Hi all,

I'm after something/s to do the following:

Watch freeview
Record freeview
Play DVDs
Set series record
Catch up on old programs

What is the best combination of gadgets to do this? I already have a TV but if it's worth upgrading to a smart TV to check some of the list off, then I will

Thanks
 
Might it include recording and watching HD? ... and playing Bluray's?
 
Consider the Panasonic DMR-PWT530 (Details here)
This has a twin HD tuner and would play DVD's and Blurays. It has series recording.

Maybe not so good for On-demand catch up. It probably only has BBC iplayer - but you would need to check on that if it is vital.

Alternatively look at the DMR-PWT635 (Details here) Much the same but with additional features.

You have not mentioned it as a requirement, but if you wanted to archive to Bluray / DVD disk then the DMR-BWT740 has a recording Bluray/ DVD deck included. It is also Twin tuner HD.
 
For the best catch up TV experience you also might want to consider a Samsung Smart TV or a Panasonic TV Smart TV with Freetime. Either of these options will give you catch up on all the main channels.
