GoVideo VR5940 Dual-Deck DVD Recorder and VCR
Think twice before you go for it.
If you want to burn disks with your pictures or movies from auntie Clara birthsday, done with your camera, that's what you are looking for. <br />On the other hand, if you are like me, an owner of several hundred VHS cassetes with movies that deserve archiving on disks for further reviews at the time when VCR is going to be as popular as dinosaurs, you are going to be disappointed. About 70 per cent of my VHS stock is copy-protected and this (and I suspect all other units on the market) won't copy them. I understand that rights of the authors and artist are clicking in, but why do I feel that my rights as a rightful owner, were completely disregarded and dismissed? <br />The unit is easy to setup. The manual might be better, clearer, but still the setup is a breeze. Although, first unit that came, died within a day or two, the old good Amazon acted amazingly quickly and the replacement came within days (thank you Amazon!). <br />Before I decided to send the unit back, I sent an e-mail to the Customer Service. I would like to point out that till now (about a week) I didn't hear from them. I tried to have a conversation with \\"White Gloves\\" representative. After long time of manouvring through automated menus (they are trying desperately to get rid of you from the start, hoping that listening to lengthy menus will vex you to the point of hanging up), \\"White Gloves\\" tech. support happend to be an arrogant man that tried to direct me to their web site rather (I was there before, reading carefully all FAQ) and finally hung up on me not bothering himself with offering any solution. <br />If you buy it, you are on your own.
