What is a good DVD recorder?

What is a good DVD recorder (hopefully with a tuner)?

• I'm looking into getting another DVD recorder. I currently have a Sony that's tunerless. I used to have a samsung that I liked, the AR-650. Has anyone heard anything good about the Samsung HR 773? It looks promising, but it has a hard drive [another part to break down]. If not that one, can anyone recommend a good DVD recorder with an ATSC and/or NTSC tuner? It seems like it's very hard to find one these days.

• Answer:

  From the two listed the Samsung HR773 is a good unit I like Samsung and some of their products and this one I would consider at a later date. The specs are good as well as what it has to offer over the AR-650 or even the units I have nothing comes close. Time Shift recording function, USB Connection which means it supports man other platforms as well, and multi progressive Scan Output which is why I like Samsung for many of their products. http://www.samsung.com/sg/consumer/tv-audio-video/dvd-recorder-player/dvd-recorder/DVD-HR773/XSS/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&returnurl= There are other units yet they cost less and offer less your getting an internal HD and a good Tuner as well and it works well with the unit. There is the Panasonic and Toshiba units which are far less yet the Sony is the only other one that I could compare to Samsung. http://www.google.com/search?q=sony+dvd+recorder+with+tuner&hl=en&prmd=ivns&source=univ&tbs=shop:1&tbo=u&ei=R1sYTebYM4us8Abm_JnsBw&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&sqi=2&ved=0CDIQrQQwAA&biw=1249&bih=704
