Or indeed '...combo' as John D has suggested below.
Do note, however, that it is important to make the technical distinction that this is only a Blu-ray player, and the recording section is not 'Blu-ray' (presumably just a hard drive). This accounts for the sightly odd wording of the original, and it would be dangerous to simplify that if it led to ambiguity.
