I have a projector that will play from USB/HDMI/AV inputs and I mostly use it to play films or Episodes that I have loaded onto USB memory sticks. Being a bit lazy though, sometimes all that copying can be a pain and it would be nice to connect up a little DVD player or Freeview box. It's only VERY occasionally though so don't want to burn over £100. I also want to avoid anything that needs wifi or 3/4G as I can do that on my phone/laptop already.
So ... any recommendations? Something cheap and small that plays multi-region DVD's and picks up Freeview would be good - even better if it had a hard disk that I could record stuff at home and watch away.
I already have limited Sky and Virgin at home and I am presuming that recordings on those will refuse to play if I took them in the Van - although it would be a very pleasant surprise to hear otherwise!
PS I've thought of using my Laptop for DVD's but it's not multi-region. I don't currently have any aerial/dish and would prefer to use a portable thing if possible (edited after @NickNic comments)
Thanks!
