Sony RDR-GX7 DVD Recorder
Editing features leave a lot to be desired
I had a Phillips for 3 years and was very happy with it. Newer version had issues with extended recording so I returned it. Circuit City wasn't carrying Phillips DVD recorder anymore so I was left with Sony. DVD + and - is a great feature, but the editing on +RW and -RW is WAY too limited. Cannot create 2 titles from 1 unless in -RV mode, which won't play on any other DVD player. So that's pretty useless. So now if I want to edit any of the DVD's I make, I'll still have to buy another Phillips model.  <br />The picture is great on record/playback, and it plays the previous Phillips DVD's with no problem. It won't read the menu created by Phillips- with tag pictures.  <br />All in all, the DVD recorder works, but it could use a LOT of improvements. For the cost, I expected at least something that could compete with Phillips.
