Philips DVDR615 DVD Player

I bought this DVD recorder to replace the same model that had broken. This model allows you to edit the DVD recording before finalizing, BUT other DVD players do not recognize the editing, so other than adding chapters for skipping purposes, editing is pretty pointless. I bought this item because it was being offered in good condition from an excellent seller. I am very pleased with this replacement since I can now finalize the DVDs I had left to finish from the previous model.

It does a great job recording. The copy is much better than the other DVD recorders that I have. (Samsung 120, and LG RC 199H.The colors are even stronger. It also has two extra recording speeds that many other brands do not have. It has a 2 1/2 hours speed with DVD quality and a 3 hour speed with Super VHS quality.
My only complaint is that it has a lot of "bells and whistles" and is therefore, much more complicated to work than the other brands that I have.
You may need a manual!!!

I have owned this DVDR for a while. I have tried other brands and models but nothing has even come close to this model when it come to compatibility and recording. This is a great model and I would recommend it to anyone.

so far i like this model. i am not happy with the menus at all. they are confusing to say the least. while watching a dvd movie, it posts the chapters at the top left corner of your tv screen every time it comes to a new one, like chpater 2/50. its annoying and it does not seem to have any way to stop them.

I had been lokking in the stores for this product to give as a Christmas gift.
I either could not find the item in some stores at all, or the price was way too high, or the stores did not have the Philips brand. I have been buying Philips electronics for over ten years, so I trust the quality. I was extremely pleased at the price, and the one again, the quality and performance is unsurpassed.

I already had one, wanted another. The menu, etc., are intuitively easy to use; I love +R DVD's because I can add track markers where I want to, and not just at 5 or 10-minute intervals. Also, it is possible to record slightly longer than the specified time limits at each speed. The picture quality at 4 hour speed is noticeably better than with my Panasonic E55 -R machine. If you get one cheaply, this machine is a steal!

I decided to buy the Philips DVDR615 to record on it. I made a great purchase.
