Toshiba RD-XS52 DVD Player/Recorder with HDMI
Lots of features but BIG learning curve
I like the super large hard drive of the Toshiba RD-XS52 as compared to my Panasonic DVD recorder with a 40 Gig hard drive.  BUT!!  The Toshiba Software is not easy to follow and I have had to keep the manual at hand for every function and start over each time I want to repeat session.  Too many different menus.  I have almost had to learn a new language to understand this particular recorder.  I find for quick records, I still must rely on my Panasonic... Hopefully I'll learn the Toshiba way..  but the learning curve is HUGE!!!
