The DVD Recorder I have (its a philips, but the model escapes me) has component in, but it is limited to 480p for recording.
 
Not implying HD Just want to record 480i with better resolution than s-video

I have the philips model ( think DVDR3400) also, probably same as Rocky, if you are interested in it, PM me as I no longer use it and only used it for about 12 total recordings.

It also sports and HDMI output among the possible options.
 
I also have a Phillips. Got it about 4 years ago. It has had some issues on and off (lots of reboots -- have to unplug it and go through setup again), but it works for what we do with it. I have recorded some movies off the air successfully, but mostly used it copy my videos.

I specifically got one with component inputs, but in the end, that was kind of a waste. The inputs only give me 480i, but the component output from my sat receivers has always been minimum 480p. I finally have a receiver that outputs 480i over component, so future recordings can be over component. I can say that I see a definite difference between the component input and S-Video.

In theory you can use this in place of a VCR for day-to-day recordings (time shifting), but I never used it for that. Once I got a DVR, I cannot imagine using a DVD player for that purpose.

Good luck. Let me know if you have other questions.

What model is that philips you have martincva? the DVDR3400 works pretty well, never saw those issues.
