As Archos launches its fifth generation of portable players, it’s also making a bid for the lounge with this, the TV+. In fact, according to Archos, the TV+ ‘is set to become a must for every living room in 2008’. Well, it’s not bad, but let’s not get...

Having used this good-looking box, youre left wondering why the normally sure-footed Archos has made the design and marketing errors it has with the TV+. The plug-ins should have been plugged in, the infra-red emitter on the front is daft and for £25...

Archoss TV+ is among the most expensive multimedia receivers here, but it does have an 80GB hard disk for TV recordings and storing video, audio and image files. Setting it up is tricky. Instead of SCART outputs, it has component video and stereo p...

The reality, however, is somewhat different. The first and perhaps biggest problem with the TV+ is that it doesnt support HD. Thats right, a product thats supposedly the cutting edge of TV technology and the best it can do is plain old standard def...
Bottom line Archos TV+ probably would have been something to shout about a couple of years ago, but its lack of HD support, absent digital TV tuner and poor video format support mean its outclassed by the competition. Add on the fact that the plug-ins will cost...

Is the Archos TV+ device from Archos the media-streaming and television recording solution were all waiting for? As well as acting as a bridge between your computer and television, the Archos TV+ has input connections. There have been several devic...
Bottom line We really cant recommend the Archos TV+, which is a shame because we really wanted it to live up to our expectations. Sadly the difficulty we had setting it up, plus the lack of high definition playback, are major issues that the Archos TV+ failed to...
