I have no issues recording/downloading to internal or external

I have no problem recording and watching another channel on my xrs4500 with 64gb internal storage or my U5 with 1 TB hard drive.

As a matter of fact I have one service provider that allows me to have 4 feeds and last week just as an experiment I was recording 3 channels and watching the 4th channel live on my xrs4500 with 64gb internal storage, all 3 channels recorded successively while I was watching the 4th channel live with the Buzz 5 program.

These people did a GREAT job on the Buzz 5 program!!

Wow thats great i was thinking of getting the x 5 to replace my xrs4500 but apart from av1 codec cant see the point,if you download a film is it quicker downloading to hhd on you u5 or same as internal storage?im in uk u5 not on sale yet i could buy via buzz global.

Other then the extra storage the U5 has over the XRS4500 I see no difference in the operation of it. The XRS4500 running the latest Buzz 5 program is an amazing box!

Now the XRS4500 running the Buzz 4 program that is a different store, I could NEVER record anything the way you should have been able to with the Buzz 4 program but with the Buzz 5 program it performs like it was made to!

If you have it turned off it will even wake up to record a program you have scheduled to record if it is running the latest version of the Buzz 5 program..
