Magnavox MRV700R DVD Player/Recorder and VCR Combo

Product Description

This Magnavox MRV700VR DVD and Video Cassette Recorder records both DVD+RW/DVD+R and videotapes, but also plays prerecorded videotapes, DVDs and other Disc types. You can record TV programs, edit camcorder recordings, and quickly access your DVD recordings in the Index Picture Screen. You'll soon appreciate the digital picture and sound quality of DVD, DVD+RW, and DVD+R, which will exceed the quality you have had with videotapes.

Amazon.com Product Description

The MRV700R from Magnavox combines a full-featured DVD player with the quality and convenience of both DVD+R/+RW and VHS (NTSC, PAL, SECAM) recording and playback. Great for small-scale entertainment systems and back-room or bedroom service, the MRV700R lets you archive your home movies and edit favorite scenes to share with loved ones: use recordable DVD+R and rerecordable DVD+RW media for compiling home-video highlights or for storing TV programs, then mail them to loved ones.

You can also time-shift your TV viewing, using the unit's programmable timer to schedule programs to record on either VHS tape or DVD, depending on your priorities. The MRV700R stores up to 6 hours of audio and video on a single-sided recordable DVD at varying quality levels, from sub-VHS quality to VHS/S-VHS quality, DVD quality, and full DV quality.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the MRV700R stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs during playback. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

The MRV700R also performs 3:2 pulldown detection. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

The unit's front panel sports a set of inputs for your temporary or spontaneous A/V connections. A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

Died Within 6 Months!.......2006-11-29

I used ours to record occasional shows and play DVDs. All told, we probably used it about 4-5 times a week -- very little for a DVD/VCR. Once we installed it, we never moved the thing, so it was virtually undisturbed. Yet the VCR playback heads went kaput after only 6 months of use.

This Machine Works For Me :D.......2006-07-08

Hi! I am reading these reviews and laughing at how frustrated everyone is. READ the manual, yes. PUSH a button, yes. This deck has been a god-sent for me as I am transferring all of my undergraduate work to digital media. The extra fun features are neat if you're a couch potato. Initial setup was nothing at all, Pro Scan automatically scanned every catv channel and pretty much did everything on its own. If you KNOW what you WANT, the challenges of learning new electronics give great benefits. :-)

Not Great.......2006-04-18

an irritating constant humming noise when unit is off

clock always fast

takes too long to start up, miss out on first minutes of recording a show "on demand"

sometimes dvd menu freezes up so i either have to unplug unit
or wait until the off button eventually kicks in and the unit shuts off and start all over.

however, the playing/rewinding modes for dvds and vhs are good

Not worth the time, energy or money.......2006-03-31

This is the SECOND time I'm packing this thing back up to return in the last 30 days. When we initally bought this, we came home & after about 2 hours of trying to figure out the hookup and installation, I contacted Magnaxox only to find out I had a "defective" player. The VHS wasn't working (I could hear sound, but picture was only black & white wavy lines) and the DVD would not play at all (No disc message). It also made a very loud noise when a DVD was inserted. SO... we drive back down to the store we purchased it, which is 45 minutes away (we live in a rural area), and exchanged it for another one. I get home, hook it up (quicker this time), try a VHS tape. It was working, so I was optimistic...tried the DVD player... YES, it works. I was very relieved and put away the box and paperwork, feeling very happy that it was just a defective player the first time. Well.... that feeling was pretty short lived. Three weeks after use, I went to put a DVD in & started getting the message "No Disc". Uh-oh... I tried several others, just in case it was the DVD. Nope-same message. I put a VHS tape in to see if that was working alright. It began playing but within 3-4 minutes, it stopped. When I tried to eject the tape, it would not eject. When I tried to open the DVD player to remove the DVD, it would not open. Oh joy.. I unplugged it, and was going to try again, but at that point the player would not even turn on. At all. So... I unplugged it for the evening with intentions of returning it immediately. My husband plugged it in the next day and it came on & he was able to remove our movies (thankfully). The DVD is still not working, the VHS works but now there is this mysterious "snow" on the television whenever we turn this on. Hmmmm..... I believe this player is a dud. I am returning it this weekend and am buying another brand. This DVD/VCR Recorder combo has created a good deal of stress for me and probably raised my blood pressure as well:) Seriously though, I would not recommend this one. I would give it zero stars, if that were an option :)

Not worth your time.......2006-01-19

I have 3 complaints about this machine: No fast forward feature for the DVD player, takes too long to start up, the clock always runs fast.

