Sharp Electronics has updated its digital television recorder and introduced the TU-R160HA.

The new model supports the latest Freeview Playback status for the most up-to-the-minute, one-touch recording features with an eight-day TV guide.

The TU-R10HA upgrades the original model launched by Sharp by offering a series recording feature - "series link" at the simple push of a button.

Freeview Playback allows viewers to record more than 40 free digital TV channels and so each member of the family can create their own TV schedule.

Other Freeview Playback features include a favourites list, schedule tracking, split recording and multiple/alternative timer record, as well as live pause.

The TU-R10HA offers twin tuners, a 160GB hard drive, twin SCART connectivity and Picture in Picture functionality.

The TU-R160HA is currently on sale for around £160.

  • I was very lucky to have picked up an out of the box one in Tesco. I took a chance as it had no remote and it recorded from the menu but I really needed a remote control for ff/rw, etc.

    I made enquiires and was told I could get one for #16.68 from a company called Wizard.

    In the end I was happy to get one from TVRepairman fro 8.60 which incl p&p and is an original, not a generic.

    I am over the moon because it works and I picked the DTR up for far, far less than it is originally worth.

    Tesco also felt it fair to reward me with a ten pound money voucher to cover cost of remote assomeone who has to live on Incapacity, I was well pleased.

    So thanks to Sharp for a super DTR (the Goodmans and 3 ThomsonTUTV's were all returned, and thanks also to Tesco and TVRepairman.

    Some people do deal in fair trading.
