A question re ad skip on the topfield 7100 or the beyonwiz P2.
I've had a 5000pvrtMP for 5 or so years now & loved it! But it appears to be suffering the dreaded capacitor problem so is now on the back burner while I decide whether to fix it or not! The good news is it gives me an excuse to update, like we need one....
All I have used it for is taping tv shows & watching them at a later date, & occasionally copying onto a pioneer dvd/hdd recorder > dvd.
Now with out a doubt THE MOST IMPORTANT THING was the PBK so kindly made by Andrew Cullen (you da man Andrew !!) I was able to set ad skips to 3 mins, 30 sec, 10 sec forward & 10 sec, 30 sec, 5 min back.
With the research I have done I would love the convenience of an 'all in one box' like say the the panasonic BW-500 etc, but it appears these (& the newer BW850) don't have this feature. (will be very happy to have someone tell me I'm wrong on this??) BUT the ad skip is of far greater importance to me. The beyonwiz seems to have a few other 'handy' features as you would expect from a more media type player to have, but again, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING for me is the adjustability of the ad skip.
So, to the owners of the topfield 7100 or beyonwiz P2 (or anyone who has excellent knowledge of one, or both), which one has this HIGHLY IMPORTANT feature that works the best?
PS. money is not a consideration as I will buy whichever does this job the best, & I do use a logitech harmony 785 universal remote exclusively to operate the quagmire that is my entertainment set up.
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me.
Cheers
