at last my long suffering video has popped his clogs
i need something to record the occasional prog...like the race morra
anyone recommend a brand?,also some of my fave films are on video,can they be transfered to dvd/hd (numpty question) etc or anywhere i can download them from or do i wait till they come round on telly again
unless someone has a video recorder gathering dust somewhere?

My local pound store has got a combined PVR, video and DVD recorder for 150 notes

That's what I'd get!!! Then burn the videos onto DVD....

#Something like this

I was in tescos yesterday and saw a VHS/DVD writer combo with freeview built in £199 , the only downside was no twin tuner so you would be watching waht your recording unless out ofcourse

John i will have a look in the loft to see what electrical goods i might have in the car boot pile.

I've got an old VHS you can have conrodski. Ask me next time you're over.

My sisters got one of them funai ones in bens link. Good bit of kit. But if your gonna spend the money get a twin tuner so you can watch and record different channels.

I bought a freeview dtr from maplin for 40 quid a couple of weeks ago. Nice thing. Runs a pc ide hard drive so you can change the size. iv got an 80gig in mine and it will record about 50 hours on it.

that funai looks like the deal,ive bought some time by washing the dust out of the recorder with a hose pipe and cleaning the recording head with some wet n dry,seems to be working ok now
ill give you a shout next week Chris,Jo wants would like to see you again for some strange reason
