Perfect recorder Author: The picture quality of this recorder is what distinguishes it from the competition. The on-screen menus maybe aren't perfect or even as good as on a Sony player, but anyone who appreciates great image and sound quality shouldn't look any further than this Pana. Rating: 5_0

Must have perfect signal Author: exep I've had this recorder for three months and like it except for a design fault. If a station's signal is not perfect, even though this doesn't effect picture quality, the machine puts a large banner across the bottom of the screen saying 'Bad Signal'. It is impossible to get rid... Rating: 3_0

It didn't work for me Author: stefanmorawiec I purchased this item on the recommendation of other purchasers. Great reviews etc and a fantastic price. Sadl, I got a "WRONG UN".

Not so happy now Author: woodsider5 I was looking forward to getting my machine and setting it up after reading the reviews. What a disapointment, ok the picture quality is good but I must say no better than most I have seen. The 1080p upscaling does improve the dvd quality but when I showed my son he... Rating: 1_0
