Sagem Freeview Software Update

Posted on by  admin

Today I contacted Sagem settop box help and tech. Support line, they confirmed it was the freeview network enhancement that has caused this problem and that they were working on a software fix, but it would be a couple of weeks before it will be ready and you will be prompted to take a software download.

Sagemcom, formerly Sagem, is the first company that's sent us a Freeview HD recorder. The RTI90-320 is only the third Freeview HD set-top box we've seen, following Humax and Goodmans' Freeview HD receivers. For the extra money over the playback-only units you get a second Freeview HD tuner and a 320GB hard disk, a 2.5in Hitachi CinemaStar C5K500 which is almost silent. This provides up to 160 hours of recording time in standard definition, and around half this in HD. If you need more, there's also a 500GB model, the RTI90-500 for around £300.

Software

As we've said before, a Freeview HD player is a rather short-sighted purchase as it's still expensive, but offers none of the benefits of a PVR. These include being able to pause live TV, rewind it, record two shows at once and, with almost all boxes these days, also watch a recorded programme while the two tuners are recording. Sagemcom's box is much smaller than we'd expected, with a footprint little bigger than an A5 sheet of paper.

The glossy black finish will require constant polishing to keep fingerprints and dust at bay, and the absence of any curves means it won't win any design awards. The compact dimensions mean there's limited space for a display and, while the blue-LED digits are easily readable, there are only four of them.

This means the display is only really useful for showing the time and channel number. The USB port on the front looks inviting, but is currently used only for updating firmware. The Ethernet port at the rear isn't used either - hopefully this will eventually be enabled via a firmware update to bring BBC iPlayer and other services. Similar updates could allow video, photo and music playback via USB, but no timescale has been given for any of this. As it stands, the RTI90-320 differs from existing Freeview PVRs only in that it allows you to watch the three new HD channels from BBC, ITV and Channel 4.

Thanks to the bundled HDMI cable, installation is a doddle and once you've run through the setup screens, searching for channels and setting your TV's resolution (up to 1080p), you're ready to go. Bear in mind that the power supply is external, so you'll need to find room behind your TV for yet another power brick. The remote control has a clean layout that's easy to read and the navigation pad is surrounded by menu, media, back and exit buttons. The media button brings up a list of recordings so you don't need to trawl through menus.

We particularly like that you can rename recordings, but the real gem is the ability to create folders and move recordings into them. This is ideal for keeping series together. Hit the guide button and you get programme information for the next eight days.

Although the EPG isn't cached in its entirety, there's still plenty of information visible when you resume from standby, so there's no waiting to see what's on immediately. Seven channels are visible at all times, but you can also choose how much information is shown - either one, two or four hours' worth. As with all Freeview boxes, you get the option to record an entire series or just one show. A nice touch is that you're offered alternative showings of the same programme if both tuners are already recording other shows. As well as recording two channels at once, you can watch a recorded programme, and all three can be in HD - just as you'd expect.

Sagem was originally tipped to be one of the first manufacturers of Freesat receivers, but we've had to wait more than a year for its first effort - the DSI86 HD - an HD zapper box with PVRs set to follow before Christmas. In that time we've seen an assortment of HD and SD boxes appear, ranging from budget efforts from Bush, Grundig and Goodmans to a few blessed with notable multimedia enhancements from Metronic and Technisat. So where does the DSI86 stand in comparison? Closer to the former, as it happens. Sagem has teasingly included a front-mounted USB port for attaching storage devices and even buttons for accessing media files on the remote control but, sadly, the functionality is not actually supported on this model and it's not certain if it will be added in future via a software update.

The case design mirrors Sagem's current Freeview PVRs, being a squat, rather plasticky, black construction. Channel-changing and power buttons are set alongside an amber LED readout that tells you the number of the channel to which you're currently tuned. A 12V external power supply will be a boon to caravanners who like to take their entertainment on the road with them and it also ensures that the receiver doesn't run hot after prolonged use. The accompanying remote is again familiar – light grey but still eminently functional. Those multimedia buttons may be redundant but most key functions get a button, although a greater variation in their size wouldn't have gone amiss. Forever amber The rear has a single LNB input and AV connectors comprise an HDMI, twin Scarts (with RGB on the TV Scart) and both coaxial and phono audio outputs. Ethernet connectivity should make it compatible with on-demand services such as BBC iPlayer (not available at the time of writing).

Freeview

Setup is pretty standard for a Freesat box. You enter your postcode, pick a desired PIN-lock code and the receiver then scans for Freesat channels.

Channels can be accessed from a single list where they can be hidden and sorted into up to four favourites, labelled A to D. If you want non-Freesat channels there's a separate menu where you can enter frequency, symbol rate and polarity for your desired channel – but not select satellites to scan. Located channels are added to the main list and can also be added to favourites lists. The EPG looks much like those on other Freesat boxes, giving you the option of viewing a guide for all channels or certain types such as news or radio. You can view a grid of data for eight channels at a time and skip back and forth in two-hour or daily chunks. Selecting a show brings up a synopsis in the top-left corner of the screen.

The guide can also be used to schedule timer events with once, daily, weekly and weekday repeat options. Unfortunately, the decision to use the colour amber throughout the software – including the EPG – proves somewhat garish and occasionally hard to read (on the programme information banner in particular). In its favour, the receiver makes quick work of loading text and red-button interactive services. The HDMI effect Although we suspect that anyone buying an HD box will probably be relying exclusively on the HDMI output, standard-definition Freesat pictures are rather soft looking viewed via TV Scart, even with RGB enabled.

The HDMI output gives better results with standard definition sources and effective upscaling to 720p and 1080i makes good-quality SD broadcasts look appreciably sharper as a result. True high-definition broadcasts from BBC HD are also crisply presented. Audio performance is decent and on a par with Sagem's Freeview boxes, with added sharpness audible when using the S/PDIF output. Follow TechRadar Reviews on Twitter.
