I ordered the TVIX M-6620N on April 9, 2011 at Amazon Marketplace from the seller MediaConcept USA. Because I had been ordering so many items from Amazon, my credit card company thought there was a fraudulent charge, which was totally wrong. It took until Monday morning, April 11, to unblock the credit card problem. That same day, MediaConcept USA received the order, installed the latest software, and shipped the unit. I am extremely impressed with their service. I received the PVR at noon on April 14, installed the Western Digital 2 TB WD20EARS hard drive, and that same day I recorded three programs. This PVR is on my home computer network because an ethernet cable goes from my living room, where the PVR is, to my computer room. I can download the high-definition recorded programs to my computer, edit out the commercials, convert them to the AVCHD format, and burn them on DVD-R.

I have been experimenting with some of the other features of this unit, such as downloading music and pictures to the PVR. Since the unit is on my network, this is easy to do. So far, I have not found any problems with the PVR.

I have been searching quite a while for a digital video recorder that can record high-definition programs and offload them. This unit meets all my requirements. The only other DVR that can do this is TiVo but then you are stuck with a monthly subscription fee.

Great concept and nice-looking PVR. The machine is new so it's buggy but with the active development I am hoping that it has lots of potential after a few months. The remote is poorly designed. I bought it in anticipation that it would work with NetFlix -- but not yet.
