Nice visual but no audio playing from their recorded disks. Yes, I did finalize the disks. It's taking longer than expected to find all the little nits to get this machine to do what I wanted to do with it, record old tapes onto DVD. Overall, this is a pain in the butt. Don't lose the manual! Read, reread and then reread again. Remote - nuisance. Sometimes, a box has more features than 99% of the users are ever going to want to use. I would love to see the remotes before purchasing, it'd certainly let me know their users.
