    Good Points: Have owned this since July 2006 and it has been great. Never let me down and easy to record until now.


    Bad Points: If you miss the software updates you are stuffed!


    General comments: All was good with my Sagem PVR6240T up until a few weeks ago when it started to display on a daily basis that new channels had been detected on the flow. I ran the channel search a few times then went away for a weekend and when i came back i found i had lost the bbc channels. After the usual test of trying it in another room where my other box worked i phoned Sagem. The lady asked me what version of software i was running and i told her 4.5.5. She said that I had not accepted the software broadcast from July to make it into version 7 or 8 and as a result it will not get these channels back until i get this software download. She did say that they probably would run it again as they have been having lots of calls and directed me to www.dtg.org.uk where they keep a schedule of what software update is being run by what manufacturer. I'm annoyed as it cost me £120 and I rely on it to record. I 'm also annoyed that they choose to run a download for one week only in mid july when people were having holidays and i actually was only absent because it was birthday week!! In the meantime I have added the dtg web site to my favourites to look every few days to see if there may be another software download and I plan to call Sagem again. I can't take it back to Argos where I bought it as its now out of warranty but I cant afford to get another so it's just wait and see.

    Sagem PVR6240T review - About a fortnight ago a message appeared on my TV screen asking if I wanted to update the software. Unfortunately, a friend was watching it at the time and somehow managed to press the wrong button and the message disappeared! OK I thought, it will come back when I turn the box off and then on again like they usually do on these set top boxes, but no! I tried everything and eventually had to rescan for new channels because some of the main ones had disappeared, but I ...
