Better Than Expected.......2007-12-24
I own this Sony VRD-MC3 for about a year now, and it performs better than my expectation. At first I used it mainly as an independent DVD recorder without connect it to a PC. After the internal (in my PC) DVD burner started to trash many new recordable DVDs, I connected the Sony VRD-MC3 to the PC and windows XP detected it without any problem. It has not failed me so far including all DVDs that the internal DVD burner failed before. Now if I want to use it with a PC, I just go to the menu and set it to PC mode; and if not I just set it to no PC. This device is more than an external DVD burner, it can be use even without connect to a PC which many reviews already mention.
The Nero 7 come with it was a bonus for me. I wanted to buy a software package similar to Nero, and found that it is already included with this burner. The software at the time cost about $xx which is already included for free. Before install Nero, I first created a restore point in XP (I do this before any installation that I am not sure of...). After installed the included copy of Nero 7 the system seemed to work fine, I did not notice any problem. I have the option of upgrade Nero 7 to a newer version for free. I took the option and upgraded. For some reason, XP become very un-responsive after the upgrade. Without spending time to find out why, I un-installed Nero and restore XP back to the pre-installation restore point. I then re-install the included copy of Nero 7 and do a few tests. This copy of Nero 7 has been working fine for me since. I have been using it for about a year now.
I think the Sony VRD-MC3 and the included Nero 7 price is very reasonable.
The one and only..........2007-12-07
Since i can't give it less than a single star...if this was a letter grade i'd give it an F minus!!!
Right now i'm in my SEVENTH hour trying to record my cousin's wedding video for his widow, one of the only moving image recordings she has of him...so you can understand why she's reluctant to give it out to one of the photo stores in the neighbourhood.
RIGHT NOW the PAUSE light is on although the RECORDING time meter is still running, and when i tried to view it on my computer on previous recordings i got no picture, although when i went to Roxio there was 4.4 gigs on the disc!
Of course, when you go to the Sony site it's IMPOSSIBLE to get any tech support, and i can't blame it all on the Vista since it doesn't play on the regular DVD player...so it looks like Sony is no longer the premier name in electronics:(
Operates as advertised: Sublime.......2007-11-16
I've used this device now to archive an 8-tape set of teaching videos my staff has had limited ability to access while stuck on VHS. The transfer process is incredibly simple. Turn on the device, format your DVD (a wide range are compatible), set your quality setting, start the tape and HIT THE BIG RED BUTTON. Navigation through the basic menu is simple. One thing that's led to a few DVD-coasters: remember to stop the burner *before the end of the DVD's recording limit*. Going over the time limit seems to lock up the device.
But as a quick tool to get video off tapes and into your DVD player--this is it. It's too bad that Sony has Apple-issues. The included software is PC-only and consumer-grade stuff all around. But I didn't buy this for use with a computer. I bought it to not have to tie up my computer on these long burns. And for that this device excels.
I have used this device with VHS and miniDV tapes as well as Sony HDD cameras. The quality of the final product is a great representation of the source material. Don't expect your VHS to look brilliant in the transfer. It will at least be able to pause on single frames once digital. HDD footage however was great.
Ok for VHS, but a problem with Hi-8.......2007-10-27
When I first set this up it worked like a dream to copy VHS tapes, even using a non-Sony VCR. Then I tried to use it with a Firewire per the instruction manual to copy Hi-8 tapes from a Sony digital camcorder (DCR-TRV310). I get a message saying "recording will begin once the tape has rewound," but when rewound recording does not start, and I can't make it start, even when pressing the "play" button again manually on the camcorder, or by starting over with the tape rewound. I can't figure this problem out, since the camcorder works fine when, e.g., connected to a TV so I don't think that's the problem. Has anyone else had this problem? Could it somehow relate to the Hi-8 tapes, which were recorded with an earlier-generation Sony camcorder? Somehow if that were the issue I wouldn't expect it to be this problem, as compared to some kind of error message. Any solutions? I suspect that if I call Sony they'll tell me it's the camcorder's fault (although it's a Sony!)and I doubt that.
Sony DVD Recorder.......2007-10-17
I purchased this recorder to be used exclusively to transfer all my old VHS tapes onto DVDs. For this application it has performed perfectly. So far I have transferred about 40 tapes without a single failure. It permits me a certain amount of editing, ie, deleting portions, shuffling tapes, and it also allows to load anywhere from one to six hours on a DVD (with quality reduction at the longer times.) Good device.
