I own this DVD player/recorder and it has been very reliable as a recorder and a player. My first recorder was an RCA that took only DVD+RW's ( The most expensive of the lot). I stress this in capitol letters BUY-SONY-DVD's. Both my RCA and this SV2000 record every time with the white Sony DVD recordable discs ( The SV2000 records perfect on SONY DVD+R 16X DISCS). I have had very little, to horrible, to no success at all with Maxell, Memorex, and TDK brands in all varieties of recordable DVD's. when trying to record on both the RCA DVD recorder and the SV2000. If you look closely at all of the brands you will notice that the Sony discs have the recordable surface much closer to the center on the disc as compared to the others. Maybe the laser can't detect the reflective recording surface at the beginning of the formatting cycle??) Bottom line BUY SONY they always work. Something else to point out, always try your disc a couple of times when recording. I've noticed with both recorders often times I had to press stop after getting a ' This Disc Is Unable To Record' message, and pressing record once more it recorded fine, but press stop first. I suggest experimenting both Writable and RE-Writable Sony discs. It took me two weeks to figure out that you can set your record time by pressing the REC MODE button on the front of the SV2000. Watch the bottom corner of the screen as it goes from 1 hr up to 6 hr's when pressing the button. A usb computer interface would be nice, although these days you can get tuner cards for your computer that have coaxial or S-video plugs that you can easily use with your on board DVD burner ( 'My crow sinner' $30<). install a HighMAT plugin and you can look at a slide show on your TV with music etc. So get surfin' Grandma!

i love it works just like any other recorder clear picture set up chapters the way you want them

Seller was great! As described all parts were included and had original manual. It's the best DVD recorder on the market. I have one and purchased this one for my mother. She is 65 and has a hard time with the newer DVDs to program. This one is so simple. I've had mine since 2005 and have Never had a problem with it. I trust this one will last a long time as well.

I have been using this recorder for over a year. I love its capabilities.
Especially the various recording times, from 1 hour to over 6 hours. The 6 hour recordings are of very fine quality. I highly recommend this recorder.

The DVD Was Sent Without A Remote And I Am Not Happy With That.
