Upconverting Recording Center [Update 5/08/08]

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: All in one for up conversion DVDs and general use Recording with flexible output options. Extended recording times on DVDs have degraded image.
Review: The Samsung DVD-VR357 DVD Recorder/ VCR Combo is, simply put, a general purpose recording center for use with a cable converter box. No more, and no less. In support of this role, Samsung has done a good job of making a complex machine relatively...

Appeared to have recorded but did not

Date of Review:  May 29, 2007
Review: It plays dvd movies. However, I am having a hard time getting it to record anything. Perhaps I need additional gadgets to get it to record HD "over the air" programs since I do not have cable at home. It would be nice for the manufacturer or the...

Not my first choice in DVD/VCR recording devices

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2007
Review: I was able to get it to record, but it took a few hours to understand the setup. Once I did however, it recorded from VCR to DVD just fine. (Word of the wise, if you intend to copy protected VCR tapes to DVD (such as Disney), forget it). This WILL...

Date of Review:  Aug 2, 2008
Review: Good idea but has major issues, simply put I bought this for my wife's birthday and it has been a disaster. It will play recorded DVD's when it wants to. It is been sent back to Samsung 2 times and is there now. The same problem 2 times with the DVD...

Poor picture Quality, but easy to use

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2007
Review: We bought this for about $199.00 at Best Buy, it was only one of two choices for a DVD Recorder with VCR included. The other option was a Sony for $50 more - but with the same features, so we opted for the Samsung.

We were able to set it...

Date of Review:  Oct 5, 2009

Review: I bought this Samsung DVD-VR357 DVD Recorder / VCR Combo specifically to dub my camcorder (Sony) home videos to DVD. It was easy to set up and record, however after viewing the DVD, it looked like a bad Godzilla movie (all the voices were off by...
