionality

No smart portal or video playback on USB; no on-box display

My Best Buy Ever

 

This is one of my best buys. Had it for two years now and it's still going strong. I tried two Topfields - One died after 6 months, and for the other its functionality was limited, so returned it. I tried Tivo for one day - the product is not supported...

It has every key functionality

Updates at 1am in the morning, so dont keep it in your room if you are a light sleeper

Expensive paper weight

 

Records fine, not that easy to use. Don't bother trying to copy a show that you have recorded to watch back alter on a DVD or thumb drive because it will only work on this device. This is due to copyright laws! I should never have listened to the...

Hard to use, won't allow you to copy anything on the HDD externally and watch on another device!

Sony SVRHDT1000

 

Guide search is great, it searches different categories to set more than a week ahead. An excellent feature is that the hdd will copy or move files between 2 separate ext hdd,s, a great feature when you want to shuffle your contents around. The hdd can...

Set up of folders is excellent, operates as if a laptop.

The remote scroll arrows and ok button are failing after 2 years. No cropping which is annoying.

Sony SVR-HDT1000

 

Reasonably compact. Fairly intuitive controls and remote key layout.

Takes an unacceptably long time to respond from the time of switching it out of standby. This is VERY frustrating. Occasionally freezes altogether on switch-on, necessitating the need to unplug the unit for a brief period, then wait even longer while...

Sony SVR-HDT1000

 

Firmware works much better than that used in some previous models.

Can be complicated to get used to, but then it does has more complex features than previous models.
