Panasonic DMR-ES35VS DVD Recorder / VCR Combo with DV Input
ATE MY VHS TAPE
The first time I went to use this I put in a VHS tape to dub to dvd. <br />Discovered the entire left side of the machine did not work and remote had no eject button.  I called panasonic but everything they suggested involved hitting buttons on the nonfunctioning left side.  They finally said I should take it to their repair shop 30 miles from my house. FORTUNATELY I had put in a tape with stuff I didn't care alot about- I'm just gonna return the dmr.  <br />My advise: any time you buy a new dvd player, recorder, or vhs put in a disc, or tape you don't care about when you are first trying it. <br />By the way, I have no idea if any other parts worked/ or didn't work: I repacked it up immediately.
