LG has new HDD recorders coming in 2012 for the European market. The flagship model is called HR925D and offers a 500 GB HDD and support for almost every video format available.
LG HR925D & HR825T HDD recorders
LG HR925D has a built-in 500 GB hard drive for recording, and built-in dual tuners. It obviously handles 3D+2D Blu-ray, DVD and CD discs but also plays a myriad of video formats from USB devices. HR925D incorporates LG’s full Smart TV 2.0 platform with TV apps, including SmartShare and DLNA.

The slightly cheaper HR825T offers most of the functions found in the HR925T, including the 500 GB hard drive, but excluding all of the Smart TV features.
