BambaTV decoder has PVR capability too... I'll try check if the quality matches that of HBOX (Full HD recording).

About the channel count, all open STBs will exhibit that repetition. Bamba is expected to come tops when they later lock in their exclusive content to their STBs.

PS : I'm yet to see an FTA STB with a decent menu interface & ergonomically acceptable remote control unit.
