Panasonic DMR-E75V


Recently I bought a Panasonic DMR-E75V DVD/VHD Recorder Combo.
The main features include:
One-touch 2-way Transfer (DVD <-> VHS)
2 Program Parallel Recording with Twin Tuners
16-hour Recording onto DVD-RAM (9.4GB Double Sided Disc, EP mode
Timslip viewing and simultaneous view and record separate channels

I have already copied a number of old videos to DVD. The kids are enjoying watching things they haven't seen for a couple of years since our old VHS player packed it in.

It was a little complicated to set up, and involved some bemused head shaking while dangling multiple cables behind the big TV.
I actually rang the (very helpful) Panasonic customer service centre (not in defeat) to check that I had it right and after explaining my setup the chap said that I had done it the best possible way.
