HD PVR

The introduction of the new DStv HD PVR (High Definition Personal Video Recorder) decoder has further revolutionised the television experience with lifelike viewing, sharper images, more vibrant colours and precision picture quality.

The HD PVR allows you to view one channel, while recording two other channels simultaneously. It also offers you the following benefits:

* Record 150 hours of standard definition TV (double the SD PVR) or 50 hours of HD TV.
* 24 hour i-Plate
* Surround Sound capability
* Pause live TV programming
* Rewind programming
* Fast forward and slo-mo programming you have recorded

The HD PVR also introduces a new feature called “Favourite Channels”. If you select your favourite channels, you get the following :

* A personalised TV Guide, listing the schedules for just those channels.
* A personalised viewing environment (like the current bouquets on other decoders) which includes only your selected channels. This means that when scanning through the channels, you only see the channels you have selected, so no more hopping over unwanted or unavailable channels.
* A Favourite Channels Grid – similar to the existing channel grid, but listing only the channels you selected, making it easier to change between channels.
