I think the technology level of various brands and models of HD recorder is quite the same; what makes the difference is just the SW.
So, what do you think is the best software in the DVRs around?
For example, to insert a title for my recordings, in my LG recorders (i had 2 different models) I have to press dozens of times the cursor keys to select the letters: does it exist a DVR which uses remote control keys as done on mobile phones (i.e. multiple letters on same key)?
About playing: does it exist a DVR which allows selecting the amount of time to skip anytime you press the "skip" button, rather than just the preprogrammed 30 secs or 3 minutes? Boroadcasters here in Italy use 7 (seven!) minutes long ads!!
About editing: my LG recorders have a terrific interface to cut&edit: if you want to cut just last 1 minute from a movie, you must play the WHOLE movie till you reach the minute, then cut it! Extremely boring, even with super-fast-forward! 5 minutes to play 2 hours!
About remote control: it would be very cool to know in advance if remote control has specific codes for keys used to select sources, rather than one single key to browse all available sources. Also discrete codes for turning on and off would be useful. This is required to allow controlling the DVR by iPod/iPhone.
About remote control: does it exist a DVR capable of being turned on or programmed through GSM phone or network?
