Fatastic bit of kit - worked as hoped, but what a failure the instruction manual is.
Too small to read without magnifying glass.
Illustrations of screen views virtually unreadable.
Not comprehensive either on the pieces of equipment, no mention of IR sensor, or of the menu system and its use. If you have used and set up similar equipment you can fathom it out, but even then getting in to turn off the sub titles or to retune etc. is an obstacle course first time round.

I needed a simple Freeview tuner to replace a Humax PVR which had been moved to another room. The Humax only worked with either an outdoor aerial or a high gain loft aerial and mast head amplifier. The Konig works well with a simple indoor aerial and loft amplifier, 40 miles from the Oxford transmitter.
Set up is a little hit and miss as there are several abbreviations used in the menus with no explanation. The only problem I had was geting rid of subtitles but trial and error fixed this. I guess that I spent around ten minutes setting up the unit and deleting unwanted channels. The remote control needs less aiming than the Humax did and its receiver easily tucks away.
This is a great little product and I'm going to get another one to replace a very old and energy wasting On Digital box on a bedroom TV.

We had tried free standing freeview boxes of two different brands and price ranges but the picture from this little receiver is outstanding, head and shoulders above the rest.
It truly exceeded all expectations, if you are hesitating on your purchase as I did im sure you wont be dissapointed !
Picked up the usual channels (maybe on or two shy of the full compliment) probably due to the fact that our aerial wasnt upgraded but the quality of the picture is ace. Remote works well, tuning process was simple and you don't need the manual to work the tuning contrary to other reviews I read. Yes the instruction manual is small and could be difficult to read if your old or partially blind but if that's the case lets be honest what isn't?
EPG works but is a little slow to build but anyway I bought it to watch telly on not plan my days viewing in the EPG. When changing channel you get an on now and next banner which is clear and like Sky or Virgins in operation.
In summary, a highly recommended piece of kit.... Get it

This item was purchased on 23rd October 2011 and was OK until it failed to work about four weeks ago. I can find no way of raising this matter with Amazon. Read more

Konig Scart Receiver for digital TV
A good product that would be better if it had teletext, hence the 4 stars. With teletext it would get 5 stars.

Good, but no teletext data
Fast dispatch and easy to set up but will not give me teletext despite re-tuning several times. Pictures and all else are fine.
