Super DVD Recorder

bygamow1234 Sep 15, 2004
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros It works as it is supposed to which is an amazement to me!
Cons Only slightly tricky manual. But that is only slight.
Recommended it? Yes

My Phillips is a super recorder for the humble class of which I am one. There was a bit of clumsy setting up the wiring, but that is not their fault. I find it easy to use with a well written manual. There are some hiders in there, but have learned how to ferret them out. I am a happy camper now... Read full review »

Cons Durability, Durability, Durability
Recommended it? No

As an early adopter I purchased Philips DVDR-985 only to suffer the repeated failures that product was so noted for. It is now a $900 door stop. Believing that Philips had the time and skills to overcome this edsel of the DVDR industry, and following some early reports, I bought the DVDR75. This... Read full review »

Pros Great Price and Easy To Use.
Cons Cheap DVD's did not work in 1 of my 4 DVD Players
Recommended it? Yes

Easy to use. I do not understand why people say the manual
is difficult. It was very simple. Quality pretty good.
Easy to edit by hitting the pause button. Do not forget to finalize the disk when using DVD+R. Read full review »

Pros An abundance of inputs to satisfy most applications.
Cons Useless manual. Navigating functions confusing. REMOTE WORTHLESS
Recommended it? Yes

I've had this recorder over a month and cannot agree more with most of the reviews as to how good it works.
If your source of video is good and you keep the the speeds at 2.5 or less you get a great picture.
One of the reviewers made a comment that the picture quality seems to improve... Read full review »

3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros The idea is great to have everything in one unit.
Cons From other reviews, the unit is not built to last very long.
Recommended it? No

Buy beware!!!!!! Bought the unit at the end of November 2003 and by the end of February when trying to load a movie the DVD would show "Disc Error -Please eject disc- Playback feature may not be available on disc". T Called Philips and they said that the warranty is only good for 90 days for free... Read full review »

In to the 21st Century

Pros Super performance all round
Cons The manual is abysmal
Recommended it? Yes

The manual is awful. It took a whole weekend to get in to its workings. Even then a neighbour had to help with the freeview.(a UK TV system)
Eventually it was all working and it is a dream. Still to get to grips with editing but that will come I am sure.
If only that manual was useable... Read full review »

Excellent DVD/VCR Combo

byonyourhead Mar 15, 2004
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Size, supported formats, hookups, price, availability
Cons Buttons on the front of the unit
Recommended it? Yes

This combo was an excellent addition to my home entertainment center. The installation was just as easy as any other DVD/VCR player I have dealt with and it provided me with many options including the abilty to upgrade. The size of this unit is much smaller than many of the other combos I looked... Read full review »

Combo unit- both failed

byaswiston Mar 6, 2004
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Nice looking face plate, RF in/out for my old TV
Cons Neither half of the combo works let's call that a "reliability" con
Recommended it? No

Yep, not only did half of the combo let me down, but so did the other half. Bought it because it would be only one price of equipment on my entertainment center, it had an antenna out for my old TV, and it looked nice.

Shortly after the warranty period, the DVD portion started having... Read full review »

Great Recorder, great price

Pros Price. Discs compatible with other players. 2-1/2 hr. record mode. DVD+R/RW format...
Cons No fast forward on remote. Customer service may be required to learn some functions.
Recommended it? Yes

I returned two cyberhome 1500's due to faulty editing experiences. While the cyberhome was cheaper and had easier menu navigation, the Philips has performed 110% better and was worth figuring out the directions. It helped that I'd been broken in with the easier Cyberhome, but ease doesn't count if... Read full review »

Pros Plays all 4 commercial DVD formats, inexpensive, simple
Cons Silver color, Non-ergonomic remote, (BREAKS)
Recommended it? No

UPDATE - MARCH 30, 2004
Ok, what I thought was a great thing, turns out to be J-U-N-K. I guess I should have known when purchasing something from Wal-Mart like that.

I had the unit for like 32 days and it broke. From the noise it was making, it sounds like the drive the spins the... Read full review »
