The PV-C1320 has a number of useful playback features. Index search allows you to locate specific places of your movie or taped program, while program-end search is helpful for those tapes that have several shows and movies on them. Commercial skip allows you to speed past commercials during playback. A built-in V Chip helps parents monitor what their children are watching. Audio-video outputs and inputs are conveniently located on the front panel and can be used to hook up a camcorder or video game.

In case the power should go out, the PV-C1320 has a 24-hour power backup and automatic clock set that will save you the hassle of figuring out how to set the time. For quieter moments, a headphone jack on the front panel allows you to watch TV while the rest of the family is asleep. A full-function remote control is included.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little TV for bedroom or dorm room, August 15, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Panasonic PV-C1320 13" TV/VCR Combo (Black) (Electronics)
Very happy with this TV. Wanted something small to watch videos on in my bedroom and this is perfect. The picture quality from videos is actually better than on the 19" we've got in our living room. You have to set the clock or the light blinks incessantly, but overall it's feature packed. The remote is light and easy to use, automatically turns on captioning if you mute and has 30-sec fast forward to jump past recorded commercials. The onscreen navigation is very easy to use. Recommended if you're looking for a light, compact and fully functional TV/VCR combination.

5.0 out of 5 stars Take me to your dorm room!, October 13, 2000

This review is from: Panasonic PV-C1320 13" TV/VCR Combo (Black) (Electronics)
This is the perfect bedroom companion! The TV works beautifully, and the VCR is nicely integrated both on the set and via the remote. The adequate (but not great) FM tuner is a nice touch, and the alarm clock feature is wonderful, allowing you to get up to music or to TV. That it has a built-in battery source to counteract a power failure and an auto-time setting feature make it that much more secure when doing alarm clock duty. Overall, this is the Swiss Army Knife of small TVs.

This review is from: Panasonic PV-C1320 13" TV/VCR Combo (Black) (Electronics)
It's a great little TV, but there are some things to keep in mind before you buy it.

First of all, you will never use the FM radio tuner, so don't let that feature influence your purchase. The presets are erased if you unplug the unit, and the controls are too difficult to use for it to be worthwhile.

Second, the remote control is the worst-designed remote I have ever seen. It consists of 34 buttons -- all but two the same size and shape -- in a 1.5-inch by 3.5-inch space. The buttons are poorly arranged, so it will be months before you you will be able to operate the remote without looking at it. This is a major problem in the dark. The remote really will drive you nuts.

Third, there is no video-out port on the unit, meaning that you can't hook its VCR up to a larger TV. This may not be a big deal, but if you were expecting to be able to use the built-in VCR in every way that a regular VCR can be used, think again.

Fourth, for some bizarre reason, there are no picture controls on this TV. This means that you can't adjust the color, contrast, brightness, tint, etc. Probably not a big deal for most people, but it's something that is included on almost every other TV out there.

However, the TV has some really excellent features. The sound quality is excellent, although there is only one speaker, so you don't get stereo sound. The video quality is also quite good. The SLEEP function is good if you want to fall asleep with the TV on. The programming feature is top-notch -- you can set up eight separate programs to record your favorite shows, and you can set it up to record Monday-through-Friday, or every Monday, for example, or for one specific day. Although you can't watch one channel while it's recording another channel, the recording feature is very well done and easy to use.

By the way, although 13 inches sounds small, it is definitely large enough to see across a bedroom or dorm room.

It's probably worth the money, but it definitely has its flaws.
