JVC HR-S5900U Super-VHS VCR
If you do not get TIVO this is a good high end SVHS VCR
Great SVCR.<BR>Bad stuff:<BR> Like all SVHS VCRs other VHS decks cannot read the tape.<BR> Does not do \\"auto commercial advance\\". <br /> It worked great for time shifting until I got TIVO.  It has a much better picture than standard VHS. I planned on dubbing some tapes but never got around to it. This is one of three SVHS VCRs that sit. <BR>It will change channels on your cable box and is great for editing and very easy to program. I did run some of my Hi8 camcorder tapes out to it until I found my friends could not read the tape. All my VCRs are SVSH so now I just buy more 8 mm tapes and use the camcorder to play them.<BR>Everything is so integrated it feels like an empty plastic box but works<BR>Feature list:<BR>With high resolution Super VHS and VHS recording, VCR Plus+, Child Lock, Insert Editing with Flying Erase Head, Audio Dubbing, and Express Programming features, the JVC model HR-S5900U offers just what every TV fanatic needs. A front S-Video input simplifies connecting a camcorder, and special A/V Compu Link provides one-touch operation with matching JVC components.
