VR and Video Modes

I just want to know what is the difference between these two modes. Is VR only relevant when using DVD-RW discx?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

MUSTEK PL207 Portable DVD

Anyone familiar with this player, I have just found it on a website for about £200, seems like a good deal. I have read a couple of reviews, some favourable and some not so.

Any help?

RE: US Portable DVD Players

I was under the impression that being portable, that it would probably run off of 9 or 12 volts therefore the plug that it comes with would convert 110 (or 240) volts to the necessary lower voltage required. Is that right or is my knowledge of electricity a bit amateur?

US Portable DVD Players

I am going to the US soon, and want to purchase a cheap portable DVD. Can anybody recommend any that are region-free or hackable?

Panasonic HS2 dubbing from HDD

When I dub from the HDD it seems to lock out both AV1 and AV2 so I am unable to watch my digibox, I got round this by connecting an RF lead to the spare RF socket on the digibox and connecting it to my TV. Is this a feature of the HS2 or am I doing something wrong?

I recently purchased a new TV and I set up my system in exactly the same manner, but now when I press "function" or "direct navigator" and it flips to AV2 I get the "blue screen of death", if I then flip the TV back to AV1 the menu will appear there. This never happened with my old TV.

Also can anyone recommend the best DVD-R for use in this machine, I purchased a bundle of ICE DVD-R (4x Speed) but they are not very good.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
