CyberHome CH-DVR 1500 Progressive-Scan DVD+R/+RW Recorder and Player , Silver
It has good points and bad points
I will admit that I am pleased with the quality and ease with which the recorder allows me to store to disc my collection of home videos, and its other conveniences making editing tv programs a breeze. However I am not satisfied with the lack of ability to edit the titles on an DVD+R as opposed to being able to do so on an DVD+RW. On a DVD+RW I can literally edit the title in the title window to denote the name of the recording stored on the disc, however no such editing seems to be possible on an DVD+R disc, as a result I can only denote what the recording is about by changing the picture in the thumbnail to depict a scene from the recording just to allow me some idea as to the contents of the disc recorded to. Why this is so I am unsure, but I could have expected that if I can edit the thumbnail picture to depict a scene from the recording on an DVD+R disc, I should also be able to edit the title to name said recording as well. As it is now, I cannot tell my recordings apart for they all list the titles as either &quot;Ch 3&quot; or &quot;Video source 1&quot; on my DVD+R discs which cannot apparently be changed, unlike the opposite in regard to DVD+RW discs. So when the DVD+R is finalized, though they do play on my DVD player, they give me no comprehensive written identification as to the content of the recording in the on-screen title window. Though on my DVD+RW I can title them on the disc, they will not play on my DVD player. Perhaps Cyberhome may be able to address this issue to help resolve this incongruity, but in the mean time my permanent archives are just that, &quot;permanent&quot;, with titles unremarkable and all. Otherwise, I am pleased with the rest of the recorders conveniences.
