.com Easy to set up and even easier to operate, the compact and affordable GoVideo DV1030 gives you a full-featured DVD player/CD player to handle your movies and music--including MP3 files stored on CD-R or CD-RW--and a built-in four-head, hi-fi, stereo VCR to play your existing library of videotapes and record new programs. Front-panel audio/video inputs accommodate camcorder and gaming hookups, JPEG picture CD playback lets you watch slideshows of your digital photos, and the unit's compatibility with recordable DVDs (DVD-R, DVD-RW) makes copying your homemade tapes to discs, and vice versa, a breeze. The combo unit even lets you watch a DVD or listen to a CD while recording a TV show. Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DV1030's DVD section stands ready to deliver the full potential of your commercial 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. Even without an HD-ready set, the component-video outputs can be set to output interlaced video, in which they help minimize line-scan and digital artifacts on compatible televisions. Composite- and S-video outputs bring DVD compatibility with nearly any television. In the audio realm, two sets of left/right RCA analog-audio outputs (one each for the DVD player and the VCR) channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. For immersive home-theater audio from DVDs, both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's optical digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. If you don't have a surround receiver or six-channel speaker setup, you can still make every movie night the ultimate experience: 3D Surround simulates surround sound through two speakers (even the stereo speakers on your TV). This model's four-head VCR design ensures smooth slow-motion play (forward and reverse) and clear still-frame images, while hi-fi sound records and plays back stereo audio tracks. If you route the stereo output to an AV receiver, you can even enjoy four-channel (left, center, right, and monaural surround) Dolby Pro Logic mixes from TV and Dolby-encoded videotapes. Convenient features include eight-event, one-year programming, 19-micron heads (which deliver the clearest possible picture when recording or viewing in extended-play mode), and auto clock and channel sets.What's in the Box DVD/VCR combo player/recorder, remote control, remote batteries (2 AAA), user's manual, and stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.

Defective. Sent back.
This did not work when we unpacked it at home. The vhs never played, kept ejecting, and the DVD player played MAYBE 20 seconds of video then the screen went dark. We returned it the very day we got it. Advise? Stay away from this kind of thing in Amazon. They say they looked at it, and "verified" that it worked. The reality though is that it was sent back as defective and we got our money back.

Great "Disposable" System
This particular device is not worth any money put into it. The one I had, as well as a few friends, all had the same problem or similar. Mine, the dvd was no longer receiving the signal from the remote after having it barely a year. I called and had the remote replace, which worked for a week and then died. Other problems friends have had are that it will only play 10 minutes of a dvd before turning off. If you only want a dvd player for a year or less this is a great item for you. If you want one with stamina to last longer than its warranty, dont bother.

Terrible piece of useless junk
I bought this some time ago. The VHS and DVD player do not work. The remote was not the right one. When I tried to find the company to see if I could get the correct remote, there was no evidence of who they were, and Amazon was unable to help me.I gave it a rating of 1 star because it does serve as an interface between the Sony DVP-SR200P/B DVD Player, Black and my analog television.
