Finaly giving up on this after nearly a year with intermittent faults.
It's always been compicated to use, and I agree with the above review that some obvious info is hard to find in the manual. It's also always been incredibly noisy whatever it does.
It doesn't like a dvd being paused for any significant length of time (ie. making a cuppa!); if you stop a dvd to do something else when you re-start it sounds terrible and often wont start again and you have to re-boot the whole machine.
It has just recently not been able to record from hdd to dvd (one of the features I bought it for), and now in the last few days it won't play any of the disks in a brand new dvd box set.
