A solid combo dvd recorder/vcr

byapril54 May 23, 2007
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros A compact combo that does +DL recording exceptionally well.
Cons No flexible record mode and limited support for +rw media.
Recommended it? Yes

This unit has a ATSC tuner for high definition TV, a NTSC tuner for standard broadcast, and a QAM tuner for receiving unencrypted, high definition TV from basic analog cable. Cable companies must provide free local HD channels on basic analog cable by law apparently. It can record to either the vcr... Read full review »

It's broke

Pros Nice Features and worked great!(until it broke)
Cons It is broke.
Recommended it? No

I wish that I could say that this is a great product and that I'm very pleased, but unfortunately I'm not.

It's a shame to hear that these devices are prone to locking up, and unfortunately, I'm also victim of a bad unit.

Pros VHS-DVD dubbing and vice-versa; QAM tuner; fairly easy record programming.
Cons Hard to setup; remote difficult to use; won't display other DVR-recorded DVD menu.
Recommended it? Yes

In compliance with Federal digital standards/requirements, my cable company recently converted to a system that requires its customers to rent a cable box to receive its signal, unless the customers have a QAM-based tuner in the TV and audio/video equipment.

The new, required, cable box... Read full review »

Cons Stopped working after three months
Recommended it? No

I bought the Toshiba DVR670 from Costco to transfer some of my old VCR tapes to DVDs,  It worked fine for a few months - pretty good picture, easy to set up and use.  After about three months, it simply stopped working - it wouldn't even turn on.  Costco gave me a full refund, but my...
