Review by Mr. Mark Ivens for Sagemcom RTI90-500 T2 HD Digital TV Recorder with Freeview+ HD

Quick to set-up – plug in mains, arial and hdmi. 3 quick clicks and the box was up and running. HD channels and recording anything I might be missing. The football looks great, the channel guide gives me all the info I need, recording programmes is a one-button task. I usually struggle with boxes to work and flat pack furniture but this worked first time :-)Sagemcom RTI90-500 T2 500GB HD Digital TV Recorder with Freeview HD

After ordering this with some trepidation, after reading very mixed reviews, I was very pleased to find that once the software had automatically updated itself, this is a very good bit of kit. We’ve had no problems – the sound quality is good and there have been no glitches, the picture is excellent and the EPG is pretty good, compared to others I’ve used. The record facility is very easy to use. This has totally changed the way we watch television, for the better.
I can’t quite say we’ve no complaints – it does take a bit longer than we’d like when you switch it on, but that really isn’t a big issue.

The Sagemcom RT190-500 is a really tiny box for what it does – much smaller than the normal DVD players. However, it also has a separate fairly small transformer which isn’t so easy to place; I’ve put mine on top of the sub-woofer of a 5.1 loudspeaker system adjacent to the TV.
The RT190-500 has a good digital TV amplifier, but my previous (now defunct) Sharp Freeview recorder seemed to have a slightly better output signal. The main problem for me is that the aerial output from the RT190-500 to the TV doesn’t give a good signal in standby mode. If I’m watching Freeview using the TV tuner and switch the RT190-500 to standby, then the TV picture breaks up or I get a message that the signal is too weak. So, I need to power up the RT190-500 to get the aerial to work OK for the TV signal input.
That’s the weak points over. The quality of the RT190-500 is generally very good. It provides a good HD transmission on Freeview channels 50, 51 and 52 – I hadn’t realised that these channels existed before and thought you just tuned into BBC1 and you would get HD if it was transmitting an HD signal. You learn something every day! The recording arrangements are fine with straight forward controls; recording a series is working fine – recorded X-Factor, Dr Who and the James Bond films as “series” and so far it’s doing a grand job!
Overall, a pretty good Freeview and Freeview HD processor and recorder with a capacious hard-drive. Probably couldn’t have done better for the price.

This box is very simple to set up. The picture is excellent. However,the sound glitches every minute or so and the program guide is extremely tedious. The very helpful Sagemcom technical support line (08450900316) tell me that, at least, the sound fault will be fixed in the new software (Vx2.1.3) that will be broadcast and available on their website in the next month. If this does not fix it, I will return the box to Amazon.

As soon as your Hard Drive packs in bin it. No one can get replacement hard drives for Sagem set top boxes and Sagem won’t repair anything over a year old. It’s great while it’s working though, but for how long…
