Sony RDRHX715 DVD Recorder
RDRHX900
I don't own the RDRHX715. I have the previuos model. The 900. I suffer through the TVGOS reset problem, probably about 1 a month. I have not lost any of my recorded settings though.<br /><br />It controls the cable box just fine. IR blaster does a good job of changing the channels.<br /><br />The component video i/p is just plain awesome. i have used these to archive HD programming stored on my Time Warner HD DVR. I know it is downconverted to SD, but the picture quality is still outstanding.<br /><br />Editing shows on this is just plain easy and quick to do. I can do this faster than on my PC! I like that. Have not yet burned any dud disks. all have been good.<br /><br />Gripes - i do not like that you cannot delete a recording while it is recording.<br /><br />I do not like the TVGOS reset. Overall, i have been very pleased even with all the issues on the TVGOS.
