Rating: Summary: An Excellent Hi-Fi VHS VCR At A Great Price! Review: I just got this and connected it to my Philips real flat screen dbx hi-fi stereo TV with P.I.P.(32PT81S) using only A/V cables. I put in a video immediately. It has an excellent picture! And it is very easy to use. Its menu can either be set in English or Spanish. It has a 1-year/8-event program timer. Its clock can either be set manually or programmed to set automatically through a PBS station's signals. I have DirecTV. So, I set the clock manually. I found it can not be set automatically through DirecTV like it can either with cable or an antenna. And I have its D.S.T.(Daylight Savings Time) activated. That way, its clock will automatically go back an hour in the fall and forward in the spring. I also like its auto tracking, instead of having to manually adjust that. Plus, in addition to its excellent picture, it has an excellent hi-fi stereo sound. And I like to be able to play it either in regular speed or slow. It does not have VCR Plus like prior hi-fi stereo VHS VCR's I have owned. But with DirecTV, I do not need that feature. I also like its various automatic timer adjustments for recording shows, movies or sports events. And I do not have to be home or have my TV turned on to record. As long as I have the right station tuned in and have the timer set to record, it does the rest. As easy as it is to use and set up, as well as its excellent Philips Magnavox quality and features, not to mention its low price, I highly recommend this hi-fi VCR to everyone!
Rating: Summary: Buying this VCR was a mistake Review: I purchase this item on the basis of high reviews posted. After using it I think it was vastly over-rated. The programming interface is pathetic. Takes about 10 steps to schedule or delete an item to record. You can display what you have programmed only by viewing one item at a time. You cannot edit an item programmed -- have to delelte it entirely. Recording on one channel while watching another channel is a mess. My Mitsubishi was far superior in this regard.

Rating: Summary: Works great with satellite dish! Review: If you currently have a satellite system this is a great VCR for you. You can set your satellite receiver to turn on and tune to a specific program, then this VCR will automatically turn on and record the program. No more struggling with the VCR set up and missing the recording. I love it!
