It has been a great little unit. Bought one a few years ago and I could have purchased the Tablo but the memory card I was using had some programming I wanted to watch and this type will play those videos without having to format into a different type
The set-up is simple. Programming isn't too terribly complicated either. The latest units still have an annoying habit of rebooting 2 or 3 times a day. This latest unit holds it's programming if power is cut off to it, whereas the older units had to be reprogrammed anytime power was cut off to it. Yes, this is the 3rd or 4th one I've purchased over the years. Think I should upgrade one of these days...LOL
hooked up easily where my old digital convertor was that went bad. The core innovations has brought in stations for me close to 50 to 60 miles away in 120 degree out different towers. I like that it list what your schedule is and the remote seems to function reliably. It scans for channels easily and seems to function as advertised at least in my circumstance. I am so glad walmart had this as it allows me to watch some of my favorite sports with an ota antennae and older magnavox tv that would not accept digital signals without the core innovations digital converter.
Gets way less channels than just hooking ANTENNA to tv...Had to factory reset and network reset tv and then my ONN ROKU TV found ANTENNA hooked to tv...again tried converter/DVR with same disappointment...only 18 channels found which most had no picture or scrambled...just hooking antenna straight to tv got 50 channels found which only 12 were poor/non watchable...🤷
3rd time's the charm? Doubtful. This is the 3rd one that I've bought for my grandma within 12 months. They last for a few months and then stop working. It's also the only one that Walmart stocks in-store. I'm going to buy one from Amazon this time so that she has one to use when this one inevitably stops working, to get out of this cycle with this brand.
Though it had a good picture quality I didn't like that it had a mechanical voice that repeatedly said STEREO STEREO STEREO each time I pressed one button to adjust something. Also the front of the unit did not show the channel number. Rather it showed the sequence number of the channel on the unit. Navigation was strange and frustrating.
I do not recommend this to anyone waste of money. It stopped working completely. It went out within the first couple weeks and I'm fixing to do a return I was planning on doing so anyways because a couple weeks we have had it ain't picked up but one sometimes two of our local channels and I think we had a total of three-five channels altogether it would pick up. We did better with our regular antenna.
The first one I bought stopped turning on. I thought it might be a fluke so I bought a second unit. Now it doesn't power on either. What a waste of my money. I never pay for the insurance on items I buy. I just don't buy from that company again. That is what I have decided to with this company.
This CTCB105 Digital Tv converter DVR does not do the DVR part very well. This seems to be the same hardware as the ematic AT103 that has the same issues. The programmed timer has problems keeping a scheduled timer set. The scheduled timer either disappears completely or loses the channel before the scheduled recording. I already have the Ematic AT103B that has this problem so I thought maybe the CTCB105 would be updated to fix this known issue but it has the exact same issues as the 8 year old unit. I returned the box and got a refund! If you are looking for a DVR for OTA, the CTCB105 is not reliable.
It is just cheaply made equipment that I know will probably fail the first time a lightning storm goes by... Why? Because this is the fourth (4th) piece of equipment, like this, that I have ordered... It is cheap to get and convenient to get but that is what Walmart seems to cater too...
