Title: OK for SP, but unwatchable in EP
Product review: My main disappointment with this machine is that it won't play back tapes in the EP (6-hour) speed. The playback is jumpy to the point of being unwatchable (oddly, you can record tapes in EP on this machine and they will play back OK on other machines. I'm not sure what the problem is). Another annoyance is that when you fast-forward (e.g. to skip commercials), it tends to overshoot when you resume normal speed, causing you to miss about 15 seconds of the program unless you back up again... vexing! One good thing about the machine is that tape rewinding is blazingly fast.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
