Fitted with comprehensive IP functionalities, this unit permits access to interactive services, media libraries, free browsing on the Internet, calling-up "Video-on-demand" services and use of HbbTV applications. (HbbTV is a technology that allows access to channel-related Internet content while watching TV.)
Interactive additional services and additional information about the current channel via internet
This extended electronic programme information service (ePID) allows TechniSat to offer a free current and comprehensive overview of a large number of channels. The programme preview extends up to seven days and has been extended to include a search function, a sorting function for genres and (with satellite reception) picture material on selected programmes. The timers can be activated quickly and easily via SiehFern INFO Plus.
Numerous functions and added values make television with TechniSat a great experience, with extensive possibilities. The ISI mode reduces this variety of options and is therefore ideal for children or elderly people, who feel unsure about the many setting options, when using the device. If the mode is activated, nothing can be accidentally changed, with the remote control. At the same time, the program information on the screen issimplified and texts are in extra large font. This is an advantage for people with poor eyesight.
The free TechniSat channel list manager does away with tedious manual channel scanning. When channels change frequency or switch on/off, this service provides an automatic way of updating the list of channels available. This process runs if you have agreed to updating. Customised lists are retained and amended where necessary.
This free updating service from TechniSat keeps the software on your device up to date. As soon as enhancements or improvements to the operating software are available, the set carries out an automatic software update at the appropriate time (adjustable in the menu on the TV). This ensures a high level of future-security and a wider and improved range of functions.
When using the TV for the first time you must create a few important settings (specifically adaptation to local conditions). Clear instructions from the installation wizard provided by TechniSat guide you through easy-to-understand dialogues, enabling you to carry out the required configuration easily and rapidly. Your TV will therefore be ready for use in a short time.
TechniFamily can be used to set up password-protected user profiles. Customised access options and restrictions can be defined for each profile, e.g. for selected channels, daily television viewing times and a maximum duration of use. In this way parents can adjust viewing behaviour as appropriate for the child.
HDTV stands for High Definition Television, thus for outstanding picture quality. With HDTV, pictures can be displayed in much greater detail and with much finer gradations. Contrast and contours are more precise and colours truer to their originals. Furthermore, the wide screen format on HDTV broadcasts corresponds much better to human visual perception. So it creates a more vivid impression overall.
The tuner is available as a twin unit. This means that two channels can be processed at once, i.e. you can watch one programme and record another at the same time. You can also watch two programmes in parallel (Picture in Picture).
Never miss a program again and record your favorite films or music without loss on USB data carriers such as USB hard drives (e.g. StreamStore 24 1TB USB 3.0) or USB sticks. Integrated into the home network, recordings with this device can also be saved directly on a shared, independent network storage device (NAS). NAS stands for Network Attached Storage and refers to the increasingly popular file server at home, which makes the data available for a whole range of end devices.
Detection of broadcast time postponement in DVR mode
The TV can be operated using both 230V to the normal mains and a 12V power supply system e.g. for a vehicle. Hence it is suitable for mobile use e.g. when camping.
This TV also enables you to receive encrypted channel content requiring payment (Pay TV). To receive Pay TV, you need a subscription to the relevant Pay TV provider.
This TV can be easily integrated into a home network via the integrated Ethernet interface (with optional additional WLAN adapter), enabling various multi-media devices such as a PC, TV, hi-fi, digital cameras and much more to be interconnected by UPnP/DLNA.
HTML5-based video-on-demand services such as YouTube can be used on ISIO devices thanks to integrated HTML5 support. As HTML5 video is the standard for integrating video on websites, there will be many additional HTML5 offerings available on ISIO receivers in the future.
Recorded programmes can be edited later via handy cutting and editing tools (e.g. to remove advertising slots).
This receiver is compatible with all TechniRouter products. It supports SCR technology with the extended DiSEqC protocol as per European standard EN 50494. SCR (Satellite Channel Routing) is a technology that is used to transmit multiple satellite channels to a specified receiver at a unique frequency in a single cable system.
