Packed with features, the Liteon LVW-5045 is good value. AV performance might not be up with the big-brand-name competitors, but it's not as expensive either

Comments:
This DVD and hard-drive video recorder is reasonably priced, but it's a bit clunky to use and slow at transferring video.
Review Verdict: This is one of the least-expensive hard-drive-equipped DVD recorders we've seen, but its image quality isn't great and it transfers video from hard drive to DVD very slowly.

Review Verdict: A couple of minor issues hold the Lite-On LVW-5045 back from stardom, but for the techno-savvy it's still an appealing alternative to the bigger brands.

Review : LiteOn LVW5045
Comments:
This is a hard disc and DVD recorder/player but it also has the ability to do several other things. It should be an ideal piece of kit.
Review Verdict: I do hope the in the title sentence gave due warning. I have had this unit for some time and after trying everything I could think of - while waiting for the manual to arrive - I passed on to other things
