Panasonic DMR-EZ47VK Tabletop DVD/VCR Combo Player Black

For: $244.98

The DMR-EZ47 offers high image quality in both recording and playback, easy operation, and improved networking capabilities. It comes equipped with the HDMI terminal, which allows easy, single-cable connection to compatible equipment. The DMR-EZ47 also offers Panasonic's proprietary VIERA Link functions for linked operation of other AV devices, and these functions are now even more convenient. It is now possible to control an optional DIGA recorder, when connected to a Panasonic VIERA TV, using VIERA's remote control unit. This provides convenient control over frequently used functions by using only VIERA's remote. By pressing the VIERA Link button on the remote, a DIGA menu screen can be accessed directly from the VIERA Link menu screen, to make recording settings or play a DVD. By combining intelligent i/p Conversion and 1080p Up-Conversion technologies, DIGA's 1080p technology renders high-resolution 1080p images from DVD movies and TV broadcasts to compatible TVs. The Accutune high-precision analog/digital tuner achieves stable signal reception even under poor signal conditions, such as when signals are reflected by surrounding buildings. The Accutune Digital Tuner is a high-performance hybrid tuner capable of receiving both digital and analog broadcasts. It uses a signal processor to effectively control noise and distortion, and its proprietary matching circuits allow it to transform and separate digital broadcasts into the appropriate digital or analog signals. With the built-in Digital Tuner, this will also allow you to record one digital broadcast program while watching a second program. The Tape input signal is automatically detected and optimized using Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) to provide an easy way to even more beautiful digital recordings from VHS tapes. Super Multi-Format Recording & Playback Digital Broadcast Capable - Built-in ATSC Tuner Automatic Program Information Acquisition Long Time

DVD's burned from programmed TV programs won't play on other DVD players. Clock won't set automatically and loses 30 seconds per week. DVD's burned from VHS won't play on other DVD players. Panasonic customer service isn't much help either.

Everything is as the other reviewers said but it doesn't do me any good as I cannot 'finalize' the newly created DVD. As par for the course, the manual is written in Japanese-American so its not the easiest to read. On page 10 3a, it says just to pre

It was OK when I first got it other than when using the built in tuner to watch TV the picture would have lines in it like bad reception. I could record a show and play the DVD on another TV and the lines weren't there so I guess it was just a weak

As above, I love the quality of the recording but meandering through the recording menu is quirky and not obvious. I love the ease of the onscreen menu RCA and others have used and really wish Panasonic would use something similar. I have no solid id
