Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works well and keeps on going
It's been 6 months since I bought my Sony RDR-HXD870 and I'm still just as impressed with it as the day it came out of the box.

The build quality of the box is of the usual, high Sony standard, and the same goes for the remote. It looks good under the TV, doesn't draw attention to itself either in its looks or noise level.

Initial setup takes a while, especially if you're looking to coordinate the box with a third party tuner or satellite receiver, but its worth getting it right on day one because you'll never have to fiddle with it again.

That said I've never quite got it to fully cooperate with my Sky digital box. I consider myself quite competent when it comes to fiddling with machinery like this, ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent HDD/DVD Recorder - But the '890' looks like being a worthy successor
Just a quick review to say I have owned an 870 for nearly a year now and I think it is very good.

High points are:

1. When recording shows with adverts to HDD it usually places chapter marks reliably at the beginning and of advert breaks. This means that if you want to burn the recording to DVD it is very easy and quick to get rid of the adverts using the A-B editing function before you burn the DVD.
2. The tuners are good, particularly the digital one. Having recently acquired a Freeview aerial and a Samsung LCD TV to go with the Sony, I have to say the Sony tuner is superior to the Samsung, good though the latter is. The quality of picture when pumped through the Sony to the TV is excellent. Obviously the results ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Recording from SKY HD BOX planner to DVD harddrive
Has anyone out there managed to record from the Planner on SKYHD BOX with this player/recorder Sony RDR-HXD870.
As I've tried everything to record from there, I can only record directly from HDBOX.
I know it's probably the connections but can someone tell me which connection goes where, I have HDMI connections and scart but still unsure why it's not recording from the planner from SKYHD.

Otherwise get piece of kit well worth the money.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - instruction book
The m\c is very good however the instruction book may as well be written in arabic its that bad to follow


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very very good HDD/DVD Recorder.
Just had 2 weeks playing and learning about this Recorder. Some thoughts as follows:

1)Bought from Avides(Germany)through Amazon. The packaging was absolutely hopeless with a large hole in one corner of the box. Thankfully the item was perfect inside. Saving almost £50 of the typical price.

2)Yes the manual is quite complex but so is the machine. Who would know more then 60% of what a modern PC can do? It pays to read the manual quite carefully.

3) As a recording machine it is very very good. I have no problems with the EPG. It functions very well.

4) The remote is a little fiddly with small buttons. I also have the Sony Bravia 32". The picture upscales to 1080i which is the maximum the Bravia ... Read More:
