Akai DVDRW120 Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder
Excellent value DVD recorder
I've had this DVD recorder for a week and so far it has done very well. I have had no problem recording from DirecTV.<BR>I have been using KHypermedia DVD +R discs and the recordings play fine on my Apex AD 1500 and my Compaq R3000 laptop. <BR>(You need to finalize your DVD +R disc before playing on other players)<BR>From what I read on the web, this unit is identical to Daytek DVR-P30 and is a rebadged Liteon 5001 with a cooling fan. <BR>The main drawback is the inability to edit recordings to to filter commercials etc.<BR>Overall I am very happy with this purchase and hope it continues to perform well.
