Title: lite-on - wrong priorities
Review: I bought the LVW-5115 after giving up on my second LVW-5005. I hoped this model would be better.It still freezes up, but the 5005 froze when I pushed stop while this one freezes when I push pause.The color is just wierd. It shifts everything toward the green.It stops recording (some of the time) if there is a gap in the tape you are trying to copy. My old videotapes are full of these gaps. I think this problem results from Lite-on's (similar to other manufacturers') concern that I might copy copyrighted videotapes. So, the recorder is very sensitive to anomalies in the signal. Of course, this makes no sense because the law very explicitly allows people to make one copy of any copyrighted material for his or her own use.But this is not what I was trying to do, anyway. My old tapes are from TV shows, recorded on my own VCR. This unit is going back and I guess I will try another brand.
Is the review positive or negative?
