(DStv is a multi-channel digital satellite TV service in Africa)
The first decoder (HD PVR) was launched in July 2008, retailing at the price of R2999,99 currently.
The second decoder (HD PVR 2P) was launched in May 2010 for a cheaper price of R1999,99 for people who wants a HD PVR but can't afford the 4-tuner HD PVR.
The HD PVRs offer you the following benefits:
Original HD PVR model (4-tuner) : View one channel, while recording another two simultaneously
New HD PVR 2P model (2-tuner): View one channel, while recording one other channel simultaneously
Record 150 hours of standard definition TV (double the SD PVR) or 50 hours of HD TV.

* These features are available on the original HD PVR model only. These features will be rolled out to the HD PVR 2P model before the end of this year.
The HD PVRs also include a feature called "Favourite Channels". If you select your favourite channels, you get the following:
A personalised TV Guide, listing the schedules for just those channels.
A personalised viewing environment (like the current bouquets on other decoders) which includes only your selected channels. This means that when “surfing” through the channels, you only see the channels you have selected, so no more hopping over unwanted or unavailable channels.
A Favourite Channels Grid – similar to the existing channel grid, but listing only the channels you selected, making it easier to tune between channels.
While the HD PVRs may not be dual view PVRs, all our HD PVRs are XtraView capable and cater to your needs. XtraView takes care of the second and in some cases, third viewing environment at no additional subscription fee to what you currently pay for on the Dual View decoder or SD PVR.
