Bad Points

Instruction booklet could be just that little bit clearer in some parts. For the non-technophobe, these systems can be a little daunting, and very clear simple instructions are required.


General Comments

I searched for a DVD HDD recorder for a while, but expecting to purchase a Sony in the end, just for their usual quality. I have not been disappointed with the Sony RDR-HX910. The reviewer ads1 has a problem and it's not with the machine. I can easily record one programme (via the recorders in-built digital tuner) whilst watching a different programme (via the TV in-built digital tuner). Is it the Sky set up that prevents viewing one program and recording another? My son has Sky and has this problem, and I wonder if it is the setup that causes it; I am not a technophobe so will not get into details. With my set up, I can watch one programme on TV (digital or analogue), record a different one on the DVD recorder, and record a different one again on my VCR (analogue only). It all depends on the number of TV tuners you have in the system. One tuner can only do one thing at a time!

Anyway, the Sony RDR-HXD910 does exactly what I want and more, and the 250Gb hard disk saves more than enough for my use, and any excess can always be recorded to DVD, which is almost effortless.

A great machine!
