Sylvania DVC800C DVD-VCR Combo

Just passable on analog TV, not good on digital.

Recently hooked this up via Component cable to my 42" plasma HDTV for DVD playback. The bottom quarter of the picture is noticably fuzzy compared to the rest of the picture, especially for text. Definitely cheap junk, but can't afford a new...

JUNK

This product is a piece of JUNK!!! Mine is approx 6 months old, and will no longer record (vhs) for longer than 45min. According to a service tech I know, there is a chip that overheats, and when it does, causes about 6-9 inches of tape to get stuck...

Awful design

How do I hate this product? Let me count the ways. The technical design suggests that the DVD group and the VCR group took two different products and stuck them together without ever consulting each other. Although the playback quality appears fine,...

eh, mostly does what I ask

For playing DVDs, and vcr tapes, it mostly does what I ask. Biggest gripe is no manual tracking. It is supposed to be automatic, but several tapes I have from other vcrs get sqiggly to the point of being unwatchable. Setting up the maching to record is...

not great, wife hates it, had to buy a new one

I've had this DVD/VCR for several months. The display quality of DVDs and VHS is good. There are design deficiences that are annoying: must press a button on the unit (not remote) in order to activate VCR timer recordings, cannot stop a timed recording...

Great price

You get an excellent DVD/ VHS combo for a great price. It is possible to record from DVD to VHS if you have a AV cable.

Same as Emerson EWD2202, Horrible Remote

This unit is the same as the Emerson EWD2202 except for some minor cosmetic changes for obvious reasons. I also believe that this unit and the Emerson unit are actually manufactured by the Funai corporation. The remote control feels very cheap and has...

VERY PLEASED

THIS UNIT DOES ALL THAT I ASK OF IT VERY WELL. I FIND IT VERY EASY TO OPERATE. THE PICTURE QUALITY IS GREAT AND I AM PLEASED I COULD PURCHASE SUCH A FINE UNIT AT SUCH A REASONABLE PRICE. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

Good all around system

I purchased this system before doing a lot of investigation...luckily, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it performed. I'm no expert on the technical aspects, but the vhs and dvd players work just fine for me. This is a very inexpensive system...
