Unfortunately, it has come to the point that I must unplug the power cord each time I want to time shift, otherwise the unit freezes up-locks up and won\'t record. We have missed a lot of shows we planned on seeing later because of this flaw. Panasonic is totally uncommitted in helping us with this problem. I have read from others that Panasonic has terrible customer service, now I know that\'s true.</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">Orchidgirl70</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">09-Mar-09</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Can record onto dvd or vcr, watch both dvds and tapes, watch one program while recording another.</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>I have been unable to set up the Viera link properly, although I\'ve tried a couple of times.</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I think it\'s a great dvd recorder / vhs recorder.

Am I the only person left who timeshifts with the VCR? I do it every day. A DVD-RW works too, (I\'m using that now) but it takes five clicks thru three menus to format a disk; which you have to do before recording. Much less convenient than VCR.<br />I fear I\'ll have to return the product (are you listening Best Buy?)</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">mighty18</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">27-Oct-08</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Picture Quality; Build Quality; 1080P Up Conversion; Lots of Inputs; Large Clock Display; User Friendly</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>Size (slightly bigger than the Sony, Samsung, and LG but smaller than a Toshiba).</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I had Sony\'s comparable RDR-VXD655 for a week before comparing the DMR-EZ48VK. Immediately, I noticed the quality of the build, which is solid and not flimsy as with the Sony, Samsung, or LG units. <br /> - <br /> To schedule a recording is very easy. Just press \"Schedule\" on the remote control and select channel, time, frequency (daily, weekly, M-F, etc.), and press OK. <br /> - <br /> I only wish the inputs on the front panel were \'hidden\', as with the Sony, which gives it a clean look and prevent dust build-up. <br /> - <br /> I wonder why the manufacturers don\'t make DVD recorders with an input that\'s of higher quality than \"S-Video\"??? </div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">sandjchan</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">30-Sep-08</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>clarity of video from hdmi upconversion on dvd playback; ease of converting vhs tapes onto dvd</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>takes a few seconds to turn on, so if you need to record something immediately(like a funny commercial),you might miss a small segment; this is not an issue if you have Viera Link - a Panasonic TV</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>this is the exact machine as the EZ485VK, except this one doesn\'t come with an HDMI cable;  their instruction manuals are one and the same;  both are easy to operate, and the recorded images are very clear on dvd, fairly clear on vhs; would definitely recommend the unit to anyone looking to upconvert dvd movies, and looking for a vhs player to play or record videotapes</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">reviewsatpg</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">04-Jul-08</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>VCR and DVD combo.
