Re: decent budget HDD/DVD player/recorder recommendations

Posted by Barry Kelman on 01/12/06 10:26

I have just got the Ellion 950S from Play (or Amazon)
160gb HD/DVD recorder. Plays DIVX from DVD or HD. Might be pricy at $B!r(B250
but it one of the few that allows loading of DIVX to HD from DVD

Not tested all the functions out but I am impressed so far.
