AWESOME DVR/DVD BURNER BOX

 

First and foremost, I must mention that is my first DVR TV top set, so I have nothing else to compare it to except to my high expectation. With that said, I absolutely love my Toshiba RS-TX60. I have it for over 2 months now and it has not dissapointed...

Very intuitive/ easy to use; Very smart system; Comes with TiVo Basic

TiVo Plus teaser; Only burns DVR- @ 2x; Can't set shortcut buttons

Solid Unit Could use better video driver

 

Solidly built unit. AV outputs a little close to the USB Ports (Tivo Supported NetGear USB Adapter a little too fat to fit without extension cable.) Could use digital (coax or loptical) input to go from Cable box to device. A little noisy on the video...

Creates DVDs Quickly

No Digital Audio Input DVD-R/RW only

"Internal Error - Saving Failed"

 

"Internal Error - Saving Failed"

This unit worked well for a year, but we now get constant Internal Error; Saving Failed messages. I see by reading reviews, this is also a problem on the RS-TX 20 models. Rebooting works at times, but overall it's like the Hotel California: you can...

Getting your Toshiba DMS serviced

One of the best Tivo units

 

One of the best Tivo units

I got one of these for my wife at Christmas 2004. She got me a Denon AVR3805 receiver. Win win I say! It has been a terrific machine. The ability to burn shows to either DVD-R or DVD-RW is truly wonderful. Storage space is generous to say the least....

Great! Until the DVD Recorder Died... Twice.

 

Great! Until the DVD Recorder Died... Twice.

I purchased the Toshiba RS-TX60 last October. That unit arrived with a malfunctioning DVD recorder. About 1 or 2 out of six DVDs would successfully burn. Of the others, some that could not be read by the TiVo unit could be read by my laptop DVD player....

Beyond my expectations

 

Beyond my expectations

No support available

 

No support available

I loved the Toshiba RS-TX60, until it started to malfunction six months after I bought it. Support is essentially not available. TIVO phone support won't allow you to get past the start menu if you own a Toshiba product. Toshiba says that the issue is...
