Title: Frustrating
Product review: Maybe this recorder is great - that is if you can install it. We have a system with a TV, satellite box and a VCR and wanted to add the recorder to it. We tried with or without VCR, used schemes in the enclosed booklet and online - didn't work. Setup does not see channels and suggests to check the connections. Guess what? They are perfect! Everything else works, but the recorder does not. It didn't want to play our disks either. Panasonic customer support - that virtual attendant that reads recorded messages (hate this!), live person took forever to answer the call and I quit waiting.After two evenings of trying to figure it all out, it all started to look like we paid money and got ourselves a big problem. I am returning the thing back tomorrow, frustrated, disappointed and feeling totally dumb - we never ever had a problem connecting electronics, be it computers, video and audio systems, or sattelite.Maybe this is simply a defective unit, I don't know.
