Product Description

Why bother with lesser-known brands when you can get a fine VHS VCR by Panasonic? The Panasonic PV-V4621 is Home Theater Ready, which allows it to integrate into your home theater because the width is the same as other standard audio components. It is an excellent performer loaded with features that make it fun and easy to use. This model features front A/V input jacks and trilingual on-screen displays (in French, English and Spanish.) Auto Clock Set, also featured on every Panasonic VCR, uses the Extended Data Service signal from the user's local PBS channel to automatically set and update the time and date. In the event of a power outage, the time and date will automatically be reset within 24 hours. VCR Plus+ lets users program the VCR by entering the PlusCode numerical codes that are found in many newspapers' television listings, as well as in every edition of TV Guide. The PV-V4621 feature Rapid FF and Rewind. A high-performance mechanism will advance or rewind a 120-minute tape in approximately 1 minute, versus an average speed of approximately 2.5 minutes on a conventional VCR. Families who rent a lot of movies are sure to appreciate this convenience feature.

Amazon.com Product Description

The Panasonic PV-V4621 four-head hi-fi stereo VCR is home theater ready with convenient front audio-video jacks. This sleek, silver VCR offers a host of convenient features including the VCR Plus+ Silver program guide with ZIP code setup, Movie and Commercial Advance, tape-position display, and index and program-end search options.

The PV-V4621's four-head design delivers a dramatically crisp, clear picture to your television. Its pair of RCA audio jacks coupled with its hi-fi design offer enhanced audio output, making this a great VCR to connect to your home theater system.

In addition to its superb audio and video output, Panasonic includes VCR Plus+ Silver program guide, which lets you program most recordings simply by entering your ZIP code, taking much of the hassle out of the process. The PV-V4621's Movie and Commercial advance zips you past movie previews and commercials. Index search lets you quickly and precisely index and then search for your favorite recordings using discrete numeric codes, while program-end search takes you to the end of a program at the touch of a button.

The onscreen tape-position display shows you the tape's current position in the recording process. Other displays include multilingual onscreen displays that let you read programming guides and menus in English, Spanish, or French.

Panasonic's PV-V4621 also includes all those features you've come to expect with a VCR--pause, resume play, one-touch recording, auto stop, and more. An illuminated multibrand universal remote control is also included.

The PV-V4621 is Energy Star compliant and comes with a warranty of a year on parts, 90 days on labor.

Frustrating Failure.......2003-01-30

Died right after the warranty expired...

Poor quality is the halmark of the Panasonic PV-V4621.......2002-06-18

Have had to return the unit twice (so far). The replacement was worse than the original. Avoid Panasonic products made in Indonesia and Mexico. Products made in Japan are much better.

Three months and it does'nt work!.......2002-03-27

I bought this VCR in December, it's now March and the picture is gone. the screen is just blue when it is on "play", but if you Fast Forward or Rewind it, you can see the picture. Bizarre! Our other VCRs lasted several years. I contacted Panasonic but have not had a reply. Needless to say, I am NOT happy with this purchase.

Clunky and hard to use.......2002-03-08

Positives, puts out good video. I purposely bought a TV and VCR from the same manufacturer to simplify remote control problems. I will not buy from panasonic again. The VCR remote can control the TV, but there are two vcr/tv buttons, they do different things, but it isn't obvious or intuitive when to use which one. This machine has a lot, and I mean a lot of buttons on the remote. The VCR has no RCA video jack out, but it does have one for video in and there is no explanation for this from customer service. There are an endless list of illogical inconsistencies with this machine. Unless you want complications in your life, avoid this machine.

Overall, I recommend you avoid this machine, unless you like looking through manuals to figure out what button to push for what. The video output is nice though, can you tell I'm trying to be positive.

Disappointing.......2002-02-25

Bought a 'scratch & dent' unit from Crutchfield (great company), but I had to send it back. Playback quality of recorded tapes was sub-standard. I really wanted the Commercial Advance feature and it worked correctly about 60% of the time. The biggest pain was trying to use fast forward to get thru a commercial without continually overshooting. Its too fast! (my old Admiral is two speed and much easier to control). The programming interface is also archaic! Having to use the up/dn keys to set the channel, time, and date is ridiculous. It blows my mind that we've advanced so far with all these features yet their implementation is two steps back from what we had in the past.
