160GB hard disc recorder + DVD recorder

Just got one of these - ordered yesterday, arrived after lunch today. I spent a happy (?!) hour setting it up and it seems to work fine - input from aerial and Sky box. I'll have a play over the weekend.

Good value for the spec... though no Videoplus

...and it is multiregion for playback

I bought the Tevion 160gig one from Aldi but it was iffy till I did firmware update from their website. It has video+ and plays divx files (mpeg4) cd's and mp3's. You can save stuff from disk to the hard drive or vice versa. I found a hack for it to region free it but I don't have any DVD's to try it with, I've ordered a region 1, Neverwhere, from Amazon so I'll be able to try it soon.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
