I recommend buyers look at the Amazon reviews for defunct JVC VHS/DVD
dual deck products before they purchase any current dual deck model.
They have a proven history of extremely poor build quality. JVC keeps
rapidly changing model numbers, which makes this more difficult for
the consumer to discover. However they all look very similar with
only slight cosmetic differences.
Search on these item numbers and see for yourself:
JVC SR-MV40US
* Built Defective, I bought and returned three of these units (12/2007)
* Faulty DVD Drive is a known inevitable problem on every unit (11/2007)
* Worked well while it worked (10/2007)
* Disk Error on most discs after 5 months of owning the unit (08/2007)
* No luck with this (06/2007)
* Problem unit (05/2007)
JVC HRXVC27U (5 1-stars out of 8)
* 1yr and 1/2 and it died (02/2005)
* Worst home electronic device I've ever owned (03/2006)
* Barely outlived the warranty (10/2005)
* the J must stand for Junk (05/2005)
JVC DRMV5S (8 1-stars out of 16)
*

I was suprised that there is no way to connect directly to the TV cable and I had to buy an RF converter from Radio Shack. I think I should have been warned, especially since I bought this model because I thought I wouldn't need a cable box. I got it to go through setup but still no picture when the VCR/DVR is on.
I finally was able to speak to JVC consumer assistance which told me that I cannot record anything unless it's on the TV. I am going to try to return this and buy a more traditional model.
