(More customer reviews)This is a great product. I copied an old VHS tape to a DVD-R and for the most part was happy with the results. The picture actually looked clearer on the DVD than playing from my VCR. I was able to make chapter marks on the DVD-R but had to stop recording to do this and then start recording again. You could make automatic marks in 5, 10, 15, 30 minute intervals as well. You could only make manual chapter marks with a DVD-RW.
I have an old Panasonic DVD player and was able to play the finished DVD in the player. The nice part was instead of this playing like a VHS tape I now have a menu with my own titles to skip through.
The only two negatives so far are that If you delete a titled section, instead of the section moving to the block before it, it is deleted for good. I actually had this issue when using it. The second negative was it took a little while to finalize the DVD when finished. I walked away and just came back later. The process finished on its own and the menu was showing on the screen when I cam back. The DVD worked fined and was able to play in my old machine - not before it was finalized though (which I expected).
Overall, for the price, I highly recommend this execellent machine. The only other gripe is there is no firewire connection for my camcorder. I did not make this a negative for the player since I can just use the RCA and S-video jacks.

The DV-SR45U is an integrated DVD recorder and DVD player that lets you make simple, one-touch video recordings onto durable, rewriteable DVDs for collecting, sharing, time-shifted viewing, and video archiving of your VHS tapes and camcorder footage. Its built-in TV tuner lets you record your favorite programs live or via timer, and a 30-second skip function makes it a cinch to hop past commercials or other content with ease.Other features include CD/MP3 playback, DVD+R/+RW playback, and 1-year, 8-event scheduling. Rewriteable DVD-RW media can be recorded more than 1,000 times, holding 60 minutes in XP mode and an amazing 600 minutes (10 hours) of programming in SEP mode. The recorder's editing function will erase sections of recorded scenes easily. Select any image you like to represent a scene's thumbnail image for chapter selection. On rewritable discs, you can add chapter marks, delete parts of titles, and set representative thumbnail images.Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DV-SR45U is ready to deliver the full potential of your commercial DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The DV-SR45U sports one set of progressive-scan component-video outputs and 1 each composite- and S-video outs for use with SD (standard-definition) TVs as well as with VCRs or DVRs.Inputs consist of 2 each composite- and S-video, with 2 sets of stereo analog (left/right) RCA audio inputs. One set of AV/S inputs is conveniently located on the unit's front panel for ready connection to a camcorder or other device. An RF audio/video input accepts a feed from an older VCR or cable box, or an antenna, while a single RF output passes an NTSC tuner signal to another component.In the audio department, this unit--like many other DVD recorders--compresses all incoming audio signals with Dolby Digital 2.0, which conserves space but slightly compromises audio quality. A set of left/right RCA analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.The DV-SR45U simplifies the process of searching for a specific moment on a disc through its high-speed-access thumbnail views and Quick Search functions. In addition, this DVD recorder also features a Block Noise filter that decreases overall noise in the playback picture.The DV-SR45U is CPRM-compliant. CPRM stands for stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media, a copy-protection system triggered by specific CPRM programs. You can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.What's in the Box DVD recorder, remote control, remote batteries, an RF coaxial video cable, a composite-video/stereo analog audio cable, a quick-use guide, and a user's manual.
