Customer Review: overpriced
The only difference between the RDR-HXD1070 and the 970 and 870 is, by Sony’s
own admission, the internal disk size. Which is an industry-standard
SATA disk anyway. The models even run the same firmware!
I therefore don’t see how Sony can justify a price markup of between 60%
and 100% (depending on where you buy) between the 1070 and the 970.
Additionally, the devices, although DivX certified, will only play DivX
files from optical media. They are incapable of copying them to the
internal hard disk (like you can for jpg files). This is on purpose.
If Sony give us a single new product, with a huge disk, and which is capable of
copying and playing DivX files from the internal hard disk, I will
buy it the next day! Until then, I’m not parting with my money!

Thanks to the DVDR3510V player from Philips, you can not only record films to DVD and play DivXs on your television; you can also give your VHS cassettes a second lease of life. This combined DVD/VHS player/recorder is perfect if you want to save on space. A genuine 2-in-1 appliance, the DVDR3510V will meet all your video needs. Able to record to a large number of supports, such as dual-layer DVDs, this player equally lets you save films from your camcorder. This device also comes with a DV input so you can hook your camcorder up directly. What’s more, you can even connect an external hard drive via the USB port. Extremely practical and not at all cumbersome, this combi from Philips will guarantee you many relaxing moments!

Customer Review: Can’t record chapters on DVD-R discs…
I bought this machine to transfer my VHS tape collection onto DVD discs, via the HDD. I have tried everything, but I’ve been unable to make DVDs with chapter markings - they are easy to place on the HDD, but when the DVD is recorded, there is only one title & no chapters. I called the help line & was told I’d have to record onto the HDD at the same settings as the recording to DVD. I tried, but it still didn’t work. The help line then said I would have to do high speed dubbing to keep the chapter markers (which makes no sense); however High Speed dubbing is not an option unless you’re using DVD-RW discs & recording as DVD-VR, not DVD-Video. I think the machine is faulty, but the help line claim you can’t make DVD’s with chapters (so why have the option on the HDD?). Not recommended for VHS to DVD use!
Customer Review: Fantastic Product!!
I bought this item on ebay for a fraction of the price and after a 15minutes installation everything came into place. It does exactly what it says on the tin so to speak. It has the best picture quality I’ve ever seen and the hard drive is so handy and simple to record and use. Loads of people who have seen it in action over the weekend have fallen in love with it and now want to buy one. Toshiba is a reputated make and I’ve always trusted it. I’ve already got a Toshiba television and a Toshiba hi-fi and have never had any problems with either of them. I recommend this product over Sony or Panasonic for that matter however I did have a look at the Toshiba DVR16 but was reluctant to buy it as reviews were not good so beware!! 5 star product extremely recommended.
