"No problem hooking up. Does a nice job of recording from our satellite and copying movies from VHS to DVD. This is our first DVD recorder and the manual is easy to follow. A must-have for me is a time display (telling me how much time has elapsed on the tape or DVD) and this unit has it. I even like …"  Read Full Review »
