Records video to DVD or VHS; HDMI output up to 1080i; digital and analog tuner for over-the-air TV reception; IR blaster for cable/satellite box control; FireWire input for camcorder dubbing; USB port for digital media playback.
No S-Video input; ATSC tuner cannot deliver full HDTV resolution; lack of EPG makes timer recordings a hassle; LP mode doesnt compare to Panasonics; no flexible custom recording speed.
The LG RC797T is a competent DVD/VHS recorder with some attractive extra features, but it doesnt quite stack up to the competition.
