How does the TF5800PVR differ from European and Australian Topfield PVRs?

0

The TF5800 is based on the TF5000PVRt. The main difference is that the TF5800 has support for MHEG, which is used to provide interactive services in the UK. The UK remote control also looks slightly different, which may cause a few problems with certain TAPs if the keys they need aren’t there. UK models with their original firmware had other incompatibilities with TAPs, and lack a bookmark feature. These (and other issues) were resolved in the May 2005 firmware update.
