I’m having issues with my TVs inbuilt Freeview going blank for a second every few minutes. It’s getting annoying so I’m going to get a separate Freeview receiver.
I’d like one that supports HD channels and it would be great if it also did Netflix, iPlayer, Amazon Prime etc.

Would a NowTV box do the job or is there something better out there?

this one has the freeview tuner.

the smaller now tv boxes don't have it.

no netflix or amazon on either though.

or there is the BT's YouView+ box twin HD tuners has netflix onboard now tv, iplayer but again no amazon, also 500gb hdd for recording freeview stuff but it's more than double the price of the now tv smart box. decent little machine though it's a humax underneath the bt logo, one drawback need to use ethernet no wi fi onboard.

I'd not touch anything by now tv since they ruined the first gen now tv box with an unavoidable update. A BT/talk talk youview box does everything you want other than Amazon and they're dirt cheap second hand.
