Twin tuners most desirable feature for me
This replaces an elderly panasonic tv and dvd recorder. It ca record 2 channels simultaneously. The smart features are a bonus, but note some apps are missing for now. Very easy to set up.

Stick start but now all good
Bought this to replace my old Humax box. Initial problems trying to record as the box said there was a Hard Disk problem. A factory reset cleared this error but then there was a problem with using the My5 app where if I tried to access a programme on catch up the box rebooted. Contacted Manhattan technical support and they supplied a Firmware update with instructions that cleared that problem. Since then I have had an email advising me of a software update which has been applied successfully. Now working well and all carried out with only one remote control which is a blessing.

Smashing tv recorder
One month in and everything is performing wonderfully. Set up was simple and the TV recorder has already bought itself in the number of children's films and shows I have recorded for the rugrats, well worth it.

Easy to set up and it's working perfectly. Nothing to complain about!

Hello Harry,
The supplier has advised the following for the Manhattan T4-R 500GB Freeview Play 4K TV Recorder:
"A minimum of 3Mbps is recommended for internet video when using apps. Faster broadband may still be affected by usage from other devices, reducing the speed available for the T4•R."
