Hi,
For your information I bought this DVD Recorder last week and when I tried to copy from a USB external device (LG USB 2.0 1Gb stick) to the internal HD it tooks aprox. 3 hours for a 700MBytes recorded DIVX film.

THOMSON says that it is a USB 1.1 / 2.0 incompatibility issue, (DVD recorder USB front Input is USB 1.1) but I am not sure of this because USB 1.1 standar minimun transfer rate is 1.5Mbit per second so at this rate the time to copy should not be up to 1 hour aprox.

Can anyone help me?.

P.D:Thank You in advance and sorry for my very bad English.
