Humax is releasing two Freeview personal video recorders under the Freeview+ brand.

The first model, the PVR-9300T, has a 320GB hard drive and HDMI upscaling and will retail at around £199. The second, the PVR-9150T, has a 160GB hard drive and is priced at around £150.

Both have twin tuners, and the Humax Freeview+ interface includes features such as seven-day schedule information, series linking and split recording.

"There are still more than 20 million TV sets in the UK that haven't been upgraded to digital and opting for a DTR is a great solution for those viewers looking to go digital," said Humax commercial director Graham North.

"The launch of the PVR-9300T and PVR-9150T reinforces the Humax brand as a key player in the digital TV market. The new range offers high performance devices to suit every budget and delivers a wealth of features to put digital entertainment at the fingertips of UK TV viewers."

The Freeview recorder brand was renamed from Freeview Playback to Freeview+ at the beginning of the month.
