Summary: Buyer beware
Comment: I don't know if this has happened to other people. This unit is probably good with the right TV. I really wanted to get a high quality DVD/VCR recorder/player to play DVDs and VHS tapes and to copy videos to DVD, and this one sounded good. The problem (which I had never heard mentioned before) is that it's (apparently) not compatable with my Sharp Equos HDTV. The DVD player works fine, but when I put a VHS tape in, the picture blinks on and off. I cannot even express how frustrated I am, after looking at a lot of different models and picking one that I thought was just what I was looking for, and priced so that I could manage to purchase it, that it is useless with my TV. (Pardon me while I vent). I called the Toshiba customer support and they said it sounds like a problem with the TV. I called Sharp customer support and they said it is an incompatability problem. Why doesn't anybody mention this possibility? Am I the only one that this has happened to? OK, I'm done. Very dissapointed.

Summary: BUY THIS ONE IT WORKS
Comment: Very short - This unit DOES NOT have the Audio / Video syncronization problems that some units have. I tried a Samsung before this one and the Samsung had horrible audio delays. It was absolutely worthless. BUY THE TOSHIBA, trust me.

Summary: Exactly What I Needed!
Comment: I needed a method of getting my Sony Video8 tape cartridges backed up to DVD and this works flawlessly. Now with it on DVD I can capture the video copy on my computer and produce very good DVD video productions of these older recordings. I'm very satisfied with the Toshiba D-VR610.

Summary: Oh no, it ate the first two videotapes!
Comment: Just received this Toshiba DVR610 1018p in the mail and was excited to try it out. We popped in the first videotape (a family tape of important memories), hit play, and it made a terrible noise. We ejected the tape, but the machine had eaten the tape. Disappointment. Next, we tried another tape (an older one) and it ate it also. We returned the unit immediately.

Summary: Toshiba DVR610 1080P Tunerless DVD REcorder
Comment: DVD Is a great buy ... Does everything and more than expensive units provide. We are very satisfied. Negative - Tech manual is poorly written. You have to fill in the missing steps for various pahases of utilizing this Equipment. For us older users, - the LCD could be brighter and larger for viewing when using the remote. Again, it is a bargin for the price performance ...!!!
