Default Hard Disk Recording

Hi

Anyone got any suggestions?

I'm looking for a cheap Hard disk recorder. It doesnt need freeview or a
DVD. Must be able to record from scart somewhere in the region of 170 hrs,
and have either scart or RF out for viewing on a TV

thanks in advance

Rick

a pc, a dvd recorder with hard drive or a tivo with a big HD in it - that
about sums it up.

most hard disk recorders are freeview only.

Thanks for the info - thought it might be something like that. I did find
a hard disk caddy type thing on ebay that you put your own drive in that
just had 2 scart sockets and professed to record TV etc, but it was from
hong kong, and I'm a little wary about ordering from there, anyone heard of
these?

Big snag is most are designed only to record digital signals. So something
that can record analogue is likely to be more expensive.

How cheap is cheap?
Have a look at one of the many Liteon devices currently available. OK
so they've got DVD recorders too but 160Gb for about £160 aint bad
IMO.
LiteOn HD-A740GX DVD Recorder 160GB HDD - have a froogle on it.
