Toshiba RD-XS52 DVD Player/Recorder with HDMI
Great product
The is my first product review I have posted on a website.  Since this is an expensive a/v unit, I wanted share my thoughts.  Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.  The video quality of the lowest \\"LP\\" settings is good enough for replaying of TV shows.  I can understand why some are frustrated with the menus.  However, this is a very sophisticated piece of a/v equipment.  With that, you should expect it to be more complicated than a VCR.  The important thing is that it does what it is supposed to do. <br /> <br />The one major thing I learned after purchase is that the coaxial connection is pass thru only.  You can only view content from the unit by the other video outputs. <br /> <br />If you are looking for a DVR without the whole Tivo thing or a something to help manage and copy home movies, I think this is a great product.
