As it turns out I was very pleasantly surprised. Easy to use with clear instructions, I was dubbing home videos to dvd 15-20 minutes out of the box. Easy hook up with digital/HD cable involved. High quality DVD picture, both playing and recording (dubbing from VCR or recording from TV). VCR portion does a nice job too. The copies and recordings I have made using DVD-R media work perfectly on 3 different DVD players in my house (each a different brand at a different price point bought at different times), so compatability doesn't seem to be an issue. I would have to say that the quality I got was much more than I expected for the money. 166 of 169 people found the following review helpful: Best Value for the money, By Roger (San Francisco) - See all my reviews This review is from: Sylvania DVR90VE DVD Player/Recorder and Hi-Fi VCR Combo (Electronics) Copies tapes with the touch of one button to Disc. I can put up to (5) 2 hour vhs tapes on to one disc and save money and my valuable home movie collection of my children. The menu is easy to use, as I only have to press one of 4 arrow buttons and then hit enter to record and set up timer record programming. The picture on screen display is simple to understand and the record and sound quality are excellent. I was told by a salesperson at a giant electronics retailer this unit is made by the same company making Hitachi , Phillips and Sharp units , selling for much more. Lowest price Ive found. Thanks for the great buy Amazon. 65 of 65 people found the following review helpful:  Firmware upgrade URL for media compatibility problems, This review is from: Sylvania DVR90VE DVD Player/Recorder and Hi-Fi VCR Combo (Electronics) I purchased the DVR90VE from Amazon about a year ago (12/2004). It is a very good unit for the money and relatively easy to use, but it has a severe media compatibility problem -- difficult to find out which DVD-R & -RW media will work with it, and since media production has moved to higher speeds, it is increasingly hard to find the slower media that works (1-4x -R, 1-2x -RW). I recently ran into these same media compatibility problems that many others have encountered and reported here when I ran out of my original DVD-R spindle that was purchased a while back. Were it not for media incompatibility and the lame customer support for this issue, I would give the unit 5 stars. These problems appear to be the fault of the original firmware in the machine, which only allows DVD-R 1-4x and DVD-RW 1-2x media to be used for recording. I do not yet understand why they did not then make provisions for using faster and faster media that...Read more |
