Amazon.com Product Description
Featuring a progressive-scan DVD player combined with a four-head hi-fi VCR, this Toshiba SD-V392 dual-function unit delivers the crisp resolution and enhanced sound of high-quality DVDs paired with the ability to record your favorite programs and movies on VHS tapes. The unit flexibly interacts with a number of audio and video formats, including DVD-Video, DVD-R, video CD, audio CD, and CD-R/RW, along with MP3- and WMA-encoded formats and JPEG digital photo CDs. Like other versatile DVD players, the device also offers a selectable display format, which delivers a choice between interlaced or progressive scan depending on whether users own a HDTV-capable TV. Progressive scan displays images at a higher scan rate for a sharper, richer picture, while interlaced is the standard for traditional non-HDTV televisions. The VCR is equipped for most common and high-end functions, featuring a program timer, 30-second commercial skip, and even the ability to watch DVDs while recording a TV show. The VCR's hi-fi stereo is bolstered by its built-in MTS decoding, which delivers a clearer audio performance. The DVD player is also compatible with a variety of enhanced audio functions, as its coaxial and audio digital outputs connect to Dolby Digital- and DTS-capable receivers for rich surround sound. The player also supports virtual surround sound, creating an audio environment that broadcasts simulated full theater sound over a two-speaker system. The system connects to other components through its component-video, S-video, and composite-outputs, along with the aforementioned digital audio outputs. The player includes a 54 MHz/10-bit video DAC and 192 kHz/24-bit audio DAC, and comes with a full-featured remote control. What's in the Box
DVD player/VCR, remote control, AV cables, user's manual.

 Nice features but doesnt work well. January 17, 2008
I normally have had good experience with Toshiba products but this combo DVD/VCR has not performed well. DVDs often freeze up. I have a Phillips DVD in another room and it always seems to have little trouble playing DVDs that have be freezing up in the Toshiba. It is nice to have the combo player although you will not be able to copy dvds onto tape due to copy protection.
 WARNING~ SAVE YOUR MONEY! October 6, 2007
I received this DVD/VCR combo player as a gift 18 months ago. This is in my office and has been used minimally. When I first got it I should have returned it based on the reviews I had read from previous owners. I talked myself into keeping it with the thoughts that most people who have positive experiences with a product don't post reviews which explains the low rating this product receives. If you are looking for a product that you only plan a short term use then this may be ok for you. If you are buying this from a local major electronics retailer then I highly suggest you purchase the extended warranty plan. I have a Sylvania DVD player that I purchased years ago when Dvd players became affordable ($300) that still works as good as it did on day one. I'll be looking for a new DVD player this weekend. I no longer have a need for the VCR portion of this player so I will most likely choose a lower end model that I won't mind throwing away and replacing after 18 months. At the current price for this player and the consistently poor reliews it gets I'd choose another model.

My husband won this VCR/DVD player at a trade show, so we got it for free. It worked fine for about 1 1/2 years with very light use (maybe playing one DVD every month to two months).
Last night I watched a movie on it and it worked fine. This morning, it is completely dead for no reason. Basically it appears power is just not getting to the machine. I have read several other reviews to this effect on this product and other Toshiba products, so I don't think this is a freak occurrence.
Basically, I think this is a fine product if you get it cheap and recognize that it is not a quality piece of equipment that will serve you for an extended length of time. I find it slightly extra annoying that there was no warning whatsoever that it was on its way out, but it is what it is.

I bought this unit in September of 2004 and was very satisfied with it. Then, for no reason, it just died in January 2007. Seemed like a connection was loose and that electricity wasn't getting to it, but everything was hooked up tight. I had to use a butter knife to pry open the DVD player to get the DVD out that was in it. I think it should have lasted more than just a bit over 3 years with little to moderate use. I replaced it with a JVC that got great consumer reviews.
Died after a year and a half July 20, 2006

Very disappointing. I've been a loyal Toshiba customer and used the machine, but did not overuse it, and cleaned the heads regularly and one night, barely a year and a half after purchase it just died. The cost of repair was not worth the investment and it was well past the warranty so I discarded it. It's a shame, I liked Toshiba products but I don't plan to buy another one now.