Our biggest complaint is that there is no fast forward feature for the DVD player. You are allowed to skip chapters, but once in a chapter you can not fast forward or rewind. This is very annoying.

Our second complaint is that it takes forever to initially start up. It is so slow! You can't just turn it on and record, you have to let the maching boot itself up first. And it is noisy.

Our last complaint is that regardless of how many times you reset the clock, it will always run fast. We've given up on it at this point.

I agree with the other review that says the machine is somewhat difficult to run. You definately have to read the manual through to figure it out.

This machine will play both DVD's and Tapes, but it is more hassel then it it worth. I wish I would have researched this before I bought it, it was an impulse buy.

My First Denon and my LAST!.......2006-10-12

Over the years (50) I have owned many electronic devices (ONKYO, Panasonic, Sony, JVC, ICOM, Yaesu, Kenwood, you name it) and most have served me will. My Denon DVD1720 lasted about 4 months, then would lock up. I thought I was buying the best, especially since I paid a premium for the Denon line. I was wrong. My other three Players (Two JVC and a Panasonic) are still going strong. I sent it in two week ago to a service center only 40 miles from my home and have not heard from them. This was my FIRST Denon product and my LAST.

DENON DVD1720.......2006-06-20

Pros:

-VERY responsive
-Easy to use
-Simple setup

Cons:

-Bad remote layout
-Confusing on/off light
-No time display

I really like this DVD player, but am not impressed by the following. The remote layout is very strange compared to other brands. The on/off light on the unit is either red or green at all times making the home theater looking like fireworks. There is no time display on the unit.

Impressive!!!.......2006-05-13

This dvd player is excellent. I bought it for $129 at J and R in New York City and I could not be happier. I had a previous JVC dvd player which I gave to my son. I bought the JVC two years ago for $79, and it gave me quite good service for those two years. The only problems I had with it was that it once frozed on me when I attempted to play a dvd, and the picture sometimes showed artifacts on some dvds. These artifacts were minor, but they were present in some instances.
I decided to buy this Denon because the company is well known for making quality and sometimes quite expensive audio components. However, as I mentioned previously, I payed only $129 for this player. Some people might think this is too much, especially when one can buy dvd players at your popular electronic stores for less than $70. However, these people should be mindful of what they buy because you do get what you pay for!!! I also originally thought that a few differences in dollars in the cost of dvd players would not make a difference in terms of the quality of the products. Boy was I wrong!!!This Denon dvd player is far superior to any other dvd I have ever owned. It is superior to my previous JVC player in terms of both picture and sound!! The picture is clear and makes it possible to see some details which were not present using the JVC. The most impressive quality of this dvd player is the sound. The sound is much much better than the JVC in terms of frequency response, clarity, and just the ability to enjoy the full spectrum of the music.
I would definately recommend this player to all those who are looking for a quality dvd player which is inexpensive, and shows beautiful videos with a rich sound.

Sleek and seamless integration.......2005-10-02

Our trusty Toshiba DVD player died after 5 years of intense use, and we chose the Denon 1720DVD to add to our already existing Denon sound system. We couldn't have made a better choice. It was a snap setting it up, programming the existing remotes, and putting it all together. The video quality is superb, and the sound is even better! We show movies on a large-screen format Toshiba, and the picture quality is nothing less than high-definition.

If you're looking for a superbly priced, reliable, high-quality machine, look no further!
