Sylvania DVC800C DVD-VCR Combo
eh, mostly does what I ask
For playing DVDs, and vcr tapes, it mostly does what I ask.<BR>Biggest gripe is no manual tracking.  It is supposed to be automatic, but several tapes I have from other vcrs get sqiggly to the point of being unwatchable.<br />Setting up the maching to record is not intuitive IMO.  You need to steer around with the play, stop, rew buttons, even though there are arrow buttons elsewhere on the remote.  Also you cannot enter dates and times with the number buttons, you must steer around with the play, ff, rew, and stop buttons--very odd in my book.  Also you need to physically hit a button on the machine to finalize the timed record process.  Why??<br />The remote seems very dead.  You really have to point at the unit to get it to work.<br />So far it continues to work, after 6 months.  Picture quality meets my standards, though I don't ask for much.<br />So I give it an eh.  I'm sure you can find better, but for the most part, it does what I ask it to do.
