First of all, the unit works well and works as advertised. I'm a little disappointed in the remote. The button layout on the remote is quirky and I find myself staring at it to figure out how to do certain functions. Switching from dvd to vhs and back is not a smooth operation as many universal remotes are not fully aware of the sylvania dvr90ve combo so I find myself digging for the remote that came with the unit just to switch modes and I can then go back to using the universal remote (typically the comcast one). The clock auto-sets. Setting the unit to timer record is a bit quirky as well. Overall, I give this unit high marks for a modest cost unit that performs well but I had to knock off a few points for the quirky remote. Another area that is a little quirky is the long load time for the disk menu. It seems like an excessive wait before I am able to cancel out of the previews and get to the title I paid to watch. Often the wait time just to load the disk menu seems long. One nice feature is the ability to listen to mp3 music. I haven't yet burned an mp3 dvd, but I expect this to work fine. This would make my dvd player able to hold more than a 4 gig ipod nano. I'll also try recording a double-layer disk and edit this review later. 9 gig would probably hold my entire music collection. Of course you must have the tv on to navigate songs and folders. There are ample inputs and outputs, including a/v in on the front of the unit for transferring those pesky little 9mm tapes and mini-dv's to dvd. This is why we bought the unit, to convert our older home movies from various older formats to dvd. This is another reason for me to come back and edit this review.Read full review
Found this for a great price on eBay and works great as a VCR, DVD player. The DVD recorder is a bit finicky - only records DVD-RW format (and especially 1-2X speed). Unfortunately, I found out the hard way after purchasing DVD-Rs and even some higher speed DVD-RWs that didn't read properly. It is nice to be able to record 2 hours worth of programming on one DVD-RW though. I don't use the remote that much, so I don't really have an issue there. If the recorder worked with DVD-Rs, I would have given it a better rating...
I had owned one of these machines in the past and mine had finally died on me and this was my chance to get an identical one. However, this one is one the way out as well, it's too loud and when you put a disc in it sounds like it's being ground up but it is okay, I can get it fixed sometime in the near future.
