[QUOTE="BorisJ, post: 507829, member: 32482"] It certainly won't work with Freeview. Freeview uses DVB-T, the US uses ATSC. I note the spec says refresh rate 60Hz. Refresh rates in Europe are 50Hz. But many TVs will actually do both so you maybe in luck. Basically you won't be able to receive broadcasts without a Freeview or satellite box. HDMI, component, or composite in should work if it accepts 50Hz refresh rate. [/QUOTE]
