    Misleading features3
    First the good news: quiet in operation; good quality reproduction at LP speed (4 hours can be saved to DVD-R); attractive; RGB output.
    Minor bad news: cannot splice two programmes together; editing commands slow to respond; difficult to load MP3 files onto HDD.
    However, it has a major fault: several features such as automatic chaptering, watching a programme currently recording, or watching one previously recorded programme while recording another -- will not work during timer recordings. As most recordings are based on the timer, this is such a significant failing (not mentioned in the promotional information) that in essence these features are unavailable. I am returning it to Amazon.

    THE CORRECT MULTIREGION HACK IS...5
    Amazon list an incorrect multiregion hack for this machine. The correct way I have discovered after trial and error is:

    1.Machine powered on, no disc in tray

    2.Press 0 five times at approx 1 second intervals

    3.Press the "REPEAT" button (NOT the "repeat a-b")

    4.Enter the following sequence - 5,7,5,3,8,9

    [2 flashes on screen when you press 8 - pressing 9 makes this multiregion].

    5. Now open and close the disc tray TWICE.

    6. Power the machine on & off and it is now multiregion.

    Enjoy!
