One additional aspect that I absolutely relate to is the benefit of only having ONE remote control that does everything, particularly where kids and spouse are concerned. So you set the TV up with just the one input pre-selected for this device and all you have to control on the TV is the volume - everything else is done in this one box. Heaven, even if there are some (relatively insignificant in proportion) drawbacks!

Secondly, a product like this is (or should be) DEAD IN THE WATER in the UK if it doesn't have Freeview (DVB-T) support. So far the only product of this type that I have seen with Freeview is the Panasonic DMREZ45 - the other manufacturers will undoubtedly be getting with the game over the next few months if they actually want to sell any of their products!]]>Sep 22nd 2006 6:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/
Doesn't look like JVC did much wrong here. I'd prefer it in black but that's me. Aside from that, VHS+DVD uprezzing, Divx playback, MP3, DVD recording, firewire jack. At $150 it would sell pretty good I'd think. But at $270, forget it.]]>Sep 22nd 2006 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/Sep 22nd 2006 12:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_8_mm_film]]>Sep 22nd 2006 9:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/Sep 22nd 2006 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/
I bought my daughter a Sony combo player last year. She had a lot of DVD and two or three VHS.

Personally, I'd love to see this JVC one in action. Hey, if I can get VHS and SVHS to look pretty darn good running s-video into my 50" Sony 720p LCD RP, I'd love to see what HDMI and 720p could give me . . . hmm, maybe not, heh, heh.]]>May 30th 2008 7:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/
Still, kind of nice it at least plays almost anything you can throw at it.]]>Sep 24th 2006 5:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/Sep 23rd 2006 4:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/Nov 1st 2006 9:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/Jan 1st 2007 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/jvcs-dr-mv7s-vcr-dvd-combo-recorder-promises-to-upscale-vhs/

Seems to work better with DVD-R than DVD+R, might be just my discs though. (using Memorex)]]>May 10th 2007 7:48PM
