I have recently purchased a DVDR3570H, it works fantastically well, it uses videoplus+ for planned recordings rather than an EPG which was a bit irritating at first but I've got used to it now. The most annoying thing is the lack of a freeview tuner. I ahve a Samsung HDTV with freeview built in. Does anyone know of anyway that I can record off that?

Unless it has an output then no

Some TVs also allow the main "in" scart to act as an "out" scart. This may need to be switched "on" in one of the TVs menus. An other small TV as a monitor via a separate output may be usefull if this works!
