I bought the LG VCR because my old faulty went and I already knew the user guide of LG good. The design makes a good impression, chic anthracite / gray; the connections with 2x Scart, 1x front AV and audio input for stereo Dolby system are noticed positively. The operating menu is very intuitive and easy to use, it can be done only on the screen. Even without a manual to get clear. Another positive fall automatic tuning on the light and program shift. What is negative noticed that it does not have a VPS and no ShowView, only higher-47xx models have it so. Otherwise, these items were not listed, so not a huge complaint. Yet there the star deduction for it. The picture and sound on the other hand are 1a. The tape rewinds and fast forwards and backwards, remaining time display can be seen in the form of a bar on Bildschrirm by 2x OK Press. However, the recording is a little late, about 1.5 sec. After you press Record. Also at break stop and re recording. if you want to only record individual sequences full example, you have about 1.5 seconds after the imaginary end only to pause press to allow for new recording, the complete end of the penultimate recording sequence is on it. But you get used to it. Both the captured and old VHS he plays in excellent image + sound. Also LP can compete and play in excellent quality, LP falls with the device is not so much from to SP as in older / other VCRs. It also has video head doctor and many more or less useful features. It may well also play NTSC and Secam also. I'm not sure he could even can record Secam with picture and sound, this would have to try later, a 49xx-er model, this can certainly. The timer is also very easy to use and you need eigtl. No ShowView. It can be switched off completely then there is no clock and it saves electricity. By pressing it turns on and also with clock it can operate in standby. Very good lesabr. Even when switched off utter it remembers the time and also the programs. Very pleasant. Whether it does this even after prolonged disconnection from the mains, I have not yet tried. So if you occasionally receive direct a film / broadcast and no VPS or ShowView needs, which is the unit highly recommended. For 79 euros you have then done nothing wrong. But I will take the court of my parents because that has also VPS and ShowView, but it has cost 110 euros. Have fun with it.
