5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value DVD Recorder, 4 Sep 2006
By Mr. L. C. Button "ashend10" - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I have a large collection of recordings on video cassette and thought it was time to transfer them to DVD but a same brand DVD/VCR Recorder combi is about a hundred pounds more. All you need is a scart cable connected from the VCR to the Line-3 scart input and the same job can be done. Gamers can connect a games console in the same way and record.

This Recorder has excellent editing facilities on DVD-RW including A-B erase. On DVD-R and DVD-RW users can input titles for their recordings and a simple menu can be created for use on other machines. HQ is one hours recording SLP is 8 hours recording on one 4.7gb disc which does increase the pixelation of the recording.

Setting up was easy - using the smartlink connection the Recorder automatically finds the channels and sets the time although the manual does not go into great detail it is relatively easy to read and understand.

At this price it is difficult to fault such a useful piece of equipment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Value for Money, 30 Oct 2006
By A. Daw (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is my first DVD recorder and I am not disappointed. I bought it for backing up my SKY+ recordings so I only use the scart connection and didn't need to do any tuning. So setup was a breeze.

For £125 this recorder is perfect. Quality is excellent, it can be region hacked, it's easy to use and it looks good. I especially like the synch-record function which works well with my PACE SKY+ decoder and it records to Dual Layer DVDs. I couldn't ask for more.

This recorder represents excellent value for money and I can't recommend it highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amaxing Machine., 16 Jun 2006
I have just received this machine for my Birthday and am absoutley amazed with its capabilities. It was very simple to install and tuning and sorting channels was very easy. However it really comes into its own when you start the recording process. The different functions i.e labelling sorting and playback are excellent. If you are still reliant on video tapes put them in the bin and go and treat yourself to one of these recorders, you will not be dissapointed.
