BARGAIN OF THE YEAR?
I recently bought the ROADSTAR dvd karaoke player from ARGOS for my daughter as it played dvd karaoke and cdg karaoke as well (it also plays other formats).I was so impressed with the machine I bought one for myself for downstairs in my living room so it could be connected to my hi-fi (being it was the holiday season and all that, few beers upset the neighbours you get the drift)Well I was tinkering around today (with the player) and guess what I found out about this machine. Not only is it multi-region...THE MACROVISION, CGMS IS ALSO DISABLED straight out of the box and I was able to record straight onto my panny E50.Is this a bargain machine or what? £99.99 for pure backup pleasure.Hope this find will help someone out there

Thanks for the advice,being a newbee to all this recording stuff i need input (johnny five)lol..so any advice would be appreciated.Also i would like to tell other potential buyers of a scart lead or box converter thre is no need to pay silly prices like ktvision or lektropacks charge for basically the same product at twice the price or more ,stick to SONEL and save your brass(well lektropacks told me they had tested some of those scart leads and they didn`t remove CGMS,but they would say that wouldn`t they)and their product isn`t even RGB compatable and costs £79.95 plus p+p,bloody cheek.I will endevor to purchase some verbatim dvd-r and let you know how i got on.... much appreciated BIG JULES
SUPER SONEL
BIG JULES!
I am writing this to congratulate SONEL for a fantastic product"The macro master pro".
Having only recently bought a panasonic dmr e50 recorder i read a few threads posted on this site and decided to purchase a five pack of leads from sonel.They were delivered next day by 11am(marvelous).I then proceded to connect up my phillips 625 to the pana,and to my surprise it didn`t work,so i phoned the company up on the mobile number listed where i spoke to a very nice and knowledgeable chap named andy who told me as per instructions to try an adapter with 12v output with the scart and` bingo` the whole thing came to life...I tried to copy a dvd (for back up only of course) and to my amazement it worked like a charm and full RGB quality as well. WELL DONE SONEL
A word of warning for phillips owners though, if you record a dvd onto dvd-r with another machine like myself (panasonic) and play it back on the phillips `suprise` it doesn`t play back without stalling slightly now and again .Could this be because phillips recommend dvd+r and don`t even mention dvd-r in the instructions for playable discs?
