Dvd-R Hard Drive Recorder Media center
I have been putting up with prerecorded television on its customary formats for years now.
I guess that it would have been nearby 3 or 4 years ago when I decided that I could do without the Vhs, it was a sad day saying goodbye to some of the movies I owned on Video Cassette but it was a relief to not only lose the necessity to store these bible sized monsters in the house, but also to remove the triple wired dinosaur form the living room. Well this old relic of my youth had been replaced with a general Dvd player and soon my Dvd range started in earnest.
The issue is that I don't easily want to store large items of digital media anymore. My music has all been compressed down into 320kbps mp3, my photos are all now burned onto Dvd's and stored in triplicate.
So I start converting my Dvd's and ripping them onto my hard drive. issue is that before long I have approximately 60 Gig of movies and easily I prefer to watch them on my Tv than on the Pc screen.Then a explication occurs to me, a perfect home entertainment solution.
I needed mass storehouse and it was only going to be a matter of time before I found a solution.
There it was, a Dvd hard disc recorder which could like do all I wanted and here it is a:Philips Hard Disc Dvd Recorder with 250gig hard drive.
First I networked it into my Pc and dragged across 80 Gig of movies in DivX format ( that is about 100 films ). Next my photos for the past few years ( some 30 Gig ) were imported followed by 30 Gig of music in mp3 format to join the party.
Next I hooked up the Dvdr recorder to my Tv ( sadly I am not yet an owner of a flatscreen Tv but that is easily only a matter of time ) and piped the excellent audio association to my home hifi.
The results are superb, even though I have not even explored this unit's impressive recording capacity - and it is capable of that lovely Video Plus thing - I have now a perfect home media centre at a very captivating price.
Hard drive Dvdr machines are available at Telephones Online [http://www.telephonesonline.co.uk/_dvdr_recorders.asp] whilst the model I purchased was the Dvdr3460H Philips Hard Disc Dvd Recorder [http://www.telephonesonline.co.uk/details.asp?prodId=1659&title=Philips+Hard+Disc+Dvd+Recorder]
Previously I had tried various abortive options. This now has restored my household to a perfect full on media experience.
