Panasonic DMR-E10 Progressive-Scan DVD-RAM Recorder and Player
BEWARE - PLAYBACK IS NOT AS IT SEEMS
Please note this vitally important information that you can only know AFTER you purchase this DVD player and read Page 6 of the Operating Instructions: &quot;DVD-RAM discs recorded using this unit cannot be played on other DVD players (including units made by Panasonic except specific players having DVD-RAM playback capability). The only type of blank disc which the unit can record (and play back) is a DVD-RAM/RAM 4.7 (type 2 cartridge recommended but type 1 can also be used).&quot;<br />Therefore, when you tape on this machine, you CAN ONLY playback on this machine or other SPECIAL Panasonic machines (that have only just been released with DVD-RAM functionality) and you have to use special DVD's as well. Be careful, this is far less useful when you cannot give a taped DVD's to your friends and family to watch without giving them your DVD player as well !!<br />Good luck,
