Review:


(there's more if you want)

Transferring recordings to DVD is also very straightforward, though if you want to do this at high speed (rather than in real time) you have to have made the original recording in high-speed-compatible mode, which requires a bit of forward planning. So far all my real-time transfers to DVD have been fine, and the picture quality as good as the original.

Finding your way around the menus takes a while, but once everything's sunk in it all seems pretty logical.

Finally, the DMREH60 is reasonably quiet in operation (as is the DMREH50). You're aware of a cooling fan starting up when you switch the machine on, but the noise is not intrusive, nor is it present (as seems to be the case with some Freeview hard-disc recorders) when the machine is in standby mode.

Review:


A machine that combines a hard disk (for time-shifting), DVD recorder (for storage) and Freeview has to be the way forward.

The picture is superb, both for watching and recording. Because the HDD is big (200GB) I've used only SP quality (one down from best), but with my previous -EH50 (80GB) I regularly used LP (two down) and it was perfectly watchable.

The guide is a bit cumbersome, a lot of scrolling necessary. You can reorder the channels to suit your viewing, but annoyingly it reverts to the default next time. Recording from the EPG is a doddle: click on the programme and it becomes an entry on your timer-recording list, complete with title. Then add a few minutes to the stop time if you're worried about an overrun. (Shame there’s no PDC with digital TV.)

The DMREH60 is not a PVR, in the sense that it does not allow you to "pause live TV". But you can watch the start of a programme that’s still being recorded. (continues)

I bought from www.multizoneav.com
