if so, a panasonic set top recorder could be the best
option. Digital Dailies is something this box can do
easily. http://www.panasonic.com -
agreed to what jason said.
it’s my opinion that the newer dvd players themselves
have been made better at reading DVD recordable, that has
made things more compatible rather than the recordable media
itself. It could very well be both. 🙂 -
Your welcome Brad. 🙂
I would avoid the philips brand recorders.
I’ve heard nothing but stories of dissapointment
as far as reliability goes. Someone went through
3 units before they finally chose another brand.
Another person sent his unit in for repairs
3 different times and all 3 times it had the
same or a new problem.I have dubbed some discs made by the philips recorders
and I noticed quite a bit of compression “mosquito noise.”I don’t work for panasonic, but I always recommend them
as my unit has lasted many years and never caused me any grief. -
I’d like to read that as well.
I’ve heard Java is implemented.

I know what you mean.
Check out the newer panasonic models to find out.
I know at least one of them does.
A client I do dubs for brought me a disc yesterday
that had no menu and I was shocked because I knew
he had made it on his panasonic recorder.He said it was one of the options in the dvd recorder
but he had encoded to the internal hard disc first.He wasn’t sure if it would do no menu’s direct to disc
but he thought it would. -
That was pure excellence.
are you a David Lynch Fan? He’d appreciate that piece.
You’ve inspired me to get off my can and do something.

Forgot to add, this particular model has time base correction
but only on the composite input signal. I’ve had many
unstable vhs and hi8 tapes play rock solid through it. -
That is truly a wise move. I’ve earned my company a significant
amount of extra income each year by offering services to these “consumer” clientel.I’ve used the same recorder since late 2002 with amazing success in
regards to picture quality and reliability.The Panasonic DMR-E30 is what I’ve been using.
I have over 1,000 hours on the laser diode and it’s still
cranking discs out on a daily basis. Amazing.It does basic text menu’s and automates chapter markers every 5.5 minutes.
This cannot be customized unless you record to DVD-RAM, rip/demux the content then re-author it. But that shouldn’t be a problem as you can charge more. -
Look into Sony Brands.
I own one that has 10ms response, true blacks thanks to a double
back light and a 5-year no questions asked return policy if
ANYTHING goes wrong in that 5 years. Dead Pixels…etc…I got that 5-year warranty through fry’s/outpost.com
be prepared to spend around 600-700 for a good 19″ monitor.
anything cheaper will likely have dead pixels out of the box
or later on and will also probably have a slow response and lack
of crisp picture. -
Ritek and Verbatim are up there with Maxell. 🙂
