The only problem that I have had with it had to do with my not knowing hat tuner-free meant when I ordered it, consequently there is no place to screw the coax into the back. The clock, the timer and all the recording on the VCR does not work at all.This comes from being ignorant of all the changes in the machines.I guess that I will just have to keep bumbling through. The machine is working perfectly so far. It plays DVD's and Tapes perfectly but that is all that it does.
There is no problem. Wish I had chosen a different product. I thought I'd encounter more vhs material, but it's extinct every where.
Before you buy any of these JVC models you might want to surf the internet for reviews. Too bad as my unit looks good as new inside and out. At first, I could hold the door closed and the dvd would read. It wasn't long before the dvd door began giving me problems staying closed. It looks the same as this one. I have the DR-MV7 model. I only used the recorder a few times over the year. After a while, the dvd would not read at all and the door kept popping open.
JVC has certainly declined in quality--Maybe because they're now making products in Indonesia. Tried various remedies, but nothing worked. Poor reliability. After a year of not too frequent use, my JVC VCR/DVD was unusable--The video output was often distorted in some manner. Wasn't worth fixing.
They have a proven history of extremely poor build quality. However they all look very similar withonly slight cosmetic differences.Search on these item numbers and see for yourself:JVC SR-MV40US* Built Defective, I bought and returned three of these units (12/2007)* Faulty DVD Drive is a known inevitable problem on every unit (11/2007)* Worked well while it worked (10/2007)* Disk Error on most discs after 5 months of owning the unit (08/2007)* No luck with this (06/2007)* Problem unit (05/2007)JVC HRXVC27U (5 1-stars out of 8)* 1yr and 1/2 and it died (02/2005)* Worst home electronic device I've ever owned (03/2006)* Barely outlived the warranty (10/2005)* the J must stand for Junk (05/2005)JVC DRMV5S (8 1-stars out of 16)* Do Not Buy The JVC DRMV5S DVD.
it just froze (04/2006)* What a disapointment after only 2 years (03/2006)JVC HRXVC15S (1 1-star, 1 2-star out of 2 reviews)* Factory Defect.Look Elsewhere (09/2007)Here are some model numbers that WILL NOT come up on a search but CAN be accessed by working through "see all of my reviews"JVC DRMV1S (>>> FIFTY-TWO (03/2007)* Total Junk and they Know it.
(09.2007)* JVC DRMV5S is defective. (01/2006)* Died after two weeks (10/2005)A search on "Jvc Hi-fi Vcr/DVD Combo" search yields the following models:JVC HRXVC29S* I had the unit for under a year, and one day.
I recommend buyers look at the Amazon reviews for defunct JVC VHS/DVD dual deck products before they purchase any current dual deck model. JVC keeps rapidly changing model numbers, which makes this more difficult for the consumer to discover.
(12/2006)* There's got to be something better (03/2006)* JVC should be ashamed.
