  1. Yet another lousy Samsung DVD recorder

    I have nothing good to say about this DVD/VCR recorder combo except that the black color matches my other electronic equipment. I have repeatedly tried various Samsung DVD recorders, including the VR120, VR357, and the AR650. All of them have died within 18 months, and the cost of repair is close to the cost of a new one. Save yourself some grief and buy a different brand. Read more

    bought as a replacement of a previous fail Phillips and Wal Mart brand units.  Now this 3rd unit from Samsung failed with less than 1 yr under its belt.  I used it to copy my NFL team each week. ONLY that. So, including playoffs/SB win, what, 20 discs?   All units protected electrically via UPS power supply.  All else on ups is fine, so it isn't electrical problem.  I'm not sure what the problem is other than my tv screen is scrambled when running through this...

    Owners need to read the manual which address proper settings, able to record pay TV broadcasts and protocol for copyright recording allowances by provider. This Unit also has flex media recording for the various blanks + plus R/RW and -Minus discs. Keep in mind the lower the speed (rate) 8X 4 X and 2 X discs are going to perform far better than 16 X discs. Not that it can't handle these. The Manual also addresses the input signals to your TV and the the Unit, if you are... Read more

    Our Family has a lot of VHS tapes with children's movies on. Having just purchased an HDTV Television, I wanted something that would play DVD's and VHS tapes. This is the one I chose that had the best options: dubbing, upconverting, HDMI connection direct to the HDTV, etc.etc.ect., I am very pleased with the operation and simple functioning. I am buying another one to replace our existing DVD and VCR in our basement. Read more

    I had trouble each time hooking this up but the cable guy and my computer guy had NO trouble when I needed to it moved to another location so that may be a girl thing. I have converted a lot of my old VHS tapes to DVD and it is great to be able to find exactly what I am looking for. It is a little complicated for a girl/older lady like me to figure out how to use and play and edit but when I took the time to learn how to do it, it was well worth the time spent. The fact...
