DVD-R Stand Alone Recorder

[VideoToaster 0]

I just picked up a Panasonic DMR-E30 stand alone DVD-R recorder. Is any one using this model or any other DVD stand alone recorders?
Any tips on what to do or what not to do using DVD stand alone recorder.

Thanks for any advice or help

Definitely interested in how well it works...

Here is a comment from the Speed Razor (video editing program) mail list : Just plug it in, feed it video, hit record. Use XP mode for best
results. I've been using what erver DVD media has been on sale at the store, and
haven't had any problems. If the Toaster works like Digisuite, you need to start Razor playing 2
seconds before you start the DMR-E30, and stop the DMR-E30 before stopping
Razor.

Here is my report on the
Panasonic DMR-E30 stand alone DVD-R recorder

Plug it in to power, connect video & audio, hit record
Simple as recording to a VCR

There are 4 modes of recording on the DVD-R 4.7GB
XP 1 Hr (best picture ) ,SP 2 Hrs , LP 4 Hrs , EP 6 Hrs

There is also an option for making titles but it is a slow process. But it does work

Cost is now in the $500-$550 range

Can you confirm or deny that the discs it's making are working in -most- DVD players and computers?

Could you list models in which you've specifically tested?

Also, what DVD-R media are you using? Brand (et. al.)
