Got one a few months ago, cheap and compatible with several different formats including DivX.
At first I was very happy with it but recently it has developed a fault where the machine will not power up and "HELLO" scrolls across the display until the thing is switched off or unplugged. I recently spotted one for sale on eBay as faulty with exactly the same problem, so this may be a common fault with this particular model, so bear this in mind if you're thinking of getting one.
(Edit) Strangely enough the problem seemed to go away after a while and for the last few months it's been fine, until now... it's new trick it to record for a few minutes and then either just randomly eject the disc or for gibberish to appear on the display - either way the end result is no recording. I've tried different discs but i'm just about to give up on it now.
To be honest I would say avoid this model as it's given nothing but trouble.
Another thing I forgot to mention is that only 1 of the 2 Scart sockets is RGB enabled, so I can't 'pass through' the picture from my SKY box to the TV in RGB quality... mildly irritating
