Such a PVR?

Hi Guys, just want to rattle your brains to see if such a thing exists.
Is there a PVR player that allows me to transfer files to the box. But also be able to play like Divx or Xvid?
If there is a PVR that can play either Xvid or Divx then that would be very very usefull.
Many Thanks

Paul

A Media Center PC would be your best bet by the sounds of it.

I would say any that has a analog tuner.

This is what my mum has and you can record to HDD from any RF, S-VIDEO and Scart (As well as them multicoloured cables Composite?) equiptment (My Telewest TVDrive being one of them)

I have a LG7500 HD DVD recorder, that records from my Samsung STB, and plays back DivX and Xvid.
