    Overview

    This feature-packed PVR player from Panasonic is designed to make your TV work for you. 4K Ultra HD quality and 4K upscaling makes your older content look excellent on a compatible TV. Wireless connectivity through Wi-Fi makes it easy to stream content from Netflix and other providers.

    Amazing pictures need incredible sound; and that’s why Panasonic have created this device to be Hi-Res audio ready. This simply means that you’ll hear the finer details in movies and music played on this device. A twin HD tuner and 1TB internal hard drive makes it easy to record your favourite shows for later viewing. If you have a lot of movies saved digitally on your computer, the provided USB port makes it easy to watch them on the big screen.
    4K Quality

    With a total of 8 million pixels in every image, 4K resolution will give you ultra-high definition pictures and life-like clarity. Four times the quality of full HD content, 4K content is incredibly sharp and colour-rich.

    4K Upscaling

    4K content is four times the quality of full HD content. So if your TV is 4K capable and you’re watching something a bit older, 4K upscaling increases the quality of your older content to near 4K quality for an improved viewing experience.

    Internal Storage

    This device comes with internal memory that allows you to keep copies of your favourite content. This makes it easier to immediately access your favourite content.

    WiFi Connectivity

    Connect to your local wireless network to take full advantage of this device’s capabilities. Share your data over a greater area thanks to the extended range that WiFi offers compared to Bluetooth technology.

    Easy to use.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this recorder to replace my Top Field that I've had for years. This model is so easy to use (considering I rarely read the manual). Easy to set up and easy to navigate. Very happy with my purchase.

    Easy set-up and great functionality.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Panasonic DMR-HWT260GN is a reliable recorder for everyday use. Setup was simple, and the menu system is easy to navigate and similar to the old model I've replaced. The dual tuners are very useful, allowing me to record two programs at once while watching another recording. Recording quality is good, and playback is smooth, including fast-forwarding through ads. The hard drive capacity is sufficient for regular use, and features like series recording make it convenient to keep up with shows. Connectivity with my TV and network was straightforward. Overall, it’s a solid, dependable unit that does what it’s designed to do.

    Questions & answers

    Can you take recording off this PVR with Twin HD Tuner Tracey · 2025-06-23
    Hi Tracey, Thank you for your question. Yes, programs that you have recorded to the internal storage device of this PVR can be copied to an external hard drive. Full details on how to do this can be found on pages 40 and 41 of the user manual. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Appliances Online Adam Vaccaro, Appliances Online
    Hi, I know it can record 2 different channels but can it record 1 or 2 on each frequency? e.g. Nine & Gem, then Seven & 7Two. Or is it just Nine & Gem that you can record. My Topfield can record 4 but only 2 on each frequency like stated, need to replace. rose29 · 2022-03-29
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this product question, the unit has twin tuners so you can only record 2 channels. Ie Nine and Gem or Seven and Nine. BUT only 2 channels. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Hi - does it pick up the TV scheduled shows (and for how long if does so e.g. next 7 days) to select programs to record? Neil · 2021-04-16
