Philips DVDR75 Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder
A totally useless piece of JUNK
This multi-regional machine worked for 3 months, during which time, it often froze up, turned itself off whilst recording, or just refused to play certain discs. Three weeks after returning it to richer sounds, I was told it had been fixed, but still wouldn't play just one particular Region 1 disc. I got the staff to try three different machines ( same make/model) in the store, fresh from the box, and each machine was faulty,in one way or the other. After an hour or so, I decided to settle for taking my original &quot;fixed&quot; machine home. Imagine my suprise when my &quot;fixed&quot; machine wouldn't play any region 1 discs at all (over 100 in my collection). This is a totally useless piece of junk that refuses to work properly, but Philips won't admit to it having faults.    AVOID BUYING THESE DVD RECORDERS. Even if you are lucky enough to get your money back, the DVD+RW discs recorded with it can't be played on any other machine, and you won't be compensated for the cost of those wasted discs.
