28 January 2008 Hi ScottAs I said to Wendy, there are four 'flavours' of the Portset Digital Media Centre.
The Sound Quality from the two (smallish) built in Speakers is 'passible but better on Headphones or via your HiFi.
There is no Memory Slot on my DMC. The Slot on the Front is for CDs (Audio, MP3, and Daisy) and DVDs if you have paid for that Option.
I don't know the Capacity of the Hard Drive but at times I have had up to 60/70 Recordings (several in excess of two hours in length) and there have been no problems. Recordings from TV and Radio can be made by 'Instant Record', setting Date and Time (like old VCRs), or by selecting from EPG which is available on Radio as well as TV.
The Audio Description on TV can be switched off if you want to do that. Hope that helps Best Wishes KEITH -- KEITH ROTHWELL Bury, Lancashire, United Kingdom E-Mail: keith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx BLIND PERSON - NO GRAPHICS PLEASE - PLAIN TEXT ONLY PLEASEPlease note that, as I am totally blind, I cannot handle Written or Printed Material of any kind.
