This is a nearly perfect product. It worked first time I connected it up. Antenna into DVR and out to DTV converter, then on to TV. This allows viewing one channel and recording another. It has internal digital tuner, can record shows from different channels, and has a very nice menu to do so.With this box, you can record one show and watch another simultaneously, a point they don't stress very much. Can record only one at a time, but that's a minor flaw. It is easy to use and produces great output, both video and audio.Unlike some others, it doesn't need cable, dish or other subscription. TIVO costs $13/month, this one has no such requirement.I wish they were more available and advertised more. I did quite a bit of a searching to find it, but have already recommended it.Recorded shows can be saved to DVD for future use, or recorded directly onto hard disk or DVD. At lowest resolution, it can record 200 hours, and picture is still great, much better than from VCR.I cannot recommend it highly enough. And I am glad to see someone (Philips) recognizes that not everyone is being held hostage by the cable/dish providers.
Exactly what I needed, a DVR that I don't have to pay my cable company $10/month to use. The unit was relatively easy to set up, but it took me awhile to figure out the remote and the setup process. I'm still having to refer to a rather thick user manual that is poorly organized, and some of the steps are difficult to follow. The DVR records and plays back all my favorite shows perfectly, and I connected my Sony video tape deck so that I can record to DVD all my old VHS tapes. I am one happy customer!
I have had a Panasonic DVR for 5 years and was very satisfied with it. I purchased this unit because I was concerned that my Panasonic would fail someday and I occassionally have two programs I want to record.This product has performed beyond expectations. The menus are very user friendly. The remote is easy to use and has features that are not available on my Panasonic. I liked this product so much that I bought a second one for my daughter. I have discovered that the hard drive is a standard PC hard drive. It is very easy to replace if the current hard drive should fail. Also, it can be replaced with a larger 250 GB hard drive.
Rarely do I find a product that lives up to its CLAIMS & reviews. As a self-proclaimed intelligent consumer, I pride myself in taking the time and effort to educate myself before making any purchasing decision. In this case, It was necessary to start literally at the basics and build my knowledge base from there. I have not been dissapointed! I became interested in this product, the Phillips DVDR3576H, as it had the features in which I was most interested. The 160GB hard disk is large enough to allow temporary story of the programs stored on my satellite box DVR until I am ready to record to DVD. The editing features allow me just enough freedom to edit out unwanted commercials and such. The unit easily interfaced with my existing system and does not interfere with my wife's ability to do what she does. The instructions seem very intuitive to me, and the unit was installed, up and recording in less than 30 minutes. I am very satisfied with this product thus far and I am anticipating much use of it in the future. I would recommend this product to others.
I purchased this recorder for my sister as a gift. I own one and really love it. She is just as happy with hers as I am with mine.
the door to the dvd side frequently won't open so we are unable to use the product
I needed this exact kind of item but it was hard to find one in current manufacture, as they had fallen out of popularity. Overstock had one, and it works well. That's it.
Very useful product, a breeze to use. Recorded programs look great, the features are a plus. I reccomend to anyone looking for a DVR that rocks.
I bought a bunch of Philips dvd recorders DVDR3576H for myself and other people. The quality of the pictures is stunning and most of all the units are able to record on the hard drive VHS tape videos and videos from other sources. The most impressing for me was that I was able to hook my camera canon T1I and record the home videos I taped on to the hard drive and then dubbed them on to dvds. The only minor deficiency I noticed is that the unit cannot record 2 shows at a time. But the overall quality of the unit is very good.
This is not a good product for someone who is not very tech savy. The Geek Squad hooked it up for me and said I would need to read the instruction book for further details about how to operate it. I did that and I have been unable to do anything but play a DVD. I tried to record a program on the HDD and then play it and nothing was there. I tried again and I got only snow. I have cable but no box. This may be a great product for people who know a lot about electronics but that is not me.
