For some time I have been pondering on how best to transfer my precious family videos onto DVD and finally came across this device, which is fairly easy to use and does exactly what I wanted it to do, recording my videos as they play on my old VCR; no need to connect to the computer. The first video I have done has transferred perfectly onto a DVD-R disc and will play back on my laptop. Picture quality is of course only as good as the original rather shaky video but the sound is good and I am so glad to be able to save these old films in a more modern format. I now have many hours of videos of my children to transfer. Managed to get a refurbished recorder from an Amazon seller for less than half the price of new, but it looks like brand new and came in the proper box with all the instructions and bits and bobs. The seller also was great at communication, warning me of some limitations of the device (ie not all camcorders will work with it if you want to record from the camcorder) and it came within 2 days of being ordered, safely packaged. It will also take memory sticks and record digital photos onto DVD if you want. I think it is great and it's just what I needed!

I too purchased this unit to create HD discs from my HD JVC camcorder and was delighted when I took it out of the box. Looked good but .... what a disappointment. Works with virtually all camcorders it states the box - yes that would be true if you just want to create Standard discs but if you want HD discs then only Sony camcorders can be used. Sadly this piece of useful information is buried in the manual. Typical of Sony and very misleading statements. Should state clearly on the box HD discs from Sony camcorders but none other.
I'm sure it works fine with Sony equipment, but I'll never know.

I have just purchased a Sony VRD-MC6 Multi Function Recorder which, according to their advertising "Works with any Camcorder"
It does NOT. I checked with Sony HQ before buying, that it would convert High Definition Video from a new Sanyo VPC-HD 2000 Camcorder,into a High Def on DVD with no loss of quality.
They confirmed that it would, no question!!!
Today,after I failed to get it to work, they have confirmed that it cannot handle JPEG4 formats which are used by many HD camcorders and it will only be able to downgrade the video content to Standard Definition.This defeats the whole object of course
I wasted time and money on a product that does NOT DO WHAT IT CLAIMS.
This is very unlike Sony.
Beware of this if you own a modern Digital Camcorder

Great stuff
I bought a reconditioned example for £120. At that price, it's absolutely brilliant and has been an excellent and economic way of preserving my old VHS and DV home recordings. Read more
