    Hi, just thinking about my technically clueless parents after switching to Saorview, are there any easy options for recording tv?

    I know there are probably boxes out there with built-in recording capabilities but I want to get rid of their old CRTs and replace them with 32" tvs.

    Are there any tvs out there that can record straight to USB or will I have to buy a seperate box for doing that?

    Thanks.

    EDIT: Mods I know I asked in HE General but I wanted to ask the Richersounds guys aswell so please don't delete, thanks.

    the samsung smart tvs records the saorview, you will need to plug a harddrive into the side, quality is excellent, they also have freesat and can record from that too.

    Hi Thargor,

    Thanks for getting in touch. :)

    Beaver got it spot on. The new Samsung and Panasonic range allow you to record on to an external hard drive.

    Check the links below for more info:

    Samsung - http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/samsung/ue40es7000/sams-ue40es7000

    Panasonic - http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/panasonic/viera-txl42et5b/pana-txl42et5b

    Great to see most of the new Panasonic range are now Saorview approved. :D

    Let me know whar you think.

    Chris

    Just having a look at this new Sammy 32" LED - it's not Saorview approved yet but I'm pretty sure that it will do what you want and it's £479.95... and I can do that price including delivery..

    Sorry for coming late to the party...and as ever keep us posted if we can assist,
