JVC HRS5902U 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR, Black
very good machine
I don't have this machine . But I've owned several JVC VCR's with svhs and ET recording which are great for your library of family videos. <br /> I used to transfer my 8mm videos to svhs for my family videos until my video camcorder died on me and now I have a DV8 camcorder but I still transfer for a svhs back up copy ( you never know when that camcorder is ready for it's final resting ground ). <br />  A little something to remember about when transfering to DVD.  <br /> From what I've learned is DVD video uses compression technology to reorganize the the original data to a more smaller amount of data . Sort of like pouring 10 oz of milk into a 1 oz glass. <br /> Each transfer of your DVD video to the next loses data because of this compression technology.The only formats that capture and don't lose the digital data are DV8 , DV , and D VHS . I just thought you'd like to know this information when transferring your home videos. Hopefully in the future as the DVDs hold more data they won't have to rely on compression.  <br />                          Good luck in your videos ,  DON
