Go Video VR2940 DVD Recorder/VCR Combo
I must be the one person that likes it...
Lots of bad reviews it seems, but I'm happy with mine. <br /> <br />BUT...there is a problem with the unit in that if you don't turn off the auto-update of the clock, and you are on regular cable, the unit will freeze up.  This may explain some people's bad experiences.  There's a page on GoVideo's web site that explains it, but really they need to fix this problem. <br /> <br />Other than that, I've been a busy beaver copying our home videos to DVD, and they all turned out fine.  This is the only unit that has the wonderful YES-DVD feature, so that alone would be worth putting up with a lot of grief for.  If you want a DVD recorder to transfer a lot of old home videos to, and you don't want to have to manually make the chapter divisions for each one, this is what you want.  It also creates a cover jacket for you automatically. <br /> <br />But I wish it had a S-video input, a way to have it not create those dumb music videos on a YES-DVD, and the cover jacket had a way to easily add my own titles.
