First off is the improvement that all PVR users will appreciate: extra space. The Explora has a 2TB hard drive which DStv says is capable of recording 220 hours of high-definition television, or roughly 150 series episodes or 100 movies. The extra space also means DStv is able to offer more within its on-demand service.
A cool spin-off of the increased capacity is a "series-stacking" option within Catch Up, (a facility that allows users to literally catch-up with episodes that may have been missed) which makes two episodes of a series available within the same time frame. A selection of up to 30 movies will also be available via this on-demand service. The Box Office selection is also getting a boost, with up to 20 new release titles available.
And though they are not currently available, MultiChoice says the Explora will allow subscribers to access certain additional features in future, including online content. The user interface has also changed.
The Explora is currently available in stores and it has a recommended retail price of R2,499, which excludes installation.
