Hi.. I am currently setting up my AV room in which I plan on getting a Pana Pro plasma screen. Since I am not too attracted to cable I am planning on connecting the screen on a DVD player and OTA. I saw a Panasonic dvd player that had some of the functions I am looking for but not all.. Here is the shopping list

. Dual OTA ATSC and NTSC tuner (required)
. PVR functions (required)
. DVD and BR (nice to have)

What are my options, any recs..

Thks

For HD, the Echostar TR-50, which is supposed to be out in a couple of months, has everything but the DVD player/recorder. But you could always add one to it.

For SD, the Philips DVDR3576H is about the only thing out there like that. Has everything but the Blu-Ray.

No fees involved with either, but the Philips doesn't have a guide, so all timers will have to be set manually. With the TR-50, you will be able to watch one thing and record another (has multiple tuners).

There is a thread here for the TR-50, and a sticky thread over in the "DVD Recorders" sub-forum for the Philips.

Thks Rammitinski, the TH-50 seems pretty much what I am looking for. I"ll browse the thread.
