Average DVD/VCR combo
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This player/recorder is easy to set up. I dubbed some VHS content to DVD. I hate the fact that it dubs in "real time",i.e.,a 2hr VHS movie will take 2hrs to dub. Wish there was some method for high-speed dubbing without loss of picture quality. Picture quality is very good on DVD at SLP speed. (8 hrs of disk space.) Unfortunately,I couldn't get my satellite tv remote (Dish Network) to work this DVD player/recorder. Tried ALL codes listed in satellite manual;no go. Toshiba needs to issue new codes for this player. Wonder if subscribers with other satellite services have the same problem. Playback is noisy! Machine has quite an undertone;maybe it's the fan. I find that annoying, myself being hard-of-hearing. Another disadvantage is that the time doesn't change automatically for EST/DST like some other recorders/players. Like the "resume on" feature which lets me go back to the last watched portion of a DVD,unless I eject said disc or set up a timer recording. Overall,it's an adequate DVD/VCR combo that does its job.

GREAT HD COMBO UNIT
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AN EXCELLENT QUALITY PRODUCT,WITH HD UPCONVERTION. MY ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT IS THAT THERE STILL ARE REORDING RESTRICTIONS ON DUBBING CERTAIN VHS MOVIES TO DVD.VHS MOVIES HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED FOR MANY YEARS NOW,I HAD HOPED IT HAD A BUILT IN MECHANISM TO OVER-RIDE THIS.

Surprised I Could still buy a machine with VHS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just got Directv so I needed a way to record programs to watch since directv usually carries only the East Coast feeds (so prime time shows are on 5 to 8 pm). This machine allows me to tape programs on VHS to watch or if I want to keep to burn them onto a DVD. I just wish it came with a built-in tuner. I'm using the directv box as the tuner, but it would be nice if it had a tuner so I could hook it up to my outside antenna to watch over-the-air programs too.

Very Disappointed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not told I would need an external tuner when I purchased this item. Didn't discover it until it was too late to return it to Best Buy (15 day return policy). I've owned three other DVD/VCR recorders and they all had internal tuners, so it never crossed my mind that there would be one that did not. I know there is a lot of newer technology today, but I wanted something simple and affordable to record TV shows over the air since I don't have cable. I called every retailer I could think of and I was told external tuners are no longer being manufactured for TV's.
