[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 738739, member: 310216"] Thanks for such a comprehensive reply Huevos. I can record via a usb key on the Vantage, but I find that there's little that I would like to record and if I did it's a problem finding the time to watch what I've recorded. I can see the advantage of the Duo, however for me it isn't worth the extra £100 or so. What image would you suggest changing to from the one that comes with the VU+?
