RCA VR661HF 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR, Silver
Commercial Advance Needs Some Work
This model has some great features but they need some fine tuning.  Unfortunately the commercial advance needs the most work. It does very well on basic commercials but seems to miss almost all commercials for the network's upcoming shows. It is also quite frustrating if you've recorded say, a Yankees/Red Sox game. It cuts off the final play of almost every inning!! This forces you to watch with your finger on the play button every time there are two outs! The commercial advance also takes a long time to mark the commercials. A basic 1 hour show will take almost 15 minutes to mark. On the positive side... the menu is very easy to set up and use, and the auto tracking is great. Basic features such as rewinding will be difficult to use without the remote(you end up holding down the button for almost 10 seconds); so if you frequently lose the remote this is not the model for you!
