Question:
By decent I mean:
Under £100
Good software
Audio phono connectors
Twin RGB scart
The twin scart is assuming I can pass my DVD player through the STB. Will the quality be effected much? If this is going to effect the quality then I guess I can get a scart box (my tv only has one scart socket).
Top of the list is the Panasonic TUCT20 expect for the single scart or the Samsung SIRU200I except for the lack of audio phono. I've discounted the Grundig/Thompson due to poor software.
Any ideas?
The Philips DTR 1500 is 100 quid, has 8 event VCR timer, 2 scarts and audio phono connectors. The unit can also be stood vertically like the forthcoming Sony Freeview box.

Thanks vertigo!! I picked up the Philips DTR 1500 tonight - it's really good. Does everything I want, the quality's good, the remote’s good. I'm happy.
I had an original nokia onDigital box years ago (at uni) when they launched - how things have changed.
