Many instructions, immediately after the purchase, go into the trash along with the box, which is a mistake. We know from our users’ experience that most of people do not really attach importance to these manuals. All in all, to me, it was well worth the $278.The Monster Cable DVD Player / Recorder and other products you use every day were certainly offered in the manual set. The timer functions are extremely flexible for allowing recording from different inputs, etc. Besides, with audio/video inputs on the front and back, use your VCR's tuner, etc if you really think you need to. As others have mentioned, the tuner isn't the best, but if you have a good clean signal, the recordings seem fine to me. I have had no more lockups, no audio dropout, etc.

#Wal mart dvd player and recorder upgrade

When the firmware upgrade was finally posted to the ILO website, I downloaded it, burned it to a CD, put the CD in the ILO DVDRHD04 and let it update. I was upset, but I still thought it was a good deal since the next available type recorder was several hundred dollars more. Yeah, it had some dio dropping out, it would occasionally lock up during fast forwarding, during defrag, etc.

A couple of weeks later the hard drive version was in.I went for it too. I got the ILO Dvdr04 (dvd burn only) unit about 2 months ago at my local Wal Mart (they didn't have the hard drive one at the time). I guess you need to spend $499 or more for a nice stand alone recorder. There is some pretty nice software out there to make your computer a PVR. Or put in a tuner card into the computer so it can tune the channels.

#Wal mart dvd player and recorder install

I now plan to build a computer and place it near the main TV and install some kind of MPEG encorder in it to record with. (Sony, Pioneer, Panasonic etc.) will come down in price over the next few months. I think the price of other table top units. I though something by a large company like Lite-On would be somewhat ok. I have been successful in editing space out of some recorded TV segments.īut it has crashed on my at least eight times in four days of use. I knew some of features would be not up to snuf.

I am taking my unit (Ilo DVDRH04) back as well. Quality looks the same recording on HD or DVD. If I need to record something nice, I will need to plug in the old VCR with its stereo tuner and feed it in to the recorder via the back side jacks.

#Wal mart dvd player and recorder update

There is a firmware update that I have not yet installed. The DVD drive is a Lite-On DDW-451S (a 4X DVD write speed drive.) The DVDRHD04's hard drive is a Seagate ST3800012ACE.

My computer reads everything the unit wrote. (HQ, SP, EP and SLP) which equate to 1,2,4,6 hours of recording time on the DVD or 16,32,64,96 hours on the hard drive. (I wanted to make some titles etc for a recorded movie.) The recorders output discs have a VIDEO_TS subdirectory and a VIDEO_RM subdirectory. Seems like it can only copy in files that it wrote. (this was stuff I placed on a DVD+R disc that has no copy protection from my computer.) The recorder just says swap the disc. I could not copy some material from a normal DVD to the units hard drive. The front panel ilink (IEEE 1394) port is input only like the other unit. It's tuner is mono only like the other unit. Audio drops out for 1/8 seconds every 10 minutes or so. Recorded a few TV shows on the hard drive and played them back. Some hum but only about 20% of what it was on the DVDR04 unit. I also compaired it to my TV's tuner and my old VCR's tuner. (Picture carrier with the sound.) I tired two units to make sure I did not just have a bad unit. I found the tuner on the DVDR04 had lots of hum in the audio. I just took back my Ilo DVDR04 and picked up the Ilo DVDRHD04.
