GO VIDEO DVD Recorder + VCR VR3930
HOW TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS
My GO VIDEO DVD/VCR Recorder has worked fine, with only a few minor issues.  Recently it stopped recognizing DVD+R discs, but worked fine with DVD-R discs.  I bought a DVD HEAD CLEANER for less than $10 (available everywhere for as little as $3+ship or as much as $20).  Now it works great for all discs again.  When I FINALIZE DISCS so that I can play them on other DVD players, if I play it on my widescreen 32\\" LCD HDTV, I see faint lines that look like a giant fingerprint.  I haven't tried this after I cleaned the head, so it might be better now.  This isn't the highest quality equipment in the world but it's one of the best that I have ever owned.
