Humax T800 80-hour Digital Video Recorder with TiVo Image quality is very poor……. – Michael D. Adams – South Louisiana
Where do I start? first off….I have 3 tivo’s, two regular and this humax….when i first had the humax hooked up, i noticed the picture looked almost like it was breaking up, it was on a CRT TV and hooked up using an s-video so i blamed the problem on this. in the mean time i bought a 32″ LCD, this time i hooked up the humax using the RGB component cables thinking it would work going all digital….BUT, this did no good either. i used every image quality setting available, all this did was to increase the file size of the recording and reduce the burning size of the DVD. this is not my primary DVD player, so i didn’t have the drive failure like the others. also, mine is one of the “made in mexico” tivo’s, the reason i know this is because i replaced the original HD as soon i got it for a larger drive, btw, it was a “maxtor” (good named brand drive). over all, this is a piece of carp, don’t buy it…..it’s no wonder tivo stopped selling it!

Evidently, TiVo got Humax (a Korean company) started in introducing their TiVo by manufacturing them first on the same assembly line. These are marked “Made in Mexico.”

On a receint visit to Circuit City, I saw four boxed examples of this TiVo on the shelf. Two were marked “Made in Mexico” and two were marked, “Made in China.” All of the displays were marked “Made in Mexico.”

The one that I received directly from TiVo is marked “Made in Mexico.” It appears to be of the same exact quality as the TiVo branded machine that I have owned for over one year. Except for the face plate, color of the case and a the color of the screen backgrounds and the inclusion of Humax on a few of the displays, it is nearly identical to the TiVo branded unit.

I don’t know if the ones marked “Made in China” are of the same quality or if they will continue making them on the regular TiVo plant in Mexico. But, be aware that there are two versions with different UPC codes.
