Mine arrived first thing this morning. Well pleased,installation is a cinch and unbelivably fast. Unit response to remote control is very quick and it's so quiet you have to put your ear next to it to tell it's on.
Picture quality is very good so no complaints here and 5.1 audio as promised by hdmi.
UI is very different to Foxsat-hdr so it's going to take a while to get used to it. First impressions are that it's all pretty well instinctive (there's not a lot of detail in the manual).
Of all the outstanding questions in the queries thread the one that most seem to be asking about is what external video playback capabilities it has so decided to play with this first (the ordinary stuff like recording/vod can wait till a little later )
Used USB 3.0 2TB drive formatted ntfs but only used in legacy 2.0 mode.
First thing I found that a blu-ray rip with a .m2ts file extension wasn't recognised as a video file when played back from usb. Renaming to .ts worked so all files tested on USB had either a .ts or .mp4 extension
Streaming from Foxsat-hdr with custom firmware and Twonky Media 4.4.18
SD 576i and 1080i recorded without encryption both play with no problems.
Streaming from Laptop with content on 2TB usb drive using Twonky Media
Files from Foxsat (HD one with ac3 5.1 sound) no problem
1080p 24 Blu-ray at original bitrate ac3 5.1 OK
1920 x 1080 WMV downloaded from net played back in slow motion (same file plays OK by usb on HDR)
1920 x 1080 Movie trailer aac sound OK (that was a surprise)
1080p60 testclip from net plays OK
2TB drive connected by USB directly to HDR-1000s
All files playback perfectly
