Hi everyone

Am thinking of buying an Ultraplus 900 HD. Just wondering if anyone has had reliability issues with this box.

And are there any better alternatives out there.  Key things I'm looking for (apart from reliability) are (i) excellent picture quality (ii) recording ability and (iii) being able to pop in a MySky card.

Thanks in advance

I have the UltraPlus 900HD micro PVR and initially had a lot of problems with it not being compatible with an external WD HDD I was using I eventually replaced the firmware with v1.08.79 and it has behaved reasonably well just 1 lockup in 6mths and that might be someone using an industrial welder across the road, am thinking of installing a UPS.
