Go Video VR2940 DVD Recorder/VCR Combo
Don't Wast your money
When I purchased my Go Video VR2940 in January of 2005, from QVC (after returning the first two because they arrived DOA), I thought I had a gem of a product that would reduce my miles of VCR tapes to nice compact DVD's.  It worked OK at first, but then (after the 30 day return policy expired) it began freezing up, just like the other reviewers have mentioned.  Yes, the only remedy is to unplug the unit, and lose any programs for recording and the time and date set ups.  It has been a constant pain to get this machine to just turn on, let alone do what it was promised to do.  My high hopes for this product have instead turned to the depths of despair.  Plain and simple, it does not work.   <br /> <br />When I called GoVideo customer service, all I got was a pre-recorded message in spanish, followed by silence, and then a disconnect. Impressive.    <br /> <br />I just discovered there are upgrades available for the software loaded in the unit, and I am waiting to see if these upgrades will help, but I am not holding my breath.  All in all, I wish I would have saved my money and bought a Sony instead.
