So, by this time next year pretty much the whole country will have switched over to digital TV, a small town in N.Ireland to see the end of analogue on October 24th, 2012. Whether everyone will... more

    Advantages Advantages DVD recorder and freeview box in one. Improved compatibility. Able to record to RAM/-R/+r/-RW

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Limited EPG. Large footprint.

    I've recently had to leave the domain of Sky television, and was getting extremely bored with the terrestrial offerings. I therefore decided to get a freeview box, but then decided I rather missed my old DVD recorder. I therefore decided to purchase a DVD recorder that incorporated freeview, not having a great deal of money to spend ( ... more

    So, by this time next year pretty much the whole country will have switched over to digital TV, a small town in N.Ireland to see the end of analogue on October 24th, 2012. Whether everyone will have a digital signal by that day is another story. We know from the amount of older people who haven’t yet switched their gas and electricity bills to get cheaper deals it’s unlikely. New technology and modern ways to pay bills are intimidating and worrisome for some. But if they don’t have the digital box or dish by then there will be no Strictly Come Dancing next year. As we all know we constantly ... more

    Advantages Advantages Records FreeView Channels and still watch Freeview on your set top box or Cable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Its not one of the smallest DVD recorder or Player ever made

    The Panasonic DVD recorder is easy to set up. It took about 5 minutes to get it up and running which is great for those people who have problems setting up electronic equipment. I brought this model of DVD recorder was because it allowed you to record from freeview, and watch another freeview channel, as I always had to watch the same channel that I was recording but now this is a thing of a past. I find basic operation is simple to use. But I would say that the menus could do with being more simplified. So if you are scared of computers this may not be the one for you. I brought this DVD ... more

    Advantages Advantages easy-to-use, feature-packed and inexpensive

    Disadvantages Disadvantages no major ones

    The Panasonic DMRES20D is a simple and well-constructed DVD recorder. It has the added bonus of a built in Freeview tuner that allows the user to record in digital quality, thereby justifying the need to record to DVD. Compared to the pile of DVD-player and VCR, together with cables and so on that lived beneath our TV, this unit, with its modern black and silver design, is simple and attractive to look at. There are no unsightly connectors stuck out at the front, as all are discretely hidden beneath a flap, and the display is clear and crisp. The unit records DVD-RAM and DVD-R / RW, as well as ... more
