Not many DVD Recorder deals around but this one seems pretty good.

Note the reviews on the link provided below are for the 5005 not the 5005b. I have no idea if there is a lot of difference but I would guess that the 'B' model is probably just the EU model.

    no scart or HDMI?

    2 SCARTS if you look at the misco link. I don't know why you expect HDMI, there's no mention that it can cope with HD.

    no HDMI?


    You want a lot for £45.. ;)

    This is quite an old model, it is also quite large, however it is still good value for money.:cool:
  • Thank you very much for this post, I was waiting for one to come along at a good price for ages, this is perfect, hopefully the brand is decent.

    They E-mailed me saying they have received my "order reqest", hopefully they dont say it was a misprice or something.

  • Sorry i thought i saw a picture of the item without the scarts so wondered if it had a well hidden HDMI (very cheap!!)

    My eyes playing tricks again!

    Who said i expect HDMI? it was a question asking what it has.
  • See if you want to record stuff onto disc.. but you want to b able to use the disc more than once.. what type of discs do I need?
