Amazon.com Product Description
Samsung's DVD-VR330 provides the best of both worlds, with the ability to record home movies and TV programming to a wide variety of DVD discs while enabling you to continue playing your vast VHS library. Additionally, the 4-head VCR offers a full complement of standard recording and playback options as well as the ability to easily convert VHS tapes to DVD. A front-panel DV (FireWire IEEE 1394) input enables you to connect the family video camcorder and edit and record footage directly to a DVD disc--all via a single cable and without losing image quality. The EVQ (Enhanced Video Quality) feature provides sharper images and truer color reproduction for both movies and home videos. EVQ reduces pixel noise produced during digital signal processing, mitigates the cross color phenomenon occasionally produced by separation of Y C signal. p It offers a full menu of DVD recording options, including DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW as well as DVD-RAM discs--a very flexible format that allows you to re-record on the disc up to several thousand times. Additionally, it offers recording compatibility with DVD-/+R discs--enabling you to store up to 8.5 GB of video on these two-sided discs. p You can program recording via the timer, or choose easy one-touch recording (initiating playback at 30 minutes and adding 30 minutes with each additional press of the button, up to the available disc time or 240 minutes, whichever is sooner). Chapters are created when you record your favorite TV show or video clips from a camcorder onto a DVD disc. The chapters are automatically created, which eliminates wasted time searching the whole DVD to find the right spot. Up to 99 titles can be recorded onto one disc. With the simple and easy edit function menu, you can delete, copy, rename, and lock, among other things. You can also create a playlist and edit video in a specific sequence. p It offers the following connection options: ul liComposite video: 1 out liS-Video: 1 out liComponent video: 1 out liFirewire: 1 in liRF: 1 in, 1 out liAnalog audio: 2 in, 2 out liCoaxial digital audio: 1 out liOptical digital audio: 1 out /ul p bTech Talk/bbr iComponent video/i (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound. p bWhat's in the Box/bbr DVD/VCR combo, remote control (with batteries), printed operating instructions

 Unreliable DVD player and recorder October 6, 2008
koldflow (Colorado)
I think just at a year it stopped working entirely for the DVD playing/recording side. It gives a disc initialization error, it malfunctions when playing a DVD. This model is now only good for playing mp3 and music CDs and VHS tapes, neither function is what I bought this for. I got probably 5 DVD recordings before this function stopped working. br / br /This unit lasted less than a year with moderate use and I most likely will stay away from Samsung electronics from now on.
Poor Quality Unit September 13, 2008
Tazman (USA)
This unit rejects 2 out of every 3 disks. The record quality is poor. Do not buy. I am sorry I did. Their TVs are great, but whoever designed this deck should be fired!
 Samsung DVDR review July 26, 2008
T. Bailey (NJ)
br /Easy programming, clear recordings and a sharp picture through it's br /tuner. I already have this recorder and needed a second one and went br /out of my way to find it. I have not used the VCR side though.
The WORST Electronic Item I Have Ever Bought! July 20, 2008
Patty Duke Fan (yardley, pa USA)
I have just been reading up on a lot of the other customer reviews here and it's now at least I know it's not me! br / br /Like many others, mine worked for about a year (of course the time of the warranty) and then began not being able to read recordable DVDs. At first I thought the DVDs themselves might be faulty and even threw several out. After all, why would a major company like Samsung produce a machine that all of a sudden stopped working after a year? Several movies I had to watch on my laptop b/c it would not play. br / br /I could finally, at times, get some of the discs to work, but literally after trying 15 or 20 times! Then they started not working for a lot of pre-recorded discs as well, and even discs I made on this very machine! I bought a whole box set produced by 20th Century Fox, but can I watch any of them on this machine? No! br / br /I just burned a 2.5 hour movie from VHS to DVD+R (sometimes the plus-r's will not "initialize" correctly because they are "damaged" Bull! It's this machine that is truly damaged!) At any rate, when the movie was over I got the usual message after I pressed the stop button to wait. So I waited. And waited. And waited! Usually after 30 seconds or so the message disappears, but this one was on for literally 15 minutes! I could not shut the machine off or press stop. I had to unplug the damn thing and then it came back as a blank disc! I lost everything! br / br /I just bought a new non-name brand recorder, that will probably be much much better. Tomorrow Samsung goes into the garbage and hopefully my new machine will never give me this problem. br / br / br /To hell with Samsung and all of their products!
Worst recorder I ever had! May 17, 2008
Hisierrabob (Lake tahoe)
Samsung should be ashamed to have made such a overpriced faulty recorder. br /Mine has been for repair still rejects over half the blank DVDs. br /Takes much longer to finalize discs than other makes. br /If you stop recording before full disc, it says to wait "a moment" it takes enough time to have Breakfast or lunch. br /Could have bought 2-3 Lite-ons instead they work much better.
