Strengths: plays everything

Weaknesses: doesn't completely finish playing a DVD made from another DVD recorder

Summary: my old DVD recorder went on the fritz so I bought a new LG RC797T.I made hundreds of DVD's from music to kids growing up that play on the LG but from another DVD player/Recorder and if you have several things on the same DVD the LG will play the first thing but will not automatically go to the second recording it'll basically stop and you manually have to go to the second recording.Other than that it's a basic DVD player and recorder combo, over priced for what it doesn't do.
