Hi there,

Is this the TDS865IMC? Why does this decoder have less recording capabilities than the previous HD PVR TDS850IMC?

  No you will need to add this feature as an extra cost to your subscription fee.

  I have just bought a decoder for R599 (I think that was the price). I would like to change to a PVR decoder. Please let me know if there would be a discount if I returned the decoder. I still have the original box and only only had it for about 6 months.
  Thank you

    Hi Anne,
    
    You can try to return it to the shop you purchased it from. They might swap it for you, but it all depends on how old the decoder is. They might have a problem if it is older that 14 days, so please hurry.
