Tech Talk
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

4 out of 5 stars Aceptable por el precio   December 21, 2007
N. D. Morel (Latin America)
Hace unos dias compre este modelo aprovechando el excelente precio, y por supuesto luego de ver algunos "reviews". Es mi primer DVD recorder, por tanto, no tengo ninguna referencia. Pero en general, hace lo que quiero: grabar programas de la tv (el tuner funciona bien) y grabar el monton de mini DV tapes que tengo tomados con mi camara sony. Me parece excelente esta funcion, con la entrada DV. Mi unica queja ahora ahora es el control remoto, poco alcance y necesita que este direccionado exactamente hacia el sensor. Ademas, no siempre responde.



5 out of 5 stars Great DVD player/recorder   October 5, 2007
Melissa Levan (Schuylkill Haven, PA)
This was a replacement DVD player/rec. for us and wow it is great. It works exactly how it was promised.


4 out of 5 stars Does not record to DVD-R DVDRW - But a fine product!   September 23, 2007
J. Bogdon (USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this unit not too long ago and find it very reliable as far as playing the multitude of discs that it features. However, upon reviewing the manual many times, I have tried to understand why the Technical Reviewer states that it can record to DVD-R and DVD-RW discs when the manual plainly states this unit can only record to DVD+R & DVD+RW discs.
Aside from that, I have found this unit very attractive and reliable. The picture quality is very good and the functions are easy to handle.
The greatest feature about this Coby DVDR1300 Player/Recorder is that it has a built-in 5.1 channel tuner which can be hooked up to your TV set. Audio cables are necessary for the sound and included with this unit.
Overall, this unit which is reasonably priced is a sure bet for anyone looking for a notably fine product and a satisfactory performance.



4 out of 5 stars Coby DVD Recorder that works...   February 23, 2007
C. Smith
We had two other "inexpensive" dvd players that died recently and needed to replace them. This unit jumped out at me for three reasons, the ability to record to DVD, built-in TV tuner and the price. Setup was pretty simple and now the kids can watch their DVDs again. The recording quality of this unit is "ok". The unit has three different types of inputs: CABLE, RCA and S-Video, so it should work for most situtations. I gave the unit 4 stars, because it is not a high-priced or high-quality system and it met my low to medium quality device expectations.
