Gateway AR230 Progressive-Scan DVD Player / Recorder
junk
I bought this item in May 2004.  It worked for awhile when I recorded  my tapes onto discs.  Now if I record a disc, it won't play in other DVD players, nor this one.  Also, if I record a show and want to continue to record onto the disc later, it doesn't work and the disc is useless.  When recording, it has frozen many times--like if you want to cut out commercials.  The player will not play many discs previously recorded on this player. Do NOT waste your money.  I don't care how cheap this product gets. Cheap is what it is. It's not worth it!!!
