Channel Master TV CM-7400 Over-The-Air HD DVR
By Rob Sabin | June 6, 2012
I was impressed with how well Channel Master thought through the basic DVR interface, feature set, and aesthetics for the CM-7400 DVR. As a standalone DVR designed specifically for off-air broadcast, it fills a unique niche in today's market, and I can’t deny it filled one quite nicely in my home. I'll be sorry to see it go back.

Channel Master TV Review
By Rachel Cericola | February 15, 2012
If it's free, it's for me!
One of the things that may keep people hanging on is the inclusion of a digital video recorder. Being able to watch what you want, when you want and fast forward through the commercials has changed the way that we watch TV -- for the better, of course. It's also a tough thing to let go. Luckily, you don't have to be DVR-less anymore while still severing ties with your TV provider, thanks to the Channel Master TV. Click here to read more. |

For those readers who are either (a) tired of ever-increasing bills for cable TV, or (b) looking for a different TV experience, I've got a product for you: Channel Master TV. This new product from the folks who were formerly best-known for TV antennas, amplifiers, and related products, is an ATSC receiver with dual DVRs (320 GB total capacity) and tuners, plus built-in WiFi connectivity for Vudu's streaming HD movie service and Vudu apps. If you live in an area with plots of digital TV stations and are content to give up premium news, sports, and lifestyle channels (replacing some of them with Internet-delivered content), then you should check out this product.

Cutting the Cord on Cable
By Kevin Sintumuang | January 7, 2012
Televisions made in the past few years have TV tuners–just plug in the antenna–but if you want a more cable-like user interface as well as a DVR, get the Channel Master CM-7400 ($400, channelmaster.com). You can browse channel lineups on a grid just as you did with your old set-top box–it gets all of the information from the Internet–and schedule recordings of your favorite shows. The box also includes access to Vudu, an on-demand movie- and TV-show streaming service. Click here to read more. |

Channel Master Launches New DVR For Cord Cutters
By Dave Zatz | December 15, 2011
Channel Master previously championed the now defunct EchoStar DTVPal DVR under their banner... and obviously found some success bringing digital VCR capabilities to the over-the-air crowd as they're launching another fee-free DVR. The new Channel Master TV, aka CM-7400, primarily targets high def antenna broadcasts (although it'll also tune clear QAM) with the added benefit of over-the-top Vudu content.

Channel Master TV review
By Ben Drawbaugh | December 14, 2011 4:00 PM
If you prefer your DVR with no strings attached, your choices are pretty limited these days. You can of course roll your own, but admittedly, that isn't for everyone. Channel Master does plan to change that, though, as it's currently accepting pre-orders for its over-the-air DVR with over-the-top features that doesn't require a subscription.

New Channel Master DVR records OTA, streams Vudu
but not Netflix
by Matthew Moskovciak | September 13, 2011 8:18 AM
The Channel Master TV is designed to be a one-stop box for cord-cutters. Cutting the cable can be done, but one of the toughest challenges is replacing live TV programs, like sports and local news. We've long been advocates of over-the-air (OTA) HDTV to fill the gap, but there aren't many OTA DVRs and the existing models have significant drawbacks, including the Channel Master CM-7000PAL we reviewed earlier this year.

By MegaZone | September 14, 2011
Channel Master is launching a new box, the Channel Master TV, aka CM-7400. This new model moves Channel Master a bit further up market.
