I have managed to get everything working with the recorders and I have a complex Ariel and BT system that goes to the rest of our house. I have managed to record from live TV onto disc and video tape. I have copied a programme from a video tape onto a dvd. I have even managed to record something from the BT box planner. I haven't tried to set it to record yet but I don't antisipate any problems with that. Would I buy it again. .... Yes

A combination of VHS and DVD in one machine. A good machine in it's day but a bit dated now. It probably wouldn't be used a lot for Freeview recording but good for transferring old VHS tapes to DVD. Also has Scart connections.

Yes it does what I bought it for - copying from my virgin tivo box to DVD. You play the recording through the scart connection to the TV, then at the same time record onto Dvd. The 88 page manual you can download still didn't help me get rid of adverts so I had to revert to manually pausing - hence nearly quite good! Connecting to smart Panasonic TV was a doddle - turn it on and TV switches straight there.

Ideal as allows me to play my video tapes,dvds and acts as freeview allowing me to keep my tv too. Easy set up and connection. It is quite big but fits on the small tv stand and means only one piece of equipment needed. It also lets me know when new channels available. Am using in bedroom thus I do not need pay rental on second cable box. Has recording options and to be honest have not used all its facilities yet so yes well worth the money especially at the price I paid. Ones owned earlier did not have same spec so cannot compare but certainly have no complaints.
Unobtainable new any more, these VHS recorders are essential for one who has many irreplaceable VHS tapes and wants to record them onto DVD. Does the job well.
