I just recently buyed an standalone DVD Recorder with DivX/XviD support

it's the LG DR7500 recorder (without the HDD)

it supports most codecs, but the option of Aspect Ratio resizing is not supported

other than that, recording, scheduling, quality, ... is ok

anyone else owns a similar hardware? (possibly with a.r. support)

Well, I do not own a recorder, but for all my 'play' needs a Philips DVP642 is there for me. I record DVD's on my computer (as it allows further editing and configuration/flexibility). Some of the features of this player are:

- Media: DVD ( + and - R and RW), VCD, SVCD
- Formats/Codecs: MPEG-4, DivX, XviD, CD, MP3-CD, CD-R and CD-RW, JPEG

I remember playing a lot of my old .avi 's codec'd with DivX and XviD and being able to opt in the subtitles (same Disc, different file [.srt]) which is a neat feature.

That is if you were asking for Players/Recorders being the / interpreted as 'or' , just in case.
