DVD recorder/HDMI 1080p upscaler

grimm2005 · 2008-03-10 20:40:04

Hey, Not sure if this is the correct forum for this but seemed like the most applicable to me. Does anyone know of any dvd recorders with a HDMI interface that will upscale dvd's to 1080p around the €200 area? It doesnt need to have a built in HDD as i have sky+ for that. I could prolly also do without 1080p support if…

It doesnt need to have a built in HDD as i have sky+ for that. I could prolly also do without 1080p support if needs be and settle with 720p/1080i.

Also would it be feasible to get an amp w/ 5.1 speakers in the future and be able to hook it up?

Thanks

Lot of hype about it - a lot cheaper than similar types of hardware - has HDMI output - 220 dollars including shipping

There is a lot of hype about, but a queue system to even order it!
