Good replacement.
Bought to replace a faulty Humax which was 10 yrs old. The Manhatten is a good replacement with updated connectivity, so we've got i player also now. So far after 3 weeks use no complaints.

I already have a Manhatton vidio box and when my wife had to enter a care home she was lost without the box so the answer was to buy another, she now is more than content with her new box so thanks

would not recommend.
It works but not very quickly as the storage fills up. Can take over a second to respond to remote control buttons. Clumsy to use. Would not recommend.

EXCELLENT PVR
EXCELLENT TWIN TUNER PVR. VERY INTUITIVE SET UP AND OPERATION

Generally good unit, with 2 drawbacks.
Generally I am happy with this unit and the fact it receives HD channels is an improvement on the model it replaces, with picture quality on all channels being excellent. However there are two more negative factors that other buyers might care to be aware of: 1) Loop-through reception of TV channels does not function when this Manhattan model is in standby mode. 2) The channel being watched appears briefly on the TVscreen, but is not visible on the front of the Manhattan unit. Point 1) is a more serious/significan failng in my view, point 2) is a minor irritation.

Super recorder
I bought this to replace the T2 I have had for years and it is just brilliant. Very smooth set up and so easy to use. The remote is well laid out and it is so easy to record. Love it! Worth every penny.

Hello Phill,
I can advise the following for the Manhattan T4-R 500GB Freeview Play 4K TV Recorder:
You can only record from the live Freeview channels, you won't be able to record from an external connected device such as a fire stick connected to your TV as the recorder won't see it.
Thanks for using Q & A.

Hello B Bee,
I can advise the following for the Manhattan T4-R 500GB Freeview Play 4K TV Recorder:
Apologies, this isn't possible.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello,
The Manhattan T4-R needs a TV aerial for live Freeview channels and recording, but it requires a WiFi (or Ethernet) internet connection to access Freeview Play's catch-up services (like BBC iPlayer, ITVX) and on-demand content, plus software updates and programme images. You can use it without internet for basic live TV and recording, but you lose the "smart" features. It does not use a satellite dish; that's for Freesat.
Have a nice day!

Hello Susie,
The supplier has advised the following for the Manhattan T4-R 500GB Freeview Play 4K TV Recorder:
"The box can tune the channels if the Multiplexes are within the UHF band. However the EPG will differ from that of Freeview and scheduled recordings will not work in the same way as it does in Freeview EPG. We have not tested our box in Republic of Ireland to be able to comment on the full functionality and also you will not be able to access the On Demand services offered through Freeview."
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hello Jimbo,
