Works well as a monitor via HDMI. I can turn off the other inputs so the AV button now just switches between aerial and HDMI-1, making it easy to flip between the two while I'm waiting to re-spawn in a game.
Once I get my PC built I'll have that connected via HDMI-2 so must make a mental note to re-activate it!

Will have to see what mode the telly comes on in once I've got DTV working.
Unlike the other TV's in the house, the power button on the remote does actually turn the telly on, so it could be that it remembers what it was last on.
Neat set-up. Unfortunately, no HDMI on my TV but it can cope with 1080i
and even "ordinary" TV looks really good. Freeview picture quality is excellent.

As for the power button,it's quite possible that your TV remembers what was last on because if I activate Freeview and then put the TV on standby it's still on Freeview when I start up ( so long as I don't turn the power off as this wipes the memory).

Might be worth checking your favourites list in both analogue mode and in Freeview mode just to see what is being listed.
