Our PVR is beginning to die, the hard disk has been hammered so much that it's beginning to suffer from corrupted segments and we find that during playback, programmes occasionally (often) skip and start jumping around

I started looking around last might but it occurred to me that all these lovely HD boxes will have HD output, and our aging CRT telly only has SCART input, not HDMI.

Can anyone recommend a PVR that has a scart output? if it's a nice one that also has a HDMI output for the point when our telly gives up the ghost, that'd be nice too

cheers

I know some he Humax at Richer sounds do. Looking for a PVR before we upgrade the TV.

You could try just replacing the hard drive, it shouldn't be too hard to do. Just make sure you get the correct type of drive!

Otherwise we just got a Humax box, which I'm rather liking, no SCART though, but it does have component video outputs, which can be connected to a SCART socket with the right adaptor.

I've literally just bought a Humax HDR-2000T 1TB from Humax Direct.

It has HDMI and Scart output.
