You connect to your TV via Hdmi **Q: What's the difference between this box and the white hdr1100s** A: The colour. **Q: do i need a professional to connect the box to my tv for me? i have got a sky+ box at present, but i am planning on replacing it with a freeview box.** A: The service is provided by more than one satellite co-located at 28.2E on satellites provided by SES Astra not Eutelsat. Provided your dish is correctlty aligned and has not suffered movement due to high wind or sighting obstructions by growing trees or new buildings you should get all the channels available on freesat by simply removing your sky Box inputs and connecting to the Humax and running the setup menu. If you can't get all the channels or some suffer artifacting you will need to have your dish alignment and LNB/cabling checked. I worked in satellite communications for over 20 years. **Q: Hi, we have an old dish but it only has one cable coming out from it. Do we need more than one cable in order for this? If so, how easy/costly is it?** A: Best to get a new 80 cm dish and at least 2 LMB's, one for record and one for play back. Cost depends on where you are and who you get to do it. €50 to 100 depending on how difficult the wiring is to and from the box and the dish ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great box of tricks that's quick and easy to install *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 3 June 2016* Finally ditched Sky and chose this as my replacement. It arrived today. Took out of the box, looks quite good but felt nervous at the lightness compared to my old Sky box. It came with everything needed (including remote batteries). Switched satellite & HDMI cables out of the Sky box in the easy defined new locations. Connected power and hoped the wireless connection would work. All very easy and only took a couple of minutes. Turned on and followed a simple step by step process that came up on the screen. Entered postcode to get channels, it auto checks the signal strength and auto connected to my Wi-fi just needed to add my security code. All set up and ready to go.Quick and responsive with normal TV. Guide - easy to navigate and record, series link etc. 'On Demand' only had a couple of channels, so I went to the settings menu and checked for an update (which installed in about 3 minutes). Re-booted and the when accessed 'On Demand', much more available, including YouTube and Netflix (with 1 month free trial and packages starting from £5.99 after that).The picture quality is very good and the unit is quite responsive. I live in a rural location with very low internet speed and had no problem streaming BBC I Player and Netflix.Has a nice little feature that if you watch a channel and there is an HD version, a little prompt pops up and you can push 'OK' to take you there immediately. Also, if a new programme taster clip appears between programmes a pop up gives you an option to set up recording without moving away from your programme or into other menus.Not very keen on the remote - clicking noise when you press the buttons. That said, the layout is good with all the main buttons in the middle and the icons easy to follow.Obviously, only day one for me, so cannot comment on reliability. I've had no problems and am pleasantly surprised by the product. The performance and features are much better that I was expecting. Also, comes with a 2 year warranty. Very happy with the purchase and think it is good value for the money. With this and my 'Now TV box' can save loads compared to my old Sky package and still watch much the same! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A "NO WORRY' set up, very clearly signed remote and designed for people, both in off and on screen modes! *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 28 May 2016* This is a review based on out of the box, replacement for SKY whose prices are SKY rocketing, for people who are worried by new tech stuff or have not time to spend reading through manuals! All the other stuff is on reviews. Opened the box, and had left the SKY cables just where they were when I pulled the box off the shelf and removed it. Put the much, much smaller and well-styled HUMAX HDR-1100S on my knees and connected the cables where they obviously went in the back and put the power on. It has one of those box transformers and not just a plug. Put the batteries into the remote and then actually looked at its face. The first "Wow! with 'Recordings' written on a button meaning 'recordings', etc. etc.was a revelation. You know that people with experience have designed this! I did not even need the quick guide to get around the menus. ^ P is page up on the guide or programme up, Home is every option, like settings etc., listed beautifully clearly and the record button is a red R in a circle. There ends the need to think, in my opinion except a button marked STB, top left. I used it following instructions for setting up my television to work with the remote. My Samsung used code 115, a common model. The only thing that I was stupid about was realising that the 'Remote Guide' at he back of the manual, was in double columns, but that was seconds in finding out..One feature that I found really useful, not having a written guide, was the SHOWCASE option. It was a quick way to pick up a programme that I had missed and was like the 'recommended viewing' of some written guides. It is actually created by real reviewers it seems!All so logical. A 'TV guide' page own screen that is so intuitive and CLEAR! My BT freeview box was like a maze in comparison.CLEARLY and IN EASY TO READ PRINT, I recommend this product!!!! It just works! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 90% great 10% really stupid! *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 9 March 2020* I brought this product to replace Sky as I wasn’t watching anything other than the terrestrial channels and frankly Sky had annoyed me by refusing a discount to a loyal customer.I was put off by the price but reasoned that it would pay for itself in a few months by not paying for Sky tv.On the positive side. It records TV whilst you are able to watch another channel. You can pause live TV ( for 2 hours ). The picture quality is easily as good as Sky and the program guide is nearly as good as SkyOn the down side; Humax have done some really dumb things that would be easy to fix but they haven’t.Chief among these is the remote control. It has two modes TV and STB. STB is set top box and is used for Channel selection / recording etc. This is the mode you are in 95% of the time unless you want to turn the tv off.The thing Sky does that Humax doesn’t is it auto switches to STB mode when you press a button that is only relevant to STB such as record / TV guide / pause / play. With the Humax it just looks like it is not working ( because it is in TV mode not STB). I have read reviews where people are sending the boxes back because they think they are flaky. Humax are really being dumb here by not taking into account how people would use their product.Another idiosyncrasy is that they have an App Store that you would think you could get Netflix or Amazon Prime on. But noooo - it looks like it was knocked as a school kids project with apps that nobody would use - ever. And you can’t even download anything useful either. The really annoying part about this is you think it must be you doing something wrong because nobody would go to the trouble of creating an App Store and then put nothing on it. I mean what were you thinking Humax!The last annoyance is catch up tv. You can use iplayer and itv hub but you must watch it live. Sky would let you go to catch Up and then record to watch later.In summary then. It sounds like I’m dissing the Humax but it is a really good box. It is worth the money. Humax are 90% of the way to making this box a Sky killer but for some reason Refuse to land the killer blow.Come on Humax - all it would take is a software update! ## Frequently Bought Together - HUMAX HDR-1100S 500 GB Freesat with Freetime HD TV Recorder - Black - HUMAX RM-I08U Original Remote Control for HB-1000S Freesat FreeTime Satellite Receiver - VINABTY RM-108UM Replacement Remote Control RM-I08UM Remote Control Replace for HUMAX RM-I08UM RM-108UM for Humax FreeSat+ TV HDD Recorders HDR-1000S(all) HB-1000S HB-1100S HDR-1100S Remote Control --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48213322-hdr-1100s-500-gb-freesat-with-freetime-hd-tv-recorder](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48213322-hdr-1100s-500-gb-freesat-with-freetime-hd-tv-recorder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-30*
