Cyberhome CH-DVR1600 DVD Recorder
If you like reliable recording don't even think about this!
I've had this \\"DVD Recorder\\" for about a year.  I bought it when my VCR started eating tape.  I was able to hook this baby up & use all in about 15 minutes and I've never used a DVD Recorder before.  This worked fine, at first.  Then it started malfunctioning.  I would record directly from my TV tuner or from a VHS transfer and I'd get a variety of error messages.  The problem was not user error it's this machine.  Last night I've had it. When a person takes their time and energy to record something they hope they can watch in the future only to find that their DVD has turned to garbage it's not worth it!!!   <br /> <br />Trust me on this.  Is it really worth being able to record about 80% of the time?   <br /> <br />This machine will stop recording, it will make noise like it's recording but that's your first clue it's not because when it records it doesn't make that sort of noise.   <br /> <br />I called Cyberhome numerous times.  During my last call some guy told me he'd send me a fix DVD but he didn't.  I own a Cyberhome DVD player which works fine.  I'll never buy this model DVD Recorder again!
