The Panasonic DMR-EZ47V features an Accutune high-precision analog/digital tuner for recording and viewing digital broadcasts without a set top box. The built-in Digital Tuner also allows the user to record one digital broadcast program while watching a second program. Other features include 1080p up-conversion to accommodate the growing trend to 1080p displays, EZ-Sync HDAVI Control system for one-touch operation of Panasonic home theater components, super multi-format recording and playback capability, DivX playback and an SD Card slot for storing, viewing and copying JPEG formatted still photos. 1080p digital video up-conversion produces virtual HD images from standard-definition sources. The DMR-EZ47V also makes it very easy to record from DV camcorders via a DVI.

The Panasonic DMR-EZ47V is a dual deck DVD video recorder/VHS recorder, combining the features and benefits of the two technologies. One of the major uses of DVD recorders is the transfer of VHS tapes to the more durable, higher picture quality DVD format. With that in mind, Panasonic offers this dual deck unit, giving users the ability to easily dub their home movies and recorded VHS tapes onto either a DVD-RAM or DVD-R disc, and from a DVD disc back to a VHS tape. The DMR-EZ47V also includes one touch dubbing. The user also has the option of watching VHS tapes or DVDs on a space saving combination product.

Good Quality and Function

"[...] Setup with HDMI could be easy, but it is NOT... if you use a non-Panasonic - non-VieraLink - TV. VieraLink is turned on by default, and with a non-P, non-VL, TV you will get a U99 error code. Panasonic support(?) will tell you the unit is defective, but it's not. Use an RCA or component hookup, before using HDMI, to access HDMI setup and turn Off VieraLink, then you can plug in HDMI and enjoy the qualit..." Read Full Review »

"Many of the reviews I read, before I purchased this DVR, didn’t tell the whole story. How many times do you have to reset or reboot your DVR? Nearly once weekly, it stops responding to commands entered from its remote or from buttons on its face and so I have to reboot this DVR. Sometimes, that means actually having to unplug it from its power source.Sometimes, when chasing playback is engaged, it mangles the re..." Read Full Review »
