Review on Black Magnavox MDR537H/F7 HDD/DVD Recorder for Enhanced SEO by Loren Schmidt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Helped me get rid of the cable

Last month my cable bill went up another $30 a month so I decided to get rid of it and go back to using an antenna. I knew I would miss the DVR. I was so used to recording everything to watch when it fit my schedule and being able to pause and rewind the live stream that I wasn't sure I could get used to not having those options . This Magnavox product solved that problem. It can only record one program at a time and it has to be on the channel being recorded, but it has an antenna output that sends the signal to another device so you can watch a different channel. Program while recording (if the other device has its own tuner). It can also play a previously recorded program while recording. It doesn't use any guide based system to schedule the recording, so you need to set up the recording by entering all the details like date/day, channel, start and end time etc. as well as the program name (Optional). For one-off broadcasts set the date, for recurring broadcasts select the day, ie Monday and time, and the recording will be at that time every Monday. Of course, if you want to start recording right away, you can just press the record button. It has several handy features for managing recorded programs, such as: B. the ability to subdivide a recorded program, called a title, into several titles. maintains several hours of cache even with multiple channel changes. There are many other features too many to list here and some I haven't even tried yet, like burning to DVD. Overall I am very satisfied with this product. In fact, I can buy a second one to record two programs at the same time.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • Gotcha
