Quality


Very easy to use, and versatile product.


This is the best machine for recording from television (for my own use).


I bought it to record 8 mm movies, you just plug the camera, insert a dvd and click record.


I just hook up my video recorder to it and it tells you when it is done and picture quality is the same!
