Customer Review: Adequate basic recorder
I was looking for a second entry-level -R/RW recorder, having already got a Funai 2737 (which does the job fine). Decided to try the Toshiba as it had the benefit of Chase Play. In actual fact, this Toshiba seems to be the same underlying chassis as the Funai, with a different (somewhat more attractive) fascia. All rear ports and the user interface are all identical. The only difference is the addition of chase play. If you are drawn to this machine because of this feature then beware. Chase play can only be used when recording in quality setting of long play, or lower. This is tolerable on a small screen TV, but the quality when viewed on a large screen is barely acceptable, more or less making chase play a feature you will never use anyway. Apart from that, the unit looks and works fine, however, it might be worth considering the Funai and saving yourself ?25.
Customer Review: Not a bad machine, just too noisy
This machine has some very good points, but its too noisy to be used in a living room. Ours was RMAed. On the plus side: - Discs are initalised quickly, you can be recording on DVD-R within 20 secs. - The menu system is clear and easy to use - The DVD playing machanism is very quiet, you can’t hear the disc spinning at all - The DVD-R disc recorded played perfectly in Pioneer DVD (Dv464), Argos in Car DVD and PC. - It can play CDs of Jpegs. However the downsides out weight these good features: - Its very noisy, there is case fan at the back, that is always on when the recorder is. Watching Planet Earth with the DVD recording is, unconfortable, there is a constant whiring. Its 3 or 4 times noisyer than my AV reciever and I thought that was noisy! - remote control is “boxy” and square, hence unconfortable in the hand. - DVD-R take a LONG time to finalise, over 20 Mins. - It cannot play DVD-R discs of photo JPEGs burnt on my PC, that my Pioneer DVD player plays fine. Hence only 3 stars I’m afraid ….

Customer Review: Dissappointed
Had the unit for a few weeks now, have found it OK as far as recording to HDD, but thats only if I’m not watching anything else at the same time! As it interferes with the TV station that I’m watching. It is very slow at start-up, seems like ages before I can do anything! and the drive is a little noisy. I live in an area where there is very poor digital signal, so dont have alot of channels to view via the set, no ITV or CH4, and sometimes no BBC!… hope that will change in the future. In the meantime I have to record via the satelite, which defeats its object really!
Customer Review: Dissapointing
Sorry, but I have to go against the flow here. I found this machine both difficult to use and unreliable. So much so that I had to take advantage of Amazon’s excellent return policy. I now have a sony RDRHXD560S which I find simnplicity itself to use and excellent quality.

Customer Review: Love It!!
This for me is as close to getting Sky+ as I can get without having to shell out for one of Mr Murdoch’s whizzy boxes! I’m impressed with the Guide+, but I’ve noticed that if a programme is shown at a different time the following week the guide doesn’t follow suit. However, the fact that I can get it to change channels on Sky is a big bonus, I can now record what I like on whichever channel I like without using Sky’s EPG. OK, the Guide+ doesn’t list all channels on Sky, but for me the key ones are there, and you can manually enter channel numbers anyway. The 160GB HDD is more than enough space, I’ve been recording programmes left right and centre, and hooking it up to a VCR to transfer material from VHS to HDD is easy peasy. The picture quality is fine, I use SP for programmes to watch at a later date, and the editing functions are great.
Customer Review: Fantastic machine changes the way you watch tv
The previous reviews seem concerned about the lack of network capability to transfer mp3 files from a PC. I think this entirely misses the point. The Pioneer records TV at great quality and you can edit the recording (with ease) to remove adverts etc before saving to DVD-R if you so wish. But the best thing is that the machine comes with Guide+ from which you can schedule timed recordings. These recordings can be made using the internal tuner or from external decoders such as SKY satellite box or Freeview boxes. Up to 3 of these can be connected and an infared cable changes channel on the decoders when required. This is the fantastic bit. You choose which channels appear in Guide+ and tell which decoder they can be found on. I couldn't find another box that was capable of doing all this. And it is all easy to do, I didn't have to refer to the pretty comprehensive manual at all. And yes you can store your music collection on it too if you want to. When you consider that all the other MP3 music servers that I have seen cost over £600 it's not bad to have this thrown in on a video device that shouldn't cost you more than £330. So the music side is not so comprehensive as a full music server but they cost over double and they don't do video. So if you want to record programmes from SKY and don't want a monthly subscription to SKY+ then this does what you need and more. It's almost like SKY++
