Solves my time shift needs much more easily than old VHS tape machines. It has many capabilities that I may never use. Programming is pretty intuitive and playback from HDD is excellent. Skipping or replay is also practical and has superior video/audio. Should have bought one of these years ago. Haven't tried other brands. Sadly, new ones are apparently no longer made.

This is my second Magnavox recorder. My older one had something happen to the hard drive and cannot be repaired. This particular unit has a very slight problem in the display (cuts off about 1/16" at the bottom for some weird reason) but it is only noticeable when displaying something like a station guide. I use this to record programs coming to me from my satellite dish. I really enjoy watching a recorded program and zipping through the commercials with a one touch button that you can program (e.g. 1 minute skip, 30 seconds skip etc.). There is also a "back" button that you can program for duration. For those special movies I want to record, I can program the recording speed so that the playback is almost like looking at the original broadcast. If I want, I can edit a recording (such as remove the first 2 minutes or the last minutes, remove any commercials) on the hard drive and then copy it to a DVD using the built in DVD recorder. I have been using this unit for quite some time and it has performed admirably. I love this older model Magnavox recorder.Read full review

I bought this to replace a polaroid recorder I had. It is easy to use and set up. The picture of recorded over the air programs is not any better than the polaroid I had that was 7 years older. Also another negative it that you can only record 1 program at a time so If you keep up on watching what you record the 500gig drive is over kill. Save the $ buy the 320gig or 160gig. I was hoping my polaroid would make it till playstation added a tuner so you could record over the air broadcasts on it but the PS4 is not gonna have that they advertise it does everything but it does a bunch of crap that I dont care about and is missing the 1 feature I want. so I bought this instead and would purchase it again. It is an average value for the price.
I have been a time shifter for years starting with VCR's. I progressed to the Phillips DVR's and now have the Magnavox. Funai has made improvements in the DVR. I would like to see a multiple tuner model in the future but I fear the market is not large enough. I receive my television only over the air so cable systems that offer DVR's will limit the growth of non controlled systems. The Magnavox has convinced me to upgrade from my original Phillips machines if they ever breakdown. Get these machines while you can.
We have now used the DVR for several weeks, and are very pleased with the quality of this machine. This is an updated version of the DVR that was fried when an electrical technician did some work on the same wiring circuit, not knowing the DVR was ON and set to do a timer recording. Fried the machine. So this replacement has been just great. In fact, my wife is now able to record at a higher resolution for 300 hours of recording! More than oodles for us. It has been a very good purchase.
