Hi,

Just got my new V20 set up and noticed that when you choose a programe in the TV guide you get the option for "Ext Rec".

Can Anyone with a V20 offer any advice on whether or not I can use my Panasonic DMR EX77 via this option? I know the DVD has a built in guide but it would just be handy to set my programes to record via the TV.

    On the V20 the Ext Recording function allows you to attach a usb hard drive to the tv to use the tv's onboard tuner to record programmes. Pretty certain it wont set recordings for an external DVD/HDD recorder.

    Thing is there's a seperate option on the TV for that "USB HDD Rec" as far as I can tell the dvd has an option for external link but can't seem to make it work.
