Freeview Play Recorder FVP-5000T 500GB (Refurbished) Reviews

4.2 Rating 452 Reviews
The FVP-5000T performs all of its functions very well but is painfully slow to process any commands. This is 2022 and most people take for granted the virtualy instant response to key clicks and button pushes. However, the Humax FVP-5000T does not meet these expectations.

Where can you get a digi box that does all this... Good service too. Great picture quality, better than our old YouView HD box. Getting the apps could be a bit easier though and a decent volume pass through on remote control would be nice.

It's a handy box, easy to browse the schedule and pick a programme to watch or record. Not quite so easy to use as the little BT box it replaced, somehow a but fussy about selecting a live programme from certain channels (but easy to work around by entering the channel number). Really useful to have the recording feature. Although it was refurbished, it looks good as new and it came with all the accessories.

It seems excellent so far. Just like brand new, came complete with all the necessary cables etc. and very easy to use. The facility to record up to 4 programmes at once is very convenient.

The machine will not permit playback of recording. Most disappointed! Too much trouble complaining and sending it back. Just have to put up with something that does not perform the underlying functions for what it was purchased.
