One feature that I was very pleased with was the ability to connect a VCR (if you still have one!) to record old family videos onto dvd. It was easy to do and means that I can preserve these memories and share them easily with other family memories.
The machine is also quite modern looking and reasonably small so it fits in well under the TV. The picture quality is great as is the sound quality. I have noticed a slight whirring nois...morePrice Comparison for Philips DVDR 3480

I purchased the Philips DVDR 3480 recorder as a replacement for my VHS recorder. I had a basic dvd player but wanted a machine that would also allow me to record dvds in addition to simply playing them. I will admit that there are features of this player which I tend not to use, as mentioned above I primarily wanted a dvd player/recorder.

This is one of the best DVD recorders you will find for the price. It has a few great features which make it worth the price alone. The DIVX playback will be a huge plus for many people for a start.

The main reason I got this DVD Recorder was for the DivX playback and to record footage from my Camcorder to disk so I could easily use it on my computer. And those two features are worth the £70 alone. Of course the DVD recorder does all the basics like play and record DVDs. The USB port allows me to play the DivX file via a normal USB stick which is very useful and saves a lot of hassle with disks. I like the design of the player, however when my family saw it for the first time they said it was ugly! I had one problem with it though, I set it to record a programme in advance however it told me that you have to switch it in to standby ... Read the complete review
