That sucks .I seen the great show on Youtube awhile back.

I wonder if they all from the same source with a bad batch .

I bet the VHS version of FM still plays.

Thats true too.My Panasonic DVD recorder sometimes gets fussy but the Lite On recorder is very fussy what I feed it.It reminds me of VHS tapes that play differently because of out of aligned VCRs.
