    Hi there,

    I'm interested in purchasing a Freesat HD box to hook up to a now disused Sky TV Dish, also has to have a dual tuner DVR, capable of pause/rewind and series link.

    Is it possible that these capabilities are built in to a screen, as I am also on the lookout for a new 42-50" HD TV?

    Hi.  Certainly some TV's have a freesat tuner built in,  but they don't offer the same sort of flexibility as a dedicated freesat box particularly in the ability to pause and rewind.  Really a freesat tv will allow you to view freesat as it is broadcast but little more.  A better option would be a freesat PVR.  The Humax HDR1000 would be a good wee box http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-12055-hdr1000s-1tb.aspx
