The two media centres that join our review today both have HD digital tuners. What's available? A budget model simply for watching TV or a more costly but scalable centre.

Toshiba is positioning the Places STB1F as an Internet, TV and Multimedia adaptor. We therefore tested it opposite other digital media centres. The TV interface impressed us but we wonder if enough attention has been given to the various multimedia decoding features. Answers below!

Azbox stands out in the world of media centres for its scalable products. The Premium HD+ can thus link up with up to two HD digital tuners or satellite. This is an interesting idea, especially as Azbox has announced wide multimedia compatibility for this model, which is also equipped with a screen and a built-in wi-fi module.
