DVD Player w/ internal HD? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Can this be done? I would love to have something like this ala Xbox. Where I could download say music videos and trailers to the HD and watch them whenever?

Is this possible?

Well it seems what you would like to do would require an HTPC, although not a very complicated one. I belive the dvd player with the HD is a DVD burner, that is sort of a hybred with a TIVO, there is an entire thread devoted to DVD-R check it out, see if thats what you heard about.

You may want to check out this player. Tomdkat pointed out this earlier, in another thread. It connects to an ethernet connection, allowing you to stream files from your computer's harddrive. Not exactly what you're looking for, but it's a start
