- Horrible device
I was a huge archos fan after I picked up a portable unit from them a few years ago. It was great. So I bought this as soon as it was available. Its horrible. I only was ever interested in playing back video with it. Not playing music or not recording, so I dont know if those actually even work. Probably not. First I had to buy a plugin to actually play my videos. Thats so ridiculous, but I did it anyway. It did play my videos, but way way worse than my pc ever did. The unit just doesnt ... Read More

- Great Device, still a little rough around the edges
I've had this device for over a month now and here are my impressions.

The first thing I had to do was to update the firmware. This was a REAL pain the rear. The device has an "auto-update" feature, but it doesn't seem to work without the latest version of the firmware. ACK. Newer buyers might have a newer version pre-installed.

Once I finally got the latest version of the firmware and had purchased a couple of the plugins, I must say it's a really cool machine.

- Great networked DVR
I have many Archos products and the gen 5 series is the best of the lot. Archos TV+ is everything they promised. You can network it with your computer or other Archos wifi enabled units. The TV+ does not include a tuner so you will need a tuner source such as a VCR,DVR,cable box or a sat receiver. TV+ controls the tuner source with a built in infrared emitter and scheduled recordings are easily programmed with an on screen menu. I would give the TV+ five stars but I'm having a problem with setting up ... Read More

- Not yet completely matured
After 3 weeks of using this device, I have mixed feelings towards it:

- This is an useful product, and I'm sure there is a market for it;

- The wifi and network capabilities are great and the hardisk is of decent size;

- The setting up was easy, as was the connection to my wifi network;

- It is easy to program a recording but it could be simplified. Actually the whole interface is workable, but it could be more user friendly;

- The price ... Read More

- Has potential, but purposely hobbled by Archos to get more money
OK, first here's what the Archos TV+ will NOT do (as there is a lot of confusion out there)

1. It will not surf the Internet. This requires an additional $30 plug-in.
2. It will not play surround sound encoded movies. It's not that you just don't get the surround sound, it won't play the movie period. This requires another $20 plug-in.
3. It will not play H.264 (.mov or .mv4) movies. This will run you yet another $20 for the plug-in.
4. It will not record TV shows. It does ... Read More
