GoVideo R6530 - Would be an OK unit - if it worked.

bygtff Jan 12, 2004
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Price, good feature set, jpeg-capable, tech support readily available
Cons small remote with too-small buttons, tacky design, unreliable burning
Recommended it? No

I just sent back my second GoVideo R6530. Consistant problems of unpredictable frequent repeated skipping, sometimes several chapters at a time. First one did it on two different brands of DVD+RW blanks, including the one that came with the unit. Thought it was just a dud unit and sent it back to... Read full review »

Don't "Go" There

Pros Price, stylish case, DVD+RW discs don't need finalizing to be compatible with most...
Cons Missing features, quirky user interface.
Recommended it? No

I bought the Go Video/Sonic Blue R6530 DVD recorder as a replacement for my VCR. I wanted a unit that records on DVD+RW discs because I'd read that you can play DVD+RWs in most DVD players without formatting or finalizing, both time-consuming processes. That makes the reusable DVD+RW discs just as... Read full review »

Junk in my opinion

byhamburgerman Nov 4, 2005
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros None.
Cons I had two machines, neither worked properly. Overheats easily.
Recommended it? No

This will be a very short review as my experience with a WORKING Cyberhome 1600 is very limited. I purchased one in May '05 at my neighborhood Best Buy.

I tried to transfer footage from my DV Camcorder, but ran into problems right away. The machine must format the DVD+R disc before... Read full review »

Pros Inexpensive, good instruction manual.
Cons Poorly made, remote would not work properly, entire unit broke after 6 weeks.
Recommended it? No

I purchased the Cyberhome DVR 1600 DVD Recorder at my local Best Buy in March. I was confident that I was buying a good product because # 1 – it's coming from Best Buy and # 2 – I have a compact Cyberhome DVD player that has worked fine for a couple of years. I needed a new DVD player to replace a... Read full review »
