Advantages: hdmi upscale 1080p, usb port

Disadvantages: lack of multiregion

This LG dvd recorder has some very nice features including built in freeview, ilink for camcorder transfer, hdmi upscale and usb port. The ability to play divx is great although I think the usb port is limited to reading 1gb memory sticks which is a bit limiting.

The quality of the hdmi upscaling is great and nice and sharp with defined colours as it upscales a picture including the freeview to 1080p. The recording settings on the dvd side are nice at XP, SP, LP, EP, MLP which offers a lot of choice. I would stick to SP though as that gives the best recording quality/time.

The LG is a well designed dvd recorder and looks good, it also has a good range of inputs/outputs and can read/write a wide variety of disc types.

The remote is very useful and the freeview gives good reception. The only problem is I have been unable to get it multiregion unlocked which is a real shame.

Summary: good upscaling dvd recorder
