IT TURNED ITSELF OFF AFTER RUNNING FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS. TRIED TO GET IT TO STAY ON MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE PACKING IT UP AND SENDING IT BACK. NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO TRY IT OUT. I RECOMMEND AVOIDING THIS DECK.
We don't have Tivo or a DVR so we rely on the VCR to tape programs occasionally. If you only want a DVD player and play only pre-recorded tapes on this unit you should be pleased. We had problems after we had it for 6 months. If you want to record a lot forget this unit and look elsewhere. When the tapes are played back the picture rolls like old TV's with manual tuning knobs did. We have tried all kinds of tapes in all grades with the same result. We have had this unit for over 2 years now.
The VCR plays pre-recorded tapes OK, but recording is a problem. The DVD player has worked very well with heavy play. We have watched entire TV shows and movies with no trouble. High quality VCR's are a thing of the past.
Will not buy Samsung product of this type ever again. purchased in 2005, have used a lot, but it still shouldn't have died in 3 years. Don't buy it, you'll regret it.
This Samsung made the grade. The unit is easy to operate and looks marvelous set on an acrylic shelf above my HD player. I was looking for a slim DVD player that would allow me to streamline my equipment in my home office. Much better than the old one that took up too much space and didn't fit into my decor.
We were disappointed from the get go with how SLOW it worked. It takes a long time to load and skip scenes. We have hardly used this player and already it is broken. NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY. Buy another brand altogether. The DVD door will not open any longer, and to remove our son's DVD we are going to have to take the whole thing apart. When we replace this one, WE WILL.
