Panasonic DMR-E30K Progressive Scan DVD Recorder
QUIRKY BUT GREAT ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT
These other reviewers who \\"BASH\\" this machine didnt take the time to find out what \\"works\\" with this machine. Many DVD-R'S wont work with this machine..Thats a fact. However I buy RITEK DVD-R'S by the case (500 Blanks) at a time and they work fine almost all of the time. Once in awhile you will get a \\"U11\\" error after recording less than 1 minute and the machine will go into \\"Recover\\" mode...Once this happens simply hit the OPEN button once and wait for the disc to be ejected..This takes about 20 seconds. SImply re-insert the Blank DVD-R and the problem will go away. Sure it's a pain...once in awhile but I have burned over 1500 DVD'S with AMAZING results and I can deal with the quirkiness. In this day of technology many things are Incompatible with one another much Like PC Software was in the 80's to Mid 1990's...You cant expect to buy something thats \\"Cutting edge\\" anymore and have it work with anything you feed it..Sometimes you have to do some homework on your own....
