Hi Steve -
I understand that the EPG on-screen make recording non-accessible, but if you
know when a programme is scheduled, can't you learn the steps using the remote,
that will select the day, channel, and start and end times? I could do that
with the Toshiba I briefly looked at.
Does the machine you bought record the AD track then with tV programmes? I
think most AD tracks are added to TV programmes, not part of the original sound
mix? -

Hi Andy
I know that the latest panasonic dvd/hd recorders have AD as I bought one
before Christmas.
However, they are not accessible.
I would check with panasonic themselves as to which models will record AD. I
would guess that the AD would be mixed with the normal soundtrack, not on a
seperate track like commercial DVD's. You may be able to get a demo at your
local department store or similar, which would give you information as to the
accessibility, but since recordings are programmed via a electronic program
guide, I'm pretty sure that it will be inaccessible.
Also the facilities on the panasonic recorders is not good - for example, it
can only record one program at a time unlike most freeview + machines.

Hi all -
Is it common these days for DVD recorders to have Freeview builtin? If so,
is it likely that if I go for a Sony or Panasonic model, to have AD too.
Thanks for any help -
Andy
