Aiwa HV-MX100 Hi-Fi Multi-System VCR
Fantastic multi system VCR
Well, quite simply I think this VCR is fantastic. It is easy to use, easy to install, easy to everything. Just pop in your videotape and watch it - doesn't matter where it's from, the VCR decides what system it is and decodes it. Are you a Brit Abroad? You need this. Now you can get all your mates back in blighty to tape the good stuff for you (big train, the fast show, shooting stars, you can't get any of it here you know) and you can watch it with ease. If you really want to, tape your favourite shows in PAL and mail them back to your friends. I am extremely happy with this VCR.<br />If you are from france, you may not want this item, since according to the manual, it doesn't deal with the french version of SECAM (only the most expensive ones do - that's the french for you, always have to be different).<br />Other good stuff - it automatically switches voltages, and doesn't have a hard wired power cord, so you just get a new power cord if you move to another country, plug it in, and bob's your uncle! You can take this VCR anywhere.<br />Now if someone would send me all the Alan Partridge episodes, I would be really happy. Ah well.
