 Toshiba DVR610 April 20, 2008

We bought this DVR player/recorder because a friend had purchased the same product a few months earlier and was very satisfied with it. Likewise, we are too. Good product for the price.
Don't Pay More For Tuner If You Have A Box--Works Great October 1, 2008
16 out of 16 found this review helpful
This is my first DVD recorder, except for my computer. Manual is confusing but isnt to hard to play with and figure out. Was recording in minutes.
Purchased it primeraly to transfer my home movies onto DVD and it works GREAT! I had the same problem with the static as an earlier reviewer, copy protected error, but I simply stopped during the static and restarted when the movie picked up again, this was caused by the camera being shut off incorrectly. It made for a lot of chapters sometimes but isnt the DVDs fault.
I started with DVD+RW but couldn't get them to play in my other DVDs, even after finalizing. I switched to DVD-R and they worked great in other DVD players, which allowed me to dub DVD to DVD to make copies for family. This did not however repeat the chapters on the disc and the AUTO chapter I cant figure out either, its turned on but doesn't work. So I ended up with 2 hour DVDs with no chapters to skip to. The only way I figured out to make them were stopping and starting the recording.
Recorded great from my TV (actually my Satellite Box) and from the DVR in the box, so I can record a show to DVR first and if I decide to keep it simply record it to a DVD. Of course it wont record in HD so I have to unplug it to watch HD again, but this is still no the DVDs fault. It does record HD DVR events but not in HD.
The play back quality is good, better from the VCR tapes than original but not as good as on TV since I get HD. Purchased or rented DVDs play excellent tho.
Overall I would recommend the Dvr610 as long as you have cable or satellite, why pay more for a tuner if you already have one?
Great Unit October 10, 2008
16 out of 16 found this review helpful
After a month of frustration with a similarly priced unit that was a major name brand, we returned that unit and bought this Toshiba model instead. The other unit was constantly making DVD's from old home VHS movies and the audio would be out of sync. We tried seven different movies and five different DVD recordable disc types. No matter what, when the DVDs came out, the people's mouths would move and the audio would come across two to three seconds later!
As stated, this unit is a huge improvement over the other previous unit we owned/returned. If you're looking to copy VHS to DVD on a budget, this is the model for you. The unit features a full set of outputs (HDMI/Component/S-Video/RCA) and has 1080p upconversion when watching DVDs.
The only downsides to this unit are the somewhat funky remote and the overall layout/complexity to the user manual, I feel that the manual could have been much easier to understand with a bit better organization and not so much crammed on every page.
Great DVD Recorder/Player April 30, 2008
13 out of 17 found this review helpful
I am really enjoying this product. It plays all my DVD's. It plays divx/xvid, and it's really no hassle to record your VHS to DVD. It's is an excellent DVD recorder for the price. I haven't tried recording live TV, but I don't have a cable box either.
End your searching now.... October 9, 2008

Like many others, I was searching for a simple way to convert VHS tapes of family home movies to DVD, considering that VCRs are almost completely unavailable, and soon these family tapes would be unplayable forever. I first purchase the Samsung model, and discovered that much to my dismay, the audio and video did not synchronise! Turns out that it was a Samsung problem, and they could do nothing about it. Returned it.
Then I thought I'd try this Toshiba model. Well, first off, THERE ARE NO AUDIO/VIDEO SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL!!!! If you follow the steps listed in the manual (and it's not hard to understand, don't know what everyone's complaining about), and if you record in "SP" mode for two hours, the end result will look and sound exactly like the source VHS.Terrific, Toshiba strikes again!
In regards to editing menus, if you've owned a Magnavox dvd recorder before this one, it will be like deja vu. They use the exact same program!
Really, this is the vhs/dvd recorder to buy. It will not disappoint you!
