Good lord, $1200? I don't think so- I can use a Raspberry Pi system for under $100, but my main computer is a Lenovo server, under $400, quiet, low energy consumption. I haven't turned it off in over a year, just reboot for new kernels.
Guess we are talking OTA in this thread... Agree you can do all that stuff with PC/Pi... I played with adding a OTA tuner and PC... Not anything I wanted to mess with although I have the tech abilities to do it. But PC's etc are not even close to those Magnavox's. BTW when I got mine they were <> $300. The one I linked is a 2 tuner device... so that is not too bad.
Put the dates, programs you want in and it runs a bit like a VCR of yesteryear but there is a display of what you recorded which is entered when you are setting up the programing.
The 3 I have cost <>$1000... All single tuners.. No cable... Save $75/mo... You do the math over the 10 years I have had them.
