Head is spinning, which DVD recorder.??

[sonic99]

I'm going round circles trying to decide which DVD recorder to get.!!

For me the most important thing is the play back quaility of the films, the recorder side I really want just to replace the video recorder and so doesn't have to be fantastic quality.

My current DVD player is a pioneer 340, it's getting a bit worn now and is having trouble playing copied films, jerks and hops alot and then locks up.

Have a Panasonic plasma TH42PA30 so I want component out put to that.
Have a digital recieve and a sky + box (no sky subscription so can't record to box's own disc) and would like to record from both if possible.

Budget around £300 to £350.

Have been looking at the Panasonic DMR EH50 or the Sony GXD500.

Would have to be DVD -R compatible aswell.

Thanks for any advice.
My head hurts.!!

Have a look at the 'Which DVD Recorder?' link in my signature. In particular you should decide if you want a model with a HDD or not!
