    Are there any DVD recorders (or DVD/VHS/HDD combos) on the market yet with MPEG4 capable tuners (for the Republics Digital TV service and Not to be confused with DVD recoderrs with the capability of playing back MPEG4 files on DVD/USB) ?

    Im in the market for a new machine but dont want to spend money on something which is likely to become obsolete within 18 months

    Hi Mike1972.

    Thanks for getting on touch with us.

    I will need to look into this for you as I am unsure which would work and which would not.

    There are very few DVD Recorders on the market at the moment as many are starting to sway towards Blu Ray recorders.

    LG seem to be one of the only DVD recorders we can get out hands on at the moment
    LG RHT497 priced at £179.95

    While is says MPEG4 - Yes. I'm not sure if this is for the on boards tuner or not.

    I will try my best to get a confirmed answer over the next few days and get back to you.

    Saorview really does confuse me :confused:
