Magnavox MDV630R DVD Recorder/Player
A defective front S-video input.  Everything else is great.
I bought this DVD burner from a local Target.  The machine is made in Hungary.  After a month of trials, I've found the S-video input in the front (CAM 1) does not work and an expert has confirmed it.  Fortunately, it has an S-video input in the back using EXT 2. This one works, so I've decided not to return this item to the store, a complicated process.  Compared with Korea, Taiwan and China that have more than 20 years of experience in making the consumer electronics, Hungary is relatively new in the field and defects in the product are therefore understandably more common. DVD+R and DVD+RW from this machine can be played in my Sony DVD player, though the Sony's manual says it plays only DVD-R and DVD-RW.  My Apex player can also play it.  However, it cannot be played in my 1.5-year-old Sony notebook.  The image quality of this DVD burner makes all VHS VCRs obsolete.
