Hi everyone
I currently have a Panny DMR E85H which has been used for many years but lately is becoming unreliable (switching itself off,struggling to start up etc) so I'm looking to replace it.
I have skyHD so am looking for a machine that I can use to backup programmes onto dvd. Blu Ray would be nice but as I have a Blu Ray player that ain't too important.
I was hoping to spend under £300 (obviously cheaper the better originally wanted to spend around £150 until I started looking!!!). And have been looking at Panny and Sony but am open to ideas. I was all up for getting Sony SVR- HDT500 as I liked ALL the features but reviews don't seem to be that good.
AND I notice there is no scart which would be an issue as I need to back up VCR tapes too. So that seems to be ruled out.
Any ideas/recommendations appreciated.
