I purchased a DVD recorder/VCR combo from Worst Buy just a few days ago. It is an LG Multiformat and sold for 249.99 or something close to it. So far it has not given me any major problems. However, I presume from reviews on the best buy.com site, amazon.com, cnet.com, and epinions.com. Most of the reviews about this product are horrible. The item starts to just stop working after a few months - sometimes sooner. Many report that the unit gets very very hot. The other replica at bestbuy which is a Panasonic for 299.00 has also gotten bad reviews.
I have a Panasonic DVD player (not recorder) and have had this for several years and have had no problems with it. I'm judgement that maybe DVD/VCR combos are just not built well. Is this the case? I'm thinking about taking it back and looking to see what Sears has to offering. What do you suggest? If I pay 250 bucks for something it had better last for several years like all my other electronics.
This is the model info:
LG - Multiformat DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW/RAM Recorder/4-Crisis Hi-Fi VCR Combo
Model: RC897T

I fall short of a small TV for my bedroom to accept both VCR and DVD player inputs.
Some do, some don't. Most don't. If you find one with a only SCART socket then a SCART switchbox will solve your problem.

Most cheaper models have one scart more up-market two.

scart is on the way out, a more current connector is the
HDMI input, SCART is analogue, HDMI is digital.
intermediate connectors are component video and S Video
so it may depend on what DVD and/or VCF you have.. VCR's I'd conjecture to be SCART but a DVD could have HDMI and / or component/s Video.

I have a Magnavox DVD/VCR player. The VCR side still works consummate. I watched a movie a few nights ago and it played fine but once I took that one out and put a new one in, it would no longer play. It opens and says it is reading it but never plays. It even makes the sounds as if it is irksome to read it but can't. And tips on how to fix it without having to buy a whole new DVD player?

I have had this VCR/DVD player for absolutely awhile. It played everything perfectly and then one day it decided to just stop playing anything? I cleaned the lens immediately (removing the cover and spray it with dust remover). This resolved the issue but I could only play about half of my DVD collecting. Now, it's starting this again. Suggestions on fixing this besides ejecting out my window?
I found a way to expand the region codes so now it's playing everything. Thanks for the suggestions.
