::::INTRODUCTION:::: I was origionally looking for a Philips DVD Player but decided "why not get a recorder instead to replace the old VCR?", so i set off to the shops, went in ASDA and seen this stylish little machine on the shelf, picked it up and went to the till to purchase it! It only cost £98 ;-)
::::SETTING IT UP:::: The Words "Easy Peasy" comes to mind when setting up this Recorder/Player. The manual isn't at all confusing (although it doesn't state how long warranty is, but ASDA do a year warranty anyway and you can ring Philips if you really want to find out!). Switch off all your equitment, choose a connection mehthod (i went for Scart from Sky Box into The Recorder and then from Recorder to TV), then set it up using the on screen instructions and wooolah! Your Done! Ready to watch DVD's and Record.
::::CONNECTIONS:::: It has 2 Scart Sockets (For connecting to the device you'll be recording from and into the TV), component and other connections which doesn't really interest me as i only use them (don't bother leaving comments saying "you should go into more detail" because that's all i use!).
::::RECORDING:::: Make sure theres a DVD+/-R/W disc in (its dual media) and hit the red circle record button and your off recording your choosen device! You can also set up timers to start it recording (Again, remember to leave a blank disc in!) and your choosen device to record on (unless its built in freeview or analogue or cable).
::::PLAYBACK:::: Play back quality is one word. Stunning.
::::CONCLUSION:::: If your looking for a sleek, super-sexy DVD Recorder and Player that will meet everybodies needs then this Philips is for you!
Cheers. Andy.
