Humax PVR

[E31Shrew]

Does anyone have any idea who might be stocking these? Tried the normal places but still no luck....

Which one are you after??? You can get the Freeview ones from Humax Direct which saves you a bit of money.

If it's the freesat one then Maplin are taking orders and stating delivery times of 14 days.

An Argos in Nottingham and Aylesbury has stock for collection this weekend according to their website.

HTH

I heard the shortage of the Foxsat PVR was caused by a truckload being stolen just before xmas.

Stocks are returning. One of my mates picked hi sup last night from Argos so I waiting to see how he gets on with it, before ordering one.

I heard that too....Just outside Leeds. Didn;t think that would affect the whole market for a month though! Massive lorry....

Eee... bit impressive, these gizmos. Dropped lucky on one earlier from Argos; plugged straight into Sky dish stuff that has not been used for literally years, 90% signal quality and woohooo. 90 inch projector image as sharp as you like (bit too sharp judging by the cellulite wobble on Alison Goldfrapps legs...)

Only minor hitch was sussing the 'S/PDIF' digi out is really a common or garden toslink (why don't they just say that?)

Knocks spots off Sky for sure

Now, how do I combine two HDMI feeds into one...?

Buy a 2 into 1 adaptor!

Doesn't seem to work quite like that; seems to need a 'switch', which either needs to be manually set or needs its own power supply if automatic. I was hoping just to find a 'simple' spliced lead or whatever...

I've been looking and not been able to find one yet either...

I ended up reserving one on-line through Argos but had two or three sniffs of 'one left...' that evaporated whilst using their clunky website. Richer Sounds just told me 'waste of time, none in the country...'
