dvd recorders with hard drive
3 Answers
i am thinking of buying a dvd/rw/hd but cannot find a decent review of what is good or not.
have just purchased a new hd ready tele in the sales, does the dvd have to hd ready as well ?
some say they are hard to set up... ?
so fed up of vhs cassettes clogging up space
does �150 - �200 get a good un ?

You are dealing with separate issues here.
You will not receive hd television unless you subscribe to it, either through Sky or Telewest.
Any recorder will have to be hd ready to record hd quality.
The best reviews are in the monthly magazines such as home cinema.
You need to decide if you want a pvr hd recorder - which records only to an internal hard drive.
Or a dvd recorder with hard drive that archives recordings to dvd r or dvd rw.
Do you want built in freeview?
I would wait, and pay about �300 for one with a twin tuner - then you can record two different channels at the same time.
Read the magazines, and spend time in the shops getting information, a feel for the jargon and an idea of specs and prices.
They are no harder to set up than a vcr, by the way.

The humax is good, but it is not a dvd recorder - you can't archive to dvd r or dvd rw disk. So when your hard drive is full, you have to delete recordings or faff about connecting it to a pc with a dvd writer and the right software.
As Technika wants to convert the video tapes to dvd this is not the ideal solution.
