Every nice unit Plays backed up DVD-r's DVD RAM Easy record and review functions I have only used RAM to record, so I don't know about the Disc finalizing times, but I can transfer data to my PC using Nero and burn to other media for archiving

So far no problems. Much clearer picture then my Liteon 5005's. Has a nice feature called flex-recording that varies the recording speed to fill a DVD with the preset time. i.e. If I want to record a 2:15 minute movie with my Liteon, I am forced to use the 4 hour mode and reduced quality. With the Panasonic, it adjusts the speed to fill the DVD with 2:15 minutes of recorded material. There are a few more steps needed to finalize and format DVD's then on the 5005 but, the resulting image is worth it. Only minor gripe I have is that there does not seem to be a battery back-up for the clock settings, it must use a capacitor. If the unit if off for longer then a short period of time, you must reset the clock. Knowing this would not stop me from buying another just like it though. Also has the HDTV up-converter to convert output to HD capable TV.

I've used: Sony DVD+R (SONY D21) Fujifilm DVD+RW (Daxon D42) Panasonic DVD-RAM (Matsushita M01J3004) Each disc type works fine every time I've tried them (many times each so far and still going). also plays DVD's from friends: DVD+R:RICOHJPN-R03-004 DVD-R:LEADDATA01 and commercial CD's for audio & video CD only one failure note so far: Won't read the Fuji DVD+RW when burned by PC using LG GSA-E10L w Ulead Movie Writer 3 SE and everything installed with default settings. Still working on that.

So far no problems, picture is clearer on the Panasonic then that from my Liteon 5005. Has 8 hour capability. To date, have only used Fuji and Sony DVD's.
