JVC HMDH5U Digital VHS High-Definition Recorder
Problems with HDMI with JVC HMDH5U
The HDMI on this unit would not work out of the box.  Playback problems are frequent.  The unit will shut off and restart after 20 seconds.  I use it mainly for playback of recordings from the 169time processor.   I have used the JVC 30000U and never had any problems. I have purchased two JVC 40000U units and neither one worked out of the box.  Received error message 201.. calibrating. I called JVC and they told me to send the units to a service center.
