Mustek R-100A DVD Recorder

Hello All, I have been gifted this item brand new and boxed. When it works its really quite good. I say "When" because everything is very slow to respond i.e. open/close button sometimes works sometimes doesnt. The remote control is a real hit and miss job, any button seeming to work only once in a dozen presses. There is obviously something fundamentally wrong with the unit. I used to run a TV/Video repair workshop 20 years ago, so I have some skills in repair. Does anyone know any common problems with this item? Maybe a basic design flaw etc., also does anyone know if there are any circuit diagrams available?. I know that a lot of the new far-east sourced stuff these days doesnt have any. BTW sending the unit back where it came from is not an option as it was bought in an auction. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Roy - the old guy.

I don't know about that. I got a Panasonic that does the same things, if it makes you feel better.

All of these low cost units have performance and mechanical problems. I would not put too much effort in to this type of unit.
