Panasonic DMR-E80H Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder with Hard Drive , Silver
I Love this thing!!
I purchased my E80h from Amazon in February of 2004 and have had no problems at all. I love being able to record the shows I like, edit out the commercials and burn them to &quot;DVD-R&quot; discs which, when &quot;Finalized&quot;, work in my Philips DVD player.<BR> I have also burned &quot;DVD-RAM&quot; discs with no problem too. I have it hooked directly to the A/V ports of my cable box and set the record timer on L1 so I can get surround sound on my recordings, both the cable box and E80h are hooked to a small UPS in case of power failure(Which seems to happen here alot! for no reason!).<BR> The manual is a little challenging to understand but once you figure out how everything works it's a snap!<BR> I'm actually thinking of buying a second one for when I finally wear this one out as the newer ones are going to have Microsoft involved somehow.<br /> The one thing I would like to see is a real keyboard for entering titles.
