. I would just like to say that I have one of these DVD Recorders and it is rubbish. Not ony did I have to send one back because the Record Mode would not record what I had set it to, but also because it lacks so many features that the list of non features is far greater than its list of ones it does have.


A) As is already commented on, There is No Pause whilst recording.
(B) No Thumbnail replacement

(C) Poor picture quality

(D) No Delete of Part of recording for cutting out Adverts - only A - B delete - not the same, and this not work when played back on another brand of DVD Recorder.

(E) Buttons on the Remote too small.

(F) Title Thumbnails do not appear when played back on a Philips machine.

(G) Will not play back JPEGs

(G) This recorder is very poorly priced for what you get, a lot of much cheaper ones have more features

(H) Cannot use PAUSE whilst recording

(I) Makes noises as if loading up every so often whilst in Standby (Sony say this is Normal

(J) Does noy show Title lists of MP3 or other Audio Discs and there is no Screen Saver whilst playing

IT IS NOT LIKELY THIS REVIEW WILL GET PUBLISHED - AMAZON UK DO NOT SEEM LIKE NEGATIVE COMMENTS ON THEIR SITE


There are other issues. My advice do not buy a Sony, very overpriced, one of the worst buys I have ever made

Hi. Would I be right in thinking this was written with Amazon in mind? The line to that effect looks out of place here, whilst refering to something as "already commented on" doesn't help since no one reading your review will see the other comments. You can edit your review, if you wish, by clicking on the button underneath the title. Duncan

I understand you frustration, but you perhaps need tobe more objective rather than just listing the bad points.

I want a DVD recorder, maybe not this one. This is a helpful review but more info could really improve this review
