Magnavox ZV450MW8 DVD Recorder / VCR Combo

I accidentally bought this thinking it was the lower priced model without a digital tuner. I decided to go ahead & keep it. Although it picked up more digital channels than my TV, the picture quality is not as good as the television. I am using S-video and might try component and HDMI to see if it gets better, but I doubt it. DVD player doesn't look razor sharp either. When I tried the VCR, I almost took the unit back to the store. Picture & sound were terrible, but luckily it has manual tracking as well as automatic. After manually adjusting the tracking, it was much better. I got used to the fast rewind of the older VCR's. This one takes quite a bit longer. If you're nuts about an outstanding HD picture, you're not going to be happy with this product.
