Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Toshiba SDV280 DVD/VCR Combo with DVD-R and MP3 Playback combines the ease of VHS with the quality and fun of DVD, even throwing MP3-playing capability into the mix.

Video Features
In addition to common DVDs and VHS tapes, this unit plays DVD-Video/CD/Video CDs, as well as DVD-R/CD-R/CD-RW discs made with a personal computer. Its ColorStream component video outputs deliver fantastic color images, and the VCR unit features a 4-head 19-micron system. A 10-bit 27mHz video digital-to-analog conversion with high-resolution filter also adds to color purity, detail, and resolution. When recording DVD to VHS, provided the DVD has not been encoded with the macrovision copy protection, this unit provides easy copying without color distortion. It also sports picture zoom, commercial skip, and many other standard features.

Audio Features
The SDV280 features 24-Bit/96kHz PCM audio compatibility, which improves the sound in many types of discs, producing warmer, more natural-sounding tones. It also sports coaxial and optical TosLink digital audio output, is MP3 audio compatible, and features VHS hi-fi stereo.

Other Features
This unit also includes icon-based onscreen displays, commercial skip, and picture zoom.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice looks, low quality, October 11, 2002

This review is from: Toshiba SD-V280 DVD-VCR Combo, Silver (Electronics)
The unit looks fabulous, and I had no trouble with the remote control on my television. However, I only had it for 6 weeks when the power supply died. It can't be repaired, and Toshiba won't honor the 90-day warrantee.

So, while it looks like a great product, the power supply is fragile and the customer service is one of the worst I've seen.

My advice: Go with a similar product from a company with higher standards of quality and customer commitment.

2.0 out of 5 stars Warning...Do not buy this combo unit, October 9, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Toshiba SD-V280 DVD-VCR Combo, Silver (Electronics)
I purchase this vcr/dvd combo today and was disappointed. My first dvd movie suddenly paused without warning...I could not start my movie and had to exit all together. Second, use of the remote control was frustrating. Save yourself some headaches...do not purchase. I'm returning my purchase tomorrow.

4.0 out of 5 stars ITS A COMBO, August 17, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Toshiba SD-V280 DVD-VCR Combo, Silver (Electronics)
First off being a combo unit it saves alot of shelf space and thats good. The dvd player is a very good unit. The pictures are bright and clear and colors seem very prominet-like film. The sound from the dvd player is equally good. All the subtle noies and loud moments come through clear. One problem though, on layer changes the player pauses a good 3 to 4 seconds. Although on Jurassic Park 3 I noticed nothing at all. It may depend on the disc so, its not a deal breaker for me. No digitizing occured during playback either. It has optical and coax outputs for DD and DTS sountracks. Also, "s" video, composite. and componet outputs. The vcr is like all vcr's today with all the basic functions. It does rewind very fast though, and it records unusally well in SLP mode. The playback of rental tapes and some of my own were ouite respectable. Not a bad vcr. With music cd's I was a little surprized. It sounded quite clear and of good quality to me on various types of music. One note though, the bass was very prominet. This may be because Im using the optical output for cd's for the first time and adjustments were needed in my receiver settings. So thats it . Quite a good little deal if you ask me. With exception of the layer changes and a poorly laid out instruction manual, the SD-V280 is a good deal.
