Very happy with this purchase. Plays back all of our DVD and VHS collection. Records DVDs in high quality. HDMI will come in handy when we finally get a 1080p TV.

Here is the sequential list of failures I have experienced with my Toshiba DVR670KU since I put it in service Jan 2010. (1) In DVD recording mode, it recorded only the beginning and end of a program with the center missing. I stopped DVD recordings. (2) The auto clock reset function quit working. (3) When it reached the beginning of the tape in VCR rewind mode, it automatically started to play the tape forward. (4) About 90% of the time, a new channel number input was held only for about 2 to 3 seconds before it reverted back to the previous channel setting. (5) The manual clock set function also quit working, rendering programmed recording impossible.
This is one of the best DVD recorders still sold. The only unit I know of with an option to record in XP mode PCM for high quality audio to DVD, not to mention great video quality.

QAM Analog Tuner Sub Standard

Comments about Toshiba DVR670 DVD/VCR Combo:
I purchased this DVR670 to record qam channels from Cable TV. The ATSC tuner works great recording both vhs and dvd good on limited number of free channels. On the analog not so good the signal records 5 seconds and then off 5 seconds.

Best available DVD-recorder/VCR/Tuner
By RAS

Comments about Toshiba DVR670 DVD/VCR Combo:
Thoroughly compared this DVD recorder-VCR-tuner with 2 competitors: 1) Panasonic's DMREZ47V looks slick but can't record digital broadcast with VCR. Also: programming the DVD recorder is unreliable. However, Panasonic's digital tuner is the best of the 3: you can block individual unwanted decimal channels whereas with Toshiba / Philips you can only block the whole number, including all the decimals. Hopefully Toshiba & Philips will add that capability with next version. 2) Philips DVD recorder-VCR-tuner is identical to Toshiba's but the controls are scrambled - dowright maddening at times! Therefore, Toshiba's DVR670 DVD recorder / VCR / digital tuner is the best available of these 3 (I haven't tried either the LG or JVC). I'll be buying another one soon.

This DVD player works fine.I bought it as a sub for grandchildren to view dvds and vhs. However the recorder does not work to record DVDs from VHSs. I have had many problems trying to deal with this and have not been able to do it.

Bad
By Bizz
from Denver, CO
Comments about Toshiba DVR670 DVD/VCR Combo:
This unit is set up with a lot of appealing features which are useless if they don't work. I don't want to do anything fancy but watch movies and record games I miss due to work. Since the tuner won't scan channels higer than 22 I can't even get an opportunity to see if it'll record the upper channels. I have messed with this thing for almost 2 months know and don't know what direction to take. The owners manual is useless. This is most disappointed I've ever been with a piece of electronics.

not happy
By Sally
from Rochester MI
Comments about Toshiba DVR670 DVD/VCR Combo:
There is a long process to go through to get the TV playing. I have to enter an unlock code and set the TV to a different setting. Then I enter the channel on the Toshiba remote. The Toshiba remote has no volume control so I always have to use the two remotes. NOT happy about this process.
