Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Set yourself up to enjoy just about any current media format with JVC's versatile HR-XVC25U combination DVD player and VCR. With MP3/WMA and JPEG image CD playback and hi-fi VHS performance, the unit is built to satisfy your music and home-theater needs. The HR-XVC25U plays not only DVD and multiple CD formats, but DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD-R, CD-R, CD-RW, VCD, and SVCD as well.

For the DVD player, top-of-the-line component-video outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. Now you can also enjoy cutting-edge DVDs alongside an existing library of videocassettes. The unit even offers an RF output for use with older TVs that lack composite-video inputs. With S-VHS quasi playback, you'll be able to watch (in regular VHS resolution) tapes recorded in Super-VHS, normally only compatible with more expensive S-VHS machines. Advanced programming can be set for one months and eight events, and Commercial Skip search quickly skims over 30-second increments during playback to put your program back in front of you more quickly.

19 micron heads deliver the clearest possible picture when recording or viewing in EP (extended-play) mode. Auto Repeat (VHS: unlimited) and repeat playback (DVD: A-B) makes this unit a perfect choice for trade shows and conventions. Other VCR features include child lock (prevents unintended viewings), index search, skip search, auto clock setting, auto timer setting, and auto tracking.

Two sets of left/right analog-audio outputs (one for each component) channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

What's in the Box
DVD/VCR combo unit, a composite-video/stereo analog-audio interconnect, instruction manual, batteries, warranty info, and a multi-brand, full-function remote control that operates the combo player and most televisions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Pleased at first Now STUCK WITH A BOX OF JUNK, December 2, 2003
By 
J. Kelly (Hampton Bays, New York USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: JVC HR-XVC25U Progressive-Scan DVD/Hi-Fi VCR Combo (Electronics)
I have it hooked up to my Cablevision digital box. Everything works fine for me for both the VHS and DVD. Recording is a snap. The only complaint I have is that they have the input RCA ports on the front for gamers. But if you use them for connecting your cable box then they get in the way of the VHS tapes going in and out. They should have put a set in the back also.

Alert Alert alas I spoke too soon. DVD has broke after a year and about 30 uses. Never again JVC. Amazon won't let me change the star rating here. SO I GIVE IT 0 STARS NOW.

1.0 out of 5 stars Broken, March 24, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: JVC HR-XVC25U Progressive-Scan DVD/Hi-Fi VCR Combo (Electronics)
Put in the first DVD, got about 5 minutes in then shut the DVD off automatically and loaded the disc from the beginning, only to stop at the same spot again. Cleaned the DVD tried it again with the same results. Tried another DVD and it shut it off about 5 minutes in. Back into the box and back to Amazon the day after it arrived. DVD was noisier than our other players.

1.0 out of 5 stars Garbage, simply garbage!, April 18, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: JVC HR-XVC25U Progressive-Scan DVD/Hi-Fi VCR Combo (Electronics)
I've had this unit for about 4 months now. I bought it so I could play some DVDs that I was burning on my computer. I still need a VCR for the off chance I might watch a video but I don't watch videos enough to buy a seperate VCR. This seemed like the perfect solution.
What a pile of crap. Freezes up ALL the time. CAN'T play DVDs that I burn. My little portable DVD player does! This hunk of junk has been nothing but problems. It is too late to take back so I will just toss it in the trash and get a better model.
About 200 bucks right into the garbage! Thanks JVC!
