 FANTASTIC November 2, 2008

This item has everything you need DVD player, Video and Freewiew all in one machine and one remote. All this for a fantastic price too. You do need to supply your own scart lead (a small additional cost).
Normally my television reception in my area is rubbish, so I don't get many channels. But the Freeview built in was fantastic and picked up most (if not all) the freeview channels.
I was very worried that this would be complicated to tune in, but it could not have been easier. Just remember to switch the machine to VCR mode to watch Freeview.
 Good for dubbing but some minor drawbacks November 2, 2008

The D-VR18 works very well when dubbing from videotape to DVD. If this is what you want it for, you will be pleased. Dubbing is started with a single button, and when STOP is pressed, it stops both the videotape and the DVD, so it's easy to dub one long videotape into chapters on a DVD. It also reads all my old tapes. Minor drawbacks are the time it takes for a DVD to load. I have timed ten to 20 seconds, depending on the DVD. I also find the software overly complex, requiring more steps than my old Panasonic DVD recorder. I have a DVR for easy TV recording and only use this DVD recorder for dubbing old tapes and archiving stuff I want to keep, dubbing them from the DVR to DVD. I am pleased with the unit for these purposes but if it was my only recorder, the start-up time would bother me.
