Hi-def TV is fast becoming mainstream, and the prices of the hardware needed to receive it are falling despite the weak pound. German brand Golden Interstar is new to us. Here, we look at its GI-S900CI – a single-tuner receiver with support for DVB-S2 and hi-def, in addition to regular standard-def DVB-S. As with other sub-£200 receivers, external USB storage is needed for PVR operation. Features include HDMI and component hi-def outputs (with upscaling of standard-def), CAM emulation and a pair of CIs.
