Re: In need of advice
Your best bet would be the Philips DVDR3575H/37....It has pretty much everything you want and a 160GB HDD....plays both recordable DVD disc formats,CD and Divx,MP3,WMA and JPEG files.Has NTSC,ATSC and QAM tuners(although not widely known..).Upscales to 1080p with HDMI...Now the bad news...I was really interested in getting one of these until I started reading reviews about losing digital channels out of it's memory and it's lack of support for 16 X 9 encoded TV shows and only recording in SD.And the fact that a lot of them go back for repair/replacement.It's not bad priced at around $300 but you can buy a new HD Tivo for that price or less,although you have the monthly fee to deal with.I think the Philips machine has the right idea but it's not quite ready.I currently have one of the coveted Pioneer DVR-640's...It's a great machine but it's days are numbered because of a lack of a digital tuner.
