JVC HR-S3900 Super-VHS VCR
Skip it
I would like to know who design this VCR.  Even though it is a Super VHS machine, it does not live up to the super part.  The channel, FW, REW and pause all use the same control, which is a rotary knob and very confusing to use.  Push the knob and rotate to select channels. Push and rotate for  FW or REW.  Push to pause.  Why would anyone try to use one knob for five different functions?  The remote must have been designed by the same person.  Once you program the remote to communicate with your TV or cable box you must hold the TV or cable button while pressing the function button that you want to use.   To raise the volume press and hold the TV button and while holding the TV button you then push the volume up button, this is dumb.   Setting a timer program you use the remote which has buttons for the start, end, date and on and on why so many buttons.  The record quality is not very good at all.  I have a Panasonic that records a much better picture and another thing JVC only records in SP or EP while the panasonic records in SP,SLP and EP.
