Sylvania´s four-head VCR features VHS recording and playback, a 1-year, 8-event programmable recording timer with one-touch timer recording, and onscreen menu display. This VCR´s four head design results in greater picture quality than VCRs with just two heads, and its automatic head cleaners remove dirt and contaminants every time you insert or remove a cassette, particularly beneficial if you view rented movies.*************************CONSUMER ALERT: This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009 to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the U.S."s transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.
