Panasonic DMR-EZ48VP-K 1080p Upconverting VHS DVD Recorder with Built In Tuner (2012 Model)

As usual, Panasonic has a great machine in this one. Earlier, I bought the EZ38VK (no tuner) and am very pleased with it also. This is the very same machine but with a tuner that pulls in more digital channels, and more stable too, than I could get with my analog to digital converter. Regardless of what negative comments have been made elsewhere, I have had no problems with it whatsoever. No HDMI input??? I know of no other recorders that have it either which is to prevent possible copyright infringements. However, using the other inputs produces a crystal clear picture anyhow, so why get out of shape over it. The HDMI output works perfectly well because I hooked it to my HD TV and tried it. I have copied many old home movies (VCR Tapes) and it does a wonderful job. I have found that it will do everything that I want it to do and more. My only suggestion is to read the manual, step through the procedure for whatever you are doing, and you will realize just how easy it is to operate and get great results. If I had one recommendation, it would be to try to organize the manual a little better. - Customer Reviews

Product Description Panasonic DMR-EZ48VP-K 1080p Upconverting VHS DVD Recorder with Built In Tuner (2012 Model)  1080p Up-Conversion By interpolating video data using proprietary algorithms, SD format data is up-converted to 1080 x 1920p HD format video data. This conversion increases the richness of the original data by almost six fold, producing the highest possible image quality when viewing content on a large-screen HDTV. Digital Tuner Capable The high-performance hybrid digital tuner is capable of receiving both digital and analog broadcasts. And even when digital signals drop out because of interference with direct signal access, which makes the picture either disappear or become filled with block noise, the Digital Tuner still produces a beautiful picture. Easy Operation with VIERALink™ Connect your Panasonic DVD recorder to your VIERA flat-panel HDTV via an HDMI cable, and the TV channel setting information is automatically downloaded to the recorder. Once the Auto Preset Download is complete, the DVD recorder will keep whichever TV channel you're watching as its receiving channel. This means you can record the program you're watching by just pressing the Record button on the VIERA remote. With VIERALink™, you don't have to worry about setting the recorder to the right channel every time you want to record something. Expansion of Usages The Panasonic DMR-EZ48VK DVD recorder is equipped with an SD Memory Card slot and USB terminal, which makes it easy to view photos from your digital camera. Just slip the SD card into the slot or use the cable to connect the camera to the USB terminal, and you're ready to enjoy a spectacular big-screen slideshow with family and friends. You can even listen to music recorded onto a USB device while viewing your photos. Universal Design All of our DVD recorder models are designed in compliance with Panasonic's Universal Design principles. Frequently used buttons (Power, Open/Close) are located at the top of the main unit to make them easier to see when the unit is placed in a rack and you need to look down when operating it. Both the remote control and graphical user interface (GUI) were designed for easy use by everyone, based on the results of a Panasonic survey.
