  Because i was having so many problems with thr PHILIPS i bought a second 
 dvd recorder,a DIGITREX which was 1/4 the price.It doesn't have as many 
 features but gets a better picture i think. 
 The PHILIPS cost me nearly $2000 aussie dollars(about 800 pounds) and the 
 DIGITREX cost me just over $500 (about 200 pounds). 
  I have been recording every episode on ABC tv over here.Still pissed off we 
 didn't get THE WAR GAMES.
