right i have had it from two engineers we had here goodmans dvd recorders and prob units manufactured at the same factory with other stickers on...are likely not to work with either the samsung or the pace units. also some \LCD tv s wont work either. both seem to suffer from a blurred vision or mono colour. and not because they are crap and cheap. because i got a LG recorder costing £80 and that works fine. otherwise the samsung unit is fine. perhaps could have done with another input ?cable connector and a third scart connection.. i have been informed that the pace units are not as good as far as picture quality is concerned. i know that a few years ago when the mark ones came out that we had 3 units in as many months due to them breaking down. the whole production was faulty at the time. anyway i kept my freeview (which still has sky news ports news) until things are sorted out with sky (bunch of tight so and so and money grabbing )
