DVDirect
This product is great. If you need your VHS tapes, DVD discs &/or mini video tapes moved to a DVD disc it is easy to use. I really have made use of my DVDirect by Sony.

Love it!! So easy to use!!
I purchased this dvd recorder to transfer my minidv tapes to dvd. I have a Sony minidv camcorder. It works awesome!! My husband & I had been working on transferring all the tapes to dvd for some time, but hadn't gotten very far. It is very time consuming to transfer the tape to the computer and then burn a dvd. This dvd recorder does it in real time, as you are watching the video it is being burned to dvd. All of our minidv tapes are on dvd now and this also has slots for your memory card for your digital camera. I have also used this to make photo CDs. Love it!! Love it!! Love it!!

Terrific Recorder
This recorder is terrific. Only had one small issue with the unit detecting copy protection signals on homemade tapes, but SONY C.S. quickly resolved that issue with a software fix. As an extra bonus, I have been able to record shows directly from my cable receiver. That feature was not advertised in the product literature.

I have been very happy with the performance of the VRDMC5. It has been worth the purchase price.

Disappointing and one dimensional
This product will not connect to your computer USB port to record videos
you may have on your PC. It is a stand alone DVD burner for connections to
memory cards or Sony Handycams. This should be clearly stated on their sales
literature and is very deceptive. I have returned mine and was very
disappointed im the lack of interface ability.

Very Nice Product
It works very well for the primary purpose for purchasing this product. I wanted a quick and easy way to burn a DVD of movie clips shot on my Sony SR82 HDD camcorder and transfer VHS tapes to DVD without messing with capture cards and burner programs. It does this nicely. I have not used it for photos yet but plan to in the future. It is nicely made and easy to operate.
