Product Description
SYLVANIA ZV420SL8 DVD Recorder/VCR combination lets you copy VHS tapes to DVD and DVD to VHS tapes at the touch of a button. Record your favorite television shows from your STB and treasured home videos to either videocassette or DVD-R/RW discs. And with a Progressive Scan video output, you can be sure that you can enjoy them in clear, sharp, lifelike picture quality every time.

PROGRESSIVE SCAN:
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.

DVD-R/RW RECORDING:
Record your favorite television shows and treasured home videos to either videocassette or DVD-R / DVD-RW discs.

PLAYABLE DISC:
This DVD player plays DVD Video, DVD-R/RW, video and audio CD, CD-R/RW, MP3, JPEG and Kodak Picture CD.

4 HEAD AND HI-FI STEREO SOUND:
The 4-head VCR's Hi-Fi stereo recording system offers excellent sound quality, with a high dynamic range, wide frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

A/V CABLE CONNECTIONS:
Inputs and outputs include front and rear stereo audio/video and an RF input/output for the VCR, and, for the DVD player, component-video, S-video, and composite-video outputs.

5 out of 5 stars Ooops! See what I don't know.   August 31, 2008
Cammie Hering (Portland, OR)
I returned this product because of how it seemed to interface with my system. I have since learned this is an industry wide change.


5 out of 5 stars This DUB's for you!   August 29, 2008

I wanted to get my old VHS home movies onto DVD before the tapes rotted away to nothing, so I purchased this Sylvania recorder. I've filled up 25 Verbatim 16x DVD-R's now, and so far I'm very satisfied with this unit. The only complaint I have is that it's kind of tricky to get the tracking adjusted satisfactorily. You have to play your VHS tape for a few minutes and work with the two tracking buttons on the front of the machine until you're sure all the static lines are gone. Then push rewind to go back to the start of the tape without pressing stop (if you do, the tracking will be messed up again). Then pause the tape and insert your DVD-R (DVD+R's work too, although the instruction manual doesn't mention them), choose the DVD record speed (the 120-minute SP mode provides good results) and press the DUBBING button. After the recording's done, you need to use the setup menu and finalize the disc so it can be played on a standard DVD player.

Thanks to the Sylvania ZV420SL8, my old videos are now preserved forever on discs. That alone makes this unit worth its weight in gold. Be forewarned, however, that it will NOT allow you to transfer licensed VHS movie tapes to DVD.
