Not as good as it should be, February 20, 2007
This review is from: Samsung DVD-TR520 Dual Drive DVD Recorder (Electronics)
I was hoping to get both a DVD recorder and a DVD duplicator in one. It works okay as a recorder, but it's not a very good duplicator. I've found it doesn't duplicate reliably. About 5% of the time the duplicated discs will not play, especially if the disc is full. It's not the media, since the same media works perfectly on my 3 to 1 tower duplicator. It's better to get a cheaper DVD recorder and a tower duplicator. You can get both for about the same price or slightly more than this DVD recorder.

Response to customer review, December 23, 2007
This review is from: Samsung DVD-TR520 Dual Drive DVD Recorder (Electronics)
The customer review for SAMSUNG DVD-TR520 DUAL DRIVE DVD RECORDER was very helpful in me determining whether to buy one. I was contemplating on buying a dual drive recorder for the purpose of recording DVD to DVD until I read his/her review. As I read the technical portion of it that this recorder only plays back Region 1, that may be the problem why the copy version does not play. If it copies from a region free DVR & it only records & play back on a Region 1 version, that could be the problem. I had that problem with my portable DVD player. In my research I found that I recorded from a region free disk but my portable recorder would only play back for Region 1 disk. I then had to buy a region free portable DVD player so I could play my recorded DVRs. Thanks to the customer review. Renee W.
