 Good picture quality , 2008-07-03
The unit looks so slim and compact. All DVDs and Divx CDs played so well without any freezing and skips. It has read all my Divx Cds that did not work with my Philips DVD recorder so this little one has kicked out the Philips and has taken a main position next to my 37" LCD TV in the living room. I am quite satisfied with picture qulality when upscaled to 720P or 1080i. Highly Recommended for such value !

Excellent Value for Money, 2008-10-22
I have found this DVD / HDD Recorder very easy to set up and use. Picture quality is good and speed of operation is as fast as can be expected. I have my Sky+ box AV2 connected to the DVD AV2 so I can record Sky without any problems. The initial unit I had was faulty, it wouldn't format / record DVDs and thought non RAM type had the protection tab selected. The Panasonic customer help line were very helpful and the Amazon returns procedure is hassle free. I use Maxwell DVD+RW and Panasonic RAM disc (Panasonic recommend Maxwell, JVC and their own discs). Many people prefer RAM discs, I would agree but the format is different so no good for playing in most DVD Players, However the files can be copied to your PC and if the file extension is changed to .mpg they will play on your PC and DVD software can turn them into standard DVD. The unit doesn't have an analogue reciever but this isn't a problem for me as I only use Sky and have bought the unit because my Sky+ disk is always full and I also want to back old VHS to DVD, which I can do through the AV inputs.

RHT397H review, 2008-07-03
Already tried a Philips 5500 which went back for crashing twice in the first day!
This LG unit is in a different league, it does everything well and looks the part, everything is very logical and intuitive, you don't need the manual too much.
You can play DivX/XviD from DVD or copy to the HDD and play from there. Similarly USB directly or to local HDD but shame is the port doesn't provide enough power for my 2.5" SATA but it works fine with an external PSU. It supports FAT/FAT32 and does the long filename thing so you don't get stuck with 8.3 filenames. The DivX/XviD playback and your own recorded programmes seem separate such that you can be recording freeview and watch normal TV from the HDD but not something DivX/XviD.
Freeview tuner and 8 day EPG is brilliant, you can record a freeview programme to HDD and clip ads then dub faster than realtime to DVD. You can also copy home-made DVD's to the HDD, edit and dub back. It writes to -R, -RW, +R, +RW, -RAM, +R(DL) which seems to be the lot and can playback all these plus VCD and audio CDs as well as WMA files.
Nice touch when you go into menus the picture fades to black and menus fade in from black, the fonts used are also easy on the eye with no square edges and look great on screen. I haven't got an HD set so can't confirm how well the HDMI does. It can even provide 5V out on the aerial socket to power aerial amps.
Everything else functions as expected and the response is quick. Remote seems a little cheap but is compact and can operate the volume/channel, power and AV selector on a few TV manufacturers (fine with my Sony).
Can't find anything to criticise really, a great unit indeeed, very pleased with it.

Great but be mindfull of size, 2008-11-16
Had this for about a week, picture quality is excellent upscales dvd's very well and plays divx movies. Sound quality is also excellent as is cd playback. For the money it is an absolute bargain.
Just one word of caution, the unit itself stands quite tall at 200mm so you must allow space on your stand to accomodate, a lot of stands won't fit this so you'll need to shop around.
If stand space not an issue then get it, if you have a sony 40w4000/4500 is will look even better but also looks fab with my samsung 40a656.
