“Excellent box but only after you have added the TAPs...”

written by on 01/02/2010

Excellent box but only after you have added the TAPs and firmware



Have owned 4 PVRs before the Toppy, and this one outshines all of them by a country mile, but there is an important caveat.....



Right out of the box this is a very ordinary PVR, you have to be prepared to devote some time and effort by installing some Topfield Application Programs (TAPs) and associated Firmware upgrades. These TAPs are free and can be downloaded from an independent user group located at Toppy.org.



The 'Killer TAP' is something called 'Mystuff' currently on release 6.1, and I would have to say this is a stunning piece of software, customizeable to the n'th degree and is far better than any other PVR front end I have seen or used, makes Sky Plus looks like a clunky piece of software that we all used in the 80's on those 'green screen' PCs !



So if you are prepared to put a bit of effort in, and can handle some simple software installs you will get an outstanding and powerful PVR
