Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

A versatile and compact Digital Terrestrial Receiver, designed by Pace, the Digital TV experts, and manufactured by Philips, the consumer electronics specialists.

Although compact in size this receiver packs plenty of features, such as twin-scart sockets for flexible connectivity and a 7 Day Electronic Programme Guide, to plan your viewing for a week ahead. Additionally a selected number of channels may be designated as favourites for easy selection.

Channel information is displayed for each channel, including a short description of the programme and a timer function allows you to set the receiver to switch on or over to a selected programme using the EPG.

The Plug and Play feature means installation can be completed in less than five minutes, ensuring set-up is very easy.

Also includes a Digital Audio Output to connect to your home cinema system for improved sound quality.

Video settings allows users to adjust the screen format according to the source signal, such as 4:3, 4:3 Pan Scan, and 16:9 letterbox format.

Measuring only 20cm wide by 3.3cm high by 9.5cm deep this receiver won’t take up much room and is therefore ideal where space is at a premium. A separate mains power adaptor and a full function remote control complete the package.

5.0 out of 5 stars all you need & at a good price, 1 Oct 2007
This review is from: Philips DTR220 Ultra Compact Digital Freeview Set Top Box (Electronics)
After the old Philips 200/05 box packed in after a so-called software "upgrade", I went for the 220 model and we haven't been disappointed yet. It's a small, yet stylish little black box (much smaller than the old 200/05). 7-day EPG works well, channel scan took about 5 minutes (despite the fact that we live in a low signal area and require signal boosters) and channel switching is fast (around a second, I'd say). So all in all the box seems to perform well so far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good Freeview, 12 Aug 2008

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Philips DTR220 Ultra Compact Digital Freeview Set Top Box (Electronics)
I was a bit disappointed when I read the numerous bad reviews for this Freeview box, as when I initially read the description and spec's it all sounded pretty good. I tried looking for an alternative Freeview box but was rather surprised by the real lack of quality set top boxes on the market. It seems that just about every box is made by a little heard of manufacturer who make it their aim to make the most hideous looking box on the market. Because of this I decided to take a chance and go for the Philips which at least came from a fairly reputable manufacturer and looks good.

Having bought and used the DTR220 for a couple of months now I have to say I am very impressed, and slightly confused as to why this item currently only has such a low rating. The box itself is very neat and compact, with the actual footprint being smaller than a DVD case and around twice as thick. It is finished in a stylish gloss black so it will match beautifully the current trend of gloss black TV's sitting on black glass stands.

Although this box is around £10 more expensive than some of the other boxes on the market, its worth bearing in mind that it does come with a scart lead which you might have to buy for around £10 if you buy another box anyway.

Hooked up to my digital aerial I have got a good signal on all the Freeview channels. I get little to no glitches with this box which is very impressive considering the problems Ive had in the past with other boxes. The EPG is great and easy to work with. It is also pretty quick when loading so you wont be pulling your hair out trying to find out what programme is on next.

Based on my experience with my DTR220 I have to highly recommend this item, despite the other critical reviews. My only real criticism is the "loading" time when you switch it on from stand by, but even that is a minor issue. This is a great looking box that works brilliantly when hooked up to a decent digital aerial. What more could you ask for!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good and cheap price, 25 Dec 2007
This review is from: Philips DTR220 Ultra Compact Digital Freeview Set Top Box (Electronics)
This is not the 1st digital freeview box i have brought but i have to say the best one yet. The menus are very easy to set up all nice and straight forward even a child could use them. Set up took only 5 mins. My only complaint is that the digital signal in my area is not strong enough so would recommend checking that out before buying any digital reciever. You might need to buy a booster for you arial. Cannot fault this product just have to play the waiting game for a digital tower to be placed nearer to my home to view all channels.
