♥♥♥♥ Firmware Upgrade Fixes Problem with 16x Media
I've owned the D-R4 since January 2006 and have not experienced any problems when using 4x and 8x speed discs from Maxell and Taiyo-Yuden. I took a chance on the Maxell 16x discs, which were on sale recently at Office Depot, and did have a problem finalizing them. As pointed out by someone else, the D-R4 records to the 16x media fine but gives you an "ERR 14" when finalizing. When I called Toshiba customer service (1-800-319-6684) about this, the rep sent me a firmware upgrade that fixed the problem.

I wish the D-R4 would load discs faster and I wish it could record back-to-back TV shows using the timer without missing the last two minutes of the first show (a quirk that is described in the manual), but overall I like this recorder very much. It does a great job archiving VCR and camcorder tapes. The 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-hour recording modes provide very good quality. Most of the problems mentioned in the reviews can be avoided by buying the recommended 4x and 8x media. Get the firmware upgrade to use 16x media.
