Toshiba RD-XS32 Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder with 80 GB Hard Drive
Worked as expected, good value.
I have had this recorder for almost two weeks now and all functions work as expected.  The recorded DVD-R has no problem viewing in other players (including GE, Shinco, KLH, Go-Video, and Sony) and I have not experienced the black-level problem.   <br /> <br />Here are some suggestions for improvment: <br />1) better manual ... I guessed the problem could be from Japanese to English translation <br />2) bigger numeric keypad in the remote control <br />3) improve loading time during power-on initialization <br /> <br />Overall, I am satisfied with this product.
