Panasonic DMR-E500H

Panasonic's high-end DVD recorder includes an enormous 400GB hard disk drive, which the company claims can store over 700 hours of video.

Panasonic DMR-E500H

it does not say that it can stream media from a pc to the device, that would be the main reason for having a LAN port, to gain extra storage and play video that is already in our libraries.

panasonic dmr-e500h review: Panasonic's high-end DVD recorder includes an enormous 400GB hard disk drive, which the company claims can store over 700 hours of video.

Good picture, good sound apart from the synch and not expensive

The lip synch - sound and vision synchronisation - s out on my model. I have tried contacting the seller whose English was not too good but I got he impression that it was a known fault and I was refered to Shinco who have not replied. I was hoping for...

While its cheap offering price is enticing, issues with the physical design and build quality make the Shinco SDP-1720A a less than appealing portable DVD option.
