l have had this DVD recorder for about a week now, and love it. The unit can record a DVD from the hard drive in less then 5 mins but the selected file has to fit the blank media without any more compression (about 2 hours for a standard 4.7gb DVD R). The manual is easy to understand for the basics but could do with a little more detail for the advanced functions. The remote is very cheap but can control you TV, even if its not listed in the 5 brands in the manual, you have to try them all to see if they work. The picture is excellent in the standard play mode, and good in long play, l haven't tried any of the others. Before this unit l had a Wolfendale DVD recorder that was very noisy and unreliable. l would recommend this to anyone who asked my opinion.

I've had this machine 24hrs, so probably haven't spotted all the problems... But - already I am thinking of saying it has a fault and changing it for another brand... My initial impression is if you are thinking about buying one of these is to think again - I had a Wolfendale DVD hard disc recorder with a purchase price of £100 less and it had more functionality... The remote comes with one of those hateful control-your-TV buttons, which is great, if you have one of the five brands listed, but if not, is a total waste of space... Recording from HDD to DVD is in unbelivable 'real-time' (3hr hours takes a staggering 3hrs) unless the machine lets you select the "Fast" option... Yep - it works for one file at a time, but not for multiple files... No facility to set a title picture... DOES NOT RECORD RADIO!!!! Editing files is OKish but will take some getting use to... a Mickey Mouse manual lacking on detail... On the positve side, does have the facilty to do an emergency power-down if the machine hangs... Disappointing is too mild a word for this machine...
