I have had this for a few days and I am getting ready to send it back. I can typically read manuals and use new digital / tech items. I found it very difficult to use other than burning pictures from sd card to a dvd. Not worth the money I paid for it but thankfully I can still return it! February 19, 2012
Bought this unit to transfer home movies to DVD. First attempt would not finalize disc. After that, unit was unable to tell a disc was in the tray. Attempts to solve problem through Sony support failed. Luckily under warranty so getting a replacement - hopefully replacement unit will work. March 28, 2011
dissapointed I ordered this item for the sole purpose of coping movies off my DVR in HD to watch later or give to nephew. I am very disappointed by by the quality of the playback. It is not HD but SD which is unacceptable. The input is only standard cables; even after hooking up the s-video it is still nothing like HD on playback. No component in or HMDI in. For $250 im sure there is one out there that will do what I want...sending this unit back. Just got it yesterday. December 21, 2010
I WAS SOLD UNTIL I LEARNED NO SIGNAL PASS-THROUGH I own an older RDR-GX300 which offers signal pass-through. The MC10 is a newer model and they've regressed. I wanted to upgrade to this because my RDR model weighs 10 lbs and takes up lots of table space. It's so useless to have outputs on this device that only work during playback mode. I mean, you just burned a dvd, so why would you pay $100 difference when you can play the disc on any $25 player? I would think you could verify the recorded signal on the 2.5" screen which is on the cheaper models. But how would you verify the audio? Come on Sony, fix these issues on the next model and I will be first in line to buy one of these. July 10, 2010
