Review: I too have tried the LiteON 5005 and 5006.
I too returned them both because of the faults they have and decided to try out a Philips DVDR610. I am glad I did.
This unit is excellent.
The picture quality is superb. Even the 6 & 8hr modes give results comparable to VHS tape.
The unit is whisper quiet. Plays all the discs I can throw at it and looks like a quality piece of kit.
It can be made Region Free easily.
The drawbacks are: No DV input (the DVDR615 has it) & slightly fiddly remote/menu system although it makes sense after a while.
The clock problem has been fixed. It was a faulty batch.
Buy with confidence. I've just sold my S-VHS deck, Time Base Corrector and Capture card i'm so impressed with the quality of this product. (meaning i know a poor picture from a good one!) Tapes capture to disc easily and perfectly.
At this price point you will be hard pressed to find a rival.
Lost a star for the fiddly remote only.
