LGRHT498Black DVD Recorder HDD 250GB Freeview

The LG RHT498 mates a substantial 250GB hard drive with a quality DVD Recorder.

Featuring a flush front panel with centre circle-control, the RHT498h echoes the company's Blu-ray players and, at a stroke, gives this DVD recorder an upmarket look. In other respects, the RHT498 is still a highly featured and high quality DVD recorder.

If you've ever asked, what discs can I use in a DVD recorder? Then this LG DVD recorder has all the answers. Pretty much any! That's right, with its Super Multi DVD Recording, the LG RHT498 will happily record with DVD-RAM, DVD-R/RW or DVD+R/RW. Even DVD+R Double Layer discs are easily accommodated.

Yet, the LG RHT498H is much more than a simple DVD recorder. Thanks to the built-in 250GB hard drive, this LG HDD/DVD recorder doesn't even need to use blank discs at all! The 250GB hard drive is enough to record hundreds of hours of material. Another great feature with the LG RHT-498h is that if you want to record from the hard drive on to disc, then it takes just 27 seconds to record a typical disc using the high speed dubbing facility.

Coming equipped with a digital, Freeview + tuner built-in, the RHT498h makes an excellent replacement not just for your old DVD recorder, but also your existing digital set-top box, too. Yet this talented DVD hard disc recorder has still more to offer. A DV input makes short work of copying from digital camcorders, while the USB interface proves extremely useful for recording or watching music or photos via a USB storage device. It's not just the recording flexibility that drives this DVD recorder/HDD to the top of its class, it's also the performance. DVFX technology combines with upscaling to 1080p via HDMI 1.3, to create a picture that's both rich in detail and colour realism.

For a fully equipped recorder that has the potential to replace up to 3 of your existing units, the LG RHT498h offers a super-stylish and practical solution.
