DVD/HDD Recorder recommendations?

Paulando · 03-10-2005, 10:06 AM

I'm not sure which folder to put this request in, to be honest, as I'm not entirely sure what I'm after. Generally, I want something to record with that isn't a VCR

Here are my requirements:

1. Record from external sources (NTL STB, in this case).
2. Preferebly a HDD recorder, or a combined HDD and DVD recorder.
3. Has a single freeview tuner.

That's all I would need, really. They go down in order of importance, so I'd be willing to look at something else even if it doesn't fulfil a couple of them. I was under the impression that the Humax HDD PVRs could also record from an external source, but I was sad to find out it can't

I can't see why to be honest, and it was a perfect pricepoint for me. I'm looking at £150/200ish, but the cheaper the better really.

Many thanks!
