Hi
I'm adjacent to buying the panny DMRE500 - Richer Sounds are selling it for under £500. I have a Sky stb and wondered how the recorder would control the stb. The US manual says it comes with a G-Link device (which is an IR emitter to zap the Sky box . . turning it on and onto the right channel) - does anyone own the DMRE500 - UK version and know how they've arranged this? I understand the other way round is to programme the Sky box via its EPG and setup the recorder to "auto-on" when the SCART output becomes active . . does the 500 do this?
I'd also be interested to know a brief account of any user's stories of owning this beastie . . should I wait for a more HD ready box to come out? For example.
Cheers
