Philips misses again in reliability
Strengths: The hard drive recording offers convenience for the quick recording sessions needed (can't find a disk, in a hurry). Also provides a variable quality compression for timer recordings.
Weaknesses: Reliability is a problem, this one experiences skipping, or intermittent play.
Summary: As a replacement for another Philips DVD-R I returned under warranty, this one also experiences skipping, even after a return trip to the factory, and cleanings. The Hard Drive recording feature was interesting until it would no longer defragment (a trip to the factory for that repair too). The DVD recording via the I-Link (IEEE, P-1394, Fire Wire) did not record and display any DV tape timestamp via the Closed Caption (Subtitle -1) or any other means.
WARNING:: Do NOT buy this product due to reliability issues.
