I can also state that the Avtex is a superb piece of kit, albeit you need a strong signal with freeview, which is not always available with the status aerial.

I do have a problem, however. I wanted to use the card reader to view photo's from my camera, but alas, my camera uses XD cards, and the Avtex does not take these.

I have been told (by Avtex) that a card reader which needs no seperate software (i.e. plug and play) and which supports USB 1.1 will work using the USB socket. However, I have tried three so far, and the tele just reports, no usb device.

Has anyone tried, and found an XD card reader which does work with this, OR does anyone know if there is such a unit which takes XD cards and plugs into one of the other card slots, converting from XD to say SD.

Hi Steve

I am beginning to think that the USB socket on my Avtex is faulty, as I have tried 3 USB card readers, all supposed to be 1.1 compatible, which Avtex say it should, but it does not recognise the USB device!

Maybe I should go back to Avtex to see what warranty is on the TV!

Thanks for your input,
Michael

Hi,

We have the 19" Avtex 7 in 1 TV which we bought from Transleisure last year and we have been very pleased with all the functions and the quality of the picture. Haven't used the freeview as we have Sky in the van nor have we tried the card reader so I cannot comment of that side of the TV but everything else we have tried has been great and we have had no problems. Fingers crossed that it remains that way as they are rather on the expensive side - but I guess you get what you pay for (hopefully!)
