Panasonic PV-D4745K Dual-Deck Progressive Scan DVD Player/VCR Combo (Black)
Solves DVR Campatibility Problems
A few years ago I purchased a Panasonic DVR.  Over time, I have recorded several DVD-Rs from the DVR.  Much to my surprise, the DVD-Rs will not play on several non Panasonic DVD machines, even if they are advertised as being capable of playing the DVD-R format.  After trying several brands, I finally purchased the dual deck Panasonic, and it has faithfully played all my recorded DVD-Rs to date.  This problem should be carefully considered before buying any DVR.
