Toshiba SD-V392 DVD/VCR Combo , Silver
Just barely accptable
I have waited several months to give using this unit a fair chance to prove itself, but there are just too many features that are not user-friendly to warrant anybody else getting stuck with this piece of junk.  A few of my gripes: <br /> <br />1. There is nothing intuitive about setting the timed recording features.  One almost has to learn and remember a programming language to be sure to get it right given the bewildering array of all-too-small buttons. <br />2. As some one else said too -- it won't record in LP; just standard and super long-play. <br />3. It freezes up all too frequently in DVD.  Not fatally, but annoyingly.  Taping often have major \\"static\\" bursts recorded. <br />4. For some reason it turns on DVD when it shuts off after recoding a TV program in VHS.  If you try to record two sequential programs on different TV channels it won't do it while you're watching the TV. <br /> <br />All-in-all, not something worth buying.  Hardly worth bothering with as a gift. <br />
