Greetings all,
I recently purchased a Panasonic DMR-E20 dvd recorder. I thought that this was "the answer". I hope that the problems I am having are the exception, and not the rule.
1.) Regardless of the recording speed, occasionaly I will get digital freeze (blockiness / pixilization, whatever you want to call it) throughtout the video. The audio is fine.
2.) When finalizing a disc, the machine will actually shut off, ruining the disc before it is finalized (has happened twice out of ten attempts)
3.) The machine will NOT allow me to make a duplicate copy of a dvd or videotape that I own, with no macrovision present in the source (it's my damn wedding video!) The machine simply tells me that this source is unable to be recorded.
I did a good bit of research before I made this rather costly investment, & I thought I was on the right track. Does anyone have any advice (other than wait for the next generation of recorders ... I WILL NOT ACCEPT THAT!)
I will attempt to contact Panasonic's support personel in the next day or two. In the meantime ... HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING WRONG?
Thanks,
Adam
