The Labgear LCOM1 is a versatile Combo HD Satellite & Terrestrial Receiver designed for indoor use, offering reception of both High-Definition satellite and terrestrial TV signals. It supports a wide range of video and audio formats, making it a comprehensive solution for home entertainment.
Function Description:
The LCOM1 functions as a digital TV receiver, capable of tuning into DVB-S/S2/S2X satellite and DVB-T/T2 terrestrial digital TV broadcasts. It upscales PAL content to 720p or 1080p resolution, ensuring a high-quality viewing experience. A key feature is its twin tuner capability, allowing users to simultaneously watch a terrestrial channel while recording a satellite channel, or vice versa. The device also supports PVR (Personal Video Recorder) and Timeshift functionalities when an external USB hard disk drive or flash memory is connected. Beyond TV reception and recording, the LCOM1 acts as a multimedia player, capable of playing back video, audio, and image files stored on USB media. It also offers network connectivity via an RJ45 Ethernet port or a USB Wi-Fi dongle, enabling access to online services like YouTube.
