Won't play home burned DVD's.......2005-11-18

I have a new Panasonic DMR-ES10 DVD burner at home. This thing wouldn't play anything I burned in it. I tried +R and -R formats. You'd better plan on buying lots of DVD's for this one.

Last week 4 stars this week 2.......2005-10-18

last week when I bought this at a local retailer for way less than on the internet I was thrilled cause it was cool. Now that I have played a few movies I know why it is cheap(I think) it has the older style read laser which does try very hard to read dvd-r disks however, sometimes it just can't. Out of the 5 movies I have tried to watch 3 of which were store bought it played only one all the way through. Superman. It would not even recognize Highlander the ultimate edition. The ones I tried that were on dvd-r would get about 10 min in and you would think it had paused but then after 2-3 min the movie would start again. I tried all these disks out in another dvd and they played fine. so watch what you buy. Make sure you can take it back. Cause that's where I am going today. ( but I could have gotten a dud you never know):0)

Good overall, car power adapter weak.......2005-04-26

I purchased this DVD player mainly for use in the car on a long trip with a toddler. I like the tablet style and the bag mounts to the back of a headrest nicely. Overall picture and sound quality are very good for a portable player. Works great with the battery or the ac power cord inside. Barely works AT ALL with the cheap car power adaptor included with the player. Takes many attempts to get it to power the player, a real pain with a squirmy kid in the backseat. I was able to attach the battery, invert the player and invert the picture using the "mode" button for a couple hours, and it fit in the car headrest bag if I didn't fasten the top. Solution: go to Radio shack and get a decent "adaptaplug" and extension cord. Cost about $20, now it works with no problems. Easier for me than messing the warranty hassle from RCA. Overall good, if you don't mind buying an extra car plug.

Looks great in the picture, wait until you get it!.......2004-08-17

To start with, the battery is external. So that ultra compact form factor just got 25% bigger as you must screw the battery pack to the bottom of the unit (it is not shown in the picture). Then, that nice case that lets you attach it to a headrest, well, it fits great without the battery, but with the battery on there is no way to fit it (believe me, I tried). There is a nice built in "stand", it is designed to only be effective when the battery is not installed. The screen quality and external sounds are a bit worse then other units, though not horrible (especially as most of us will use the unit with headphones). Overall this unit was a total disappointment; I rarely write reviews, but I figured I would write something to save people the hassle or a return, I know I wish someone had done that for me.

Transcontinental flights are much better now........2004-08-05

I bought this little player for air travel.
Originally, I was looking at the fold open style until I saw this one. The price was right, so I took the chance.

Great player!
Picture quality is excellent for the size.
No 'fold open' hinges or latches to wear out.
I especially like the design of setting it up like a picture frame stand on the airplane serving tray in front of me.
Battery life so far has been 3:30 to 3:50 which is enough to get through "Return of the King".

The "back of seat" bag (included) looks like it would be quite nice to use in the van. We have a factory DVD player, but now have the option of letting some of the kids watch a DVD while others play N64...with headphones all around.

In short, I am pleased with the quality/value of the player.

Great Microphone.......2005-11-29

My main purpose for this microphone is to record the high school marching band, so my input is based on that purpose. I have found the sound quality to be superior to both the internal microphones of my camcorder and the Canon DM-50 I have. The mounting hardware included with the AT822 includes a hot-shoe mount, but it is a solid mount which picked up significant noise from the vibration of the camera transport motor. If you plan to mount this mic to a camera, you'll need an isolation mount.
I also found that this mic is not as good as the DM-50 at picking up sound from a distance. With the DM-50 I can record the marching band from the judging stand and get excellent results through the entire competition zone. The AT822, is much less directional and the band must be much closer to get a good recording level. When they are close, however, the sound is far superior with much better definition especially in the low frequencies.
Concert season is coming up and I'm sure this mic is going to be fantastic for recording in the concert hall. On the street for parades, I haven't figured out how to make it work well yet.

Portable and wonderful.......2005-05-04

Having had bad experiences with other mics, I finally ponied up the money for the AT822--and am I ever glad I did. As a trombonist, I've found that recording my instrument in the varied environments I play in--my home, outdoors, concert hall, dance hall--is a difficult proposition. I'm interested in the way I sound to listeners, but most mics are meant to mic an instrument into a PA system, not record the ambience of a room. Outside of expensive concert-hall mics in complex arrangements requiring multiple mics and power, there just aren't too many options for the individual wanting good sound and not-a-lot-of equipment. The AT822 solves this problem for me, and solves it well.

Using an MD Recorder, mic stand, and the AT822, I'm able to mic all my venues and I'm rewarded with excellent recordings--recordings that satisfy everyone who receives a CD. Recording our swing band, the extreme volume that can result of a large ensemble and small room make the roll-off feature a bonus; the recordings come out undistorted even when the record levels go a little higher than I anticipated, and the roll-off isn't as discernable on the final product as with some mics. In the concert hall, I have placed the AT822 in the balcony with no roll-off and have found the recording to be spotless--no hum or weirdness from the electronics, and a final product with genuine spatial feel. I've recorded a trombone choir in a semicircular arrangement (around the center of a church) and been happy with the sound of the instruments beside and slightly behind the mic as well as those within the mics front field-of-view. Even recording my home practices, I'm rewarded with a recording that accurately reflects my sound. Indeed, the AT822 is a microphone for all venues.

The AT822 is sensitive enough to record the drop of a violin bow across an E-string at 100 feet away, but rugged enough to handle 5-feet from a trombonist at fortissimo levels. I'm extremely pleased wtih the AT822. It offers a portable, self-powered solution for the amateur musician at a reasonable price. I wholeheartedly endorse this product, and recommend that others with similar needs for a microphone consider its purchase.

An excellent concert recording microphone.......2004-12-05

I use this, along with a home-built preamp and a Sony MiniDisc deck, to tape live concerts of my band and others. It does a very good job. The microphone has low self noise, a good stereo image, and excellent frequency response. Since it's single point stereo, it's easy to set up.
