db73 Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Hello all. I would like to buy a DVD recorder with hard drive that has Divx/Xvid compatibility but have a few questions. 1. Can Divx video be stored on the hard drive? 2. If so do the Divx files have to be on a CDR disk or can the files be transfered from a DVDR disk? 3. Any recommendations of a particular brand or model? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Dave
skitzzza Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 I know that the LG DBRH197 (The one with the digital tuner built in) allows you to copy Divx files to the HDD, because I was just reading the manual on the web. And it reads Divx files from any disk (DVD-R,-+RW, CD). I don't know if the copying of the divx files to the HDD is a common feature with all LG DVD/HDD recorders. I would assume so, but go to the website and check out the manuals. As for other brands that do this, I know Panasonic don't allow this. Don't know about Pioneer.
