Samsung SIR-T165 HDTV Terrestrial Receiver
This product could be good if it worked as advertised
On the positive side, this product does a very good job of picking HDTV broadcasts off the air.  It also has a great set of digital interfaces to your other equipment, including DVI and Firewire.<br />However, this product has really disappointed me by overlooking some critical features that make it less attractive than lower-tech, more conventional alternatives.<br />For instance, there is an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) which would be great if there was actually any information  from broadcasters .  However, where I live in Florida there is absolutely zero information on the cable channels and pretty close to zero on the over-the-air channels.  The  product lets you receive both over-the-air and cable channels through two RF inputs, yet, there is no one button / easy way to swutch between the two sources.  You have to go through an onscreen menu and a very misnamed screen called 'memorize channels' to switch between them.  It's time consuming and, my guess is that some users will never figure it out because it looks like a set-up menu.  Lastly, although you can control Firewire devices, like a Digital VHS recorder, I found the fact that you could not use the electronic program guide to program recording just another reason why the EPG on this product is totally useless.<br />I'm hoping that Samsung will fix these major deficits in an upgrade of this product - at which point it would be worth buying.  If you haven't bought this product yet, wait for the fixes or go a more conventional approach.
