I had a hills briefly.

Same problems you list.

But add to that remote responding to other appliances remotes often

power cycling being a frequent requirement to get it responding to the remote again.

oh, and it was forgetting that it was supposed to do s-video out very often making everything black and white till it decided to get its act together again. At a later stage I couldnt even get it to do svideo anymore and that was the final straw for a return on the freeview saga of craptastic hardware that shouldnt be sold.

Episode 2 of that was the zinwell terrestrial box...
