Rating: - I work with DVDs/videos, and this has made my job so much easier
I work with a lot of videos, and I can honestly say that the Toshiba DVR610 1080p is simple to understand and creates excellent results. Just like the EP,SLP, and LP speeds on a VCR, the choice of speeds (this one has 5) is one of my favorite functions. Depending on the quality of the picture I choose, and the DVD format I choose, the possibilities of creating a DVD the way I want are endless. I can set and title my own chapters and recording from TV, converting VHS home movies to DVD, connecting ... Read More
Rating: - Couldn't be happier
I have been dubbing VHS to DVD for years using an early and expensive Sony DVD recorder and a Sony VHS tape player but the process was tedious and the Sony recorder is very picky about the disc media it will accept. I decided to look into a single unit VHS/DVD recorder and after a lot of investigation decided on the Toshiba DVR 610. The price was right and it's an excellent product. You can copy from VHS to DVD or vice versa and you can copy video from a digital camcorder to DVD. Both processes are ... Read More
Rating: - Very Disappointed
I bought this unit in July and four months later (November), it already stopped working correctly. The DVD tray wouldn't come out and
made a grinding noise. Problem couldn't be corrected without sending unit in for repair. Unfortunately, Toshiba only covers free labor for 90 days and parts for one year for this model. The flat rate for labor is $70.00, plus you have to pay for shipping and insurance yourself. You are not reimbursed for shipping or mailing insurance costs. So it would have ... Read More
Rating: - This VDR/DVD Unit Does the Job!
I was very hesitant to purchase a VCR to DVD player, since it seems many of the units have various issues and problems. I wanted to basically burn old VCR tapes to DVD for their preservation. After about 12 conversions, I can safely say this item does an excellent job! About the only negative would be the directions are not written very clearly. Even that is not a big deal, since basically all you do is start the VCR in the play mode and press DVD, then dub. Also, remember to finalize the disk once your ... Read More
Rating: - WORTH THE MONEY
I haven't had time to gain much operating experience with it yet, but it seemed to do a fine job the couple of times I did use it. The recording quality appeared to be excellent.
My one complaint is that when the recorder is not close to eye level - and I believe most users would not have it set up that high - the optical display is impossible to see. In my case I had to continually kneel on the floor to see what the unit was doing. Although the recording quality is better than my LITEON unit, ... Read More
