When the VCR/DVD combo came out I thought it was the greatest invention ever. Even now it is still a good component to have in your audio visual arsenal. You may not use the VCR part of the unit as much as the DVD but it is still good to have for those random VHS tapes you unearth during spring cleaning or movies that aren't yet available on DVD. Whatever you use it for, you want to have the right model for your particular situation, be it hi-fi or just for a spare bedroom TV. Here are a few things to look for in your search.

  1. VCR specifications. This is pretty simple for the most part, because the VCR technology is essentially the same for all of these types of devices. They will all have Hi-fi stereo, 4 head, progressive scan and the ability to record on blank VHS tapes. The recording functions include auto clock, channel setup and an event timer to record up to 8 different shows with one tape. There are a select few models that have super-VHS capabilities, which improves clarity, but you need to be watching super VHS tapes.
  2. DVD specifications. The DVD side of the player is where most of the differences between models are found. Most DVD players play most video disc formats, from DVD-Video to DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW. Basically the "-" discs are mostly used by apple and can only be recorded on one layer. The "+" discs are mostly used by PC's and can recorded on multiple layers giving it more storage and thereby making it more expensive. The "R" stands for recordable and the "RW" stands for re-writeable. For more on the differences between all these formats check out this article. Most DVD players usually also handle audio CD, VCD/SVCD, and CD-R/RW discs containing MP3 music or JPEG image files.

    If I have one suggestion, it would be to get a model that can play all these media types. You will appreciate the convenience afforded by having a player this versatile. Some DVD players have processors that will improve the quality of less-than-perfect DVDs while getting the optimal quality of pristine discs. Some DVD players have recording capabilities. These can record your favorite shows or even the VHS tape you have playing in the same unit! Using DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R and DVD+RW media, you can save these tapes and shows digitally. If you don't have a DVD burner on your computer or a DVR, I'd recommend getting one of these models even though they are on the expensive side.
