probs with 2 discs with alba rdvd 1001

Got this from argos expecting to be able to copy home video`s then play them either on pc or dvd player, only to find out that you have to compress them with dvd shrink then burn them again...been in constant contact with alba technical team and they say it`s a compression problem..seems like you have to make another copy of a disc to be able to play it on anything other than the dvd recorder... anyone else had this prob with other dvd recorders as will be trying another this weekend the goodmans from argos. I have also had probs with it not recognising the video cam when plugged into the the front composite ports. This I solved with using a scart connection in the back from the cam..I am not sure what to do as all I wanted to do was copy the dvds to +r`s then copy them for the family on the pc to -r`s...looks like i am going to have to stick with video tapes until the problem is solved..any ideas anyone to get round this problem other that trying to find a dvd player that will play the discs as soon as recorded...I cannot recommend this recorder due to the time that I have spent trying to sort something this simple out.... :(

RE: Akura ADV14S DVD player £37.49 at Kwiksave

Quite good for £37 though it`s just a saving of £2. Got one the other day. It plays my vcd`s, dvd`s from malaysia and mp3`s on cdr no problem. Its just like getting 2 dvd`s for the price unless ya get them from south east asia 8)
