Panasonic DMR-EH50S DVD Recorder with 100 GB Hard Drive Recording
flakey dvd recorder
Bought panasonic dmr-eh50 about 2 months ago. First 3 weeks it recorded programs I selected and at least the recorder worked. But then for apparently no reason, it stopped recording scheduled programs. It continued recording programs I manually selected but no automatic recording for scheduled programs I selected. Also,it has a serious reset problem. Sometimes every minute, sometimes every 2-3 minutes, it gets a blue screen for 2-4 seconds and then brings the program back.  The TV guide feature was a big disappointment and is not fully featured. The entire thing needs redesign because sometimes I cannot navigate between scheduled programs and TV guide-- just a flakey, not ready for prime time product. Have had good luck in past with panasonic products but after this, I won't buy panasonic brand.
