DVD/VCR RECORDER WITH USB PORT seeking |
| neorican posted 2009 Oct 11 19:06 |
| I am looking for a DVD/VCR RECORDER WITH A USB PORT that will play my videos via Flash Drive through my HD TV -- I am interested in Recommendations -- It is hard to tell if this feature is available by info on the net or even by asking a sales rep-
I did manage to find out that the following DVD VCR RECORDER combo units have this feature: SONY rdrvx560 ($170) and the LG rc 897t ( $220 ) Are there any other concerns about the above units that I should consider? Any Net reviews ? Does anyone know of any others or what is your opinion of the above-- Thanks,,,,Ralph |

| Dont buy combo units like that,best to have a separate dvdrecorder and vcr in case you have to use a tbc between the vcr and dvdrecorder for copy guarded tapes you own,cant copy those types of tapes with a combo unit plus they are built cheap. |

| Hi Johns0,
Thanks you for your quick reply-- My purpose for this type of unit is mainly to copy DVR ( NON-COPYRIGHT) TV programs that I wish to save and to make singing or speaking recordings-- The VCR part for converting ( non- copyright ) tapes to DVD is essentially just an extra since the price differential is not much -- I am interested in your comment that combo units are made CHEAP-- Is it the VCR part that is made cheap or the whole thing ? Are you saying that DVD RECORDERS are made better ? If so , why and do you know of any that you can recommend? Still looking for the combo unit info as as above. I sincerely appreciate your info-- Thanks,,,,,Ralph From johns0 Dont buy combo units like that,best to have a separate dvdrecorder and vcr in case you have to use a tbc between the vcr and dvdrecorder for copy guarded tapes you own,cant copy those types of tapes with a combo unit plus they are built cheap. _________________ |

| Have you researched the Western Digital media player (Model: WDAVN00BN) for your flash drive files?
Prices should be no more than $100.00. |

| Hello LJB,
Thanks for your help, but I would still need the DVD VCR RECORDER COMBO , for everything else so it would not be worth it-- regular 4gb or 8gb flash drives to plug into a USB port are basically all I need -- Thanks,,,,Ralph FROM LJB Have you researched the Western Digital media player (Model: WDAVN00BN) for your flash drive files?
