Amazon.com Product Description

GoVideo's R6740 DVD recorder lets you easily record your favorite television shows and treasured home videos to high-quality, long-lasting DVD+R (write-once) and DVD+RW (rewriteable) discs. The recorder's built-in NTSC TV tuner and onscreen user interface permits up to 5 timer recordings over a full year, with 4 recording speeds providing between 1 and 6 hours of content on each DVD disc. The R6740's high-quality recordings and easy operation make it a perfect replacement for the traditional VCR.

The R6740's versatile playback features include progressive-scan video outputs and support for recordable CDs filled with MP3 audio files and JPEG images. A variety of video and audio inputs--including front-panel connections for fast, temporary hookups--grant connection to virtually all televisions and home theater components. An easy-to-use full-function remote control commands all the action.

The R6740 features an integrated EZ-Guide feature that helps simplify DVD recording by walking you step-by-step through recording a variety of content to DVD. An intuitive sequence of questions and instructions appear onscreen to guide users from start to finish through the recording process. The R6740 also comes with GoVideo's innovative AutoPlay feature, designed to skips ads, trailers, and menus, jumping right to the start of your movie. Simply place the disc in the tray, press the play key, and the movie starts without interruption.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the R6740 stands ready to deliver the full playback potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

When recording, the unit automatically creates a new disc title every time you start a new recording. You can then add chapters to these recordings manually or have them automatically inserted at 5-minute intervals (up to 30 minutes).

Connections include a pair of composite- and S-video inputs, an RF antenna input, and an IEEE 1394 DV (digital video) input for a direct, high-quality connection with a digital camcorder. Front-panel inputs (including the DV input) foster easy hookups with camcorders and other video components.

DVD+RW discs require no finalizing: you can record, eject, and play them with minimal fuss, thanks to "background formatting." This feature, which lowers total burning time, is an advantage over the "dash" formats. Other DVD+RW advantages include on-disc content editing and multisession writing. And, through DVD+RW and DVD+R's compatibility with most existing DVD players, they're a great way for you to share your special memories with family and friends.

To help you navigate the transition from VCR to DVD recording, GoVideo's "white-glove customer care" includes free telephone assistance in making your first recording, should you need it.

What's in the Box
DVD player/recorder, a blank DVD+RW disc, a full-function remote control, remote batteries, an RF coaxial audio/video cable (three feet), a stereo analog audio/composite-video interconnect, a quick-reference guide, warranty card, and a user's manual.

1 out of 5 stars Don't buy anything from GoVideo!.......2007-01-04

I bought this exact DVD recorder from QVC for $[...]. It was not user friendly for recording and I wound up just using it as a second DVD player. I have it 2 years but used it maybe 50 times. I can't get the disk tray open and my 3 1/2 year old's Nemo DVD is stuck in there. I contacted GoVideo via email since all other ways were impossible and this is the response I got today and I quote: "Go Video no longer offers tech support or customer service." Hello! I looked up reviews on all GoVideo products offered now or at one time from Amazon and they are all basically the same as mine. Stay away from this brand!

1 out of 5 stars Go.Video is out of business.......2006-06-10

Go.Video is out of business.

After 18 months, this unit's motherboard failed. Under a service contract, a local repair shop was stalled by Go.Video for two months before acknowledging that no replacement was available. My service contract provider will now only authorize $129.98 to replace the unit because "the marketplace"(Amazon)has set this price for the unit. As with the AKAI DVDRW120, which shares the underlying hardware and firmware, this unit has a sketchy reliability record.

1 out of 5 stars Choose Something Else.......2006-05-13

I have been a GoVideo owner since 2004. I purchased this unit from a tv shopping channel and it had given relatively good service since its initial use. The unit recently stopped working and I have had a very difficult time in finding anyone here who repairs this equipment. The name/number that I given by the company's tech. support was not even accurate. When I called the repair shop, I was told they had never been connected with or did they ever submit any info. to GoVideo that they were a factory authorized service center. The other complaint that I have is that of the durablility of the product. My initial investment in 2004 was about $300. I would have expected a product under normal use to last for sometime longer than a couple of years. I have recently purchased a new unit and have stared again. Hopefully, this product will be somewhat more durable than the GoVideo product. And, hopefully, their tech. support and information will be a great deal more accurate.

2 out of 5 stars Do they build these things to be disposable?.......2006-05-05

This DVDR lasted 15 months. It was plagued by intermittant operation and now the door won't open. Can't recommend this one.

1 out of 5 stars Don't Buy It.......2006-03-09

My recorder broke just after a year. It won't format, the disc door won't open, etc... Also, you can't edit your recorder such as erasing the commericals to fit more tv show. I will not buy another GoVideo product. However, I do recommend using American Express Blue Cash to buy your electronics. Their Buyer Assurance program extended the warranty of my purchase by another year. AE credit my credit card the original purchase price instead of having me get the DVD recorder fix. I am very happy with AE. I am going to charge all my purchases with AE from now on. AE is how every company to run their business.
