Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Okay, for the money it has a pretty awesome set of features! Trouble is, it's really unreliable. By all accounts what happen to me is pretty common! If you're as unlucky as me you'll burn a slew of coasters alongside your good recordings and then after 95 days it'll just burn out completely! The Goods news is, if it burns out within 90 days Coby will send you a new machine free of charge (or for $31 at any time after 90 days)because they don't repair. The bad news is they no longer make the 1100 and you get a free upgrade to a 1200! By all accounts the 1200 is more reliable, but, with an inferior spec. It has less imputs/outputs, including no optical output, and only has 2 channel sound capability, instead of the 5.1 available with the 1100.
...BUT apparently Coby are going to reintroduce a new (reliable) 1100 later this year? So.. if you have one, you can do like me, stick your crapped 1100 in a cupboard and watch their website and then send your $31 dollars, once the new 1100 is introduced!

Coby's affordable DVD-R1100 makes component DVD recording easier than ever. The player/recorder offers one-button recording and a host of connections, including composite- and S-video inputs, an RF antenna/VCR input, and front-panel jacks for easy hookups with your camcorder, VCR, or other audio/video component. The front connections even include a DV input for direct digital hookup with a camcorder or computer feed. The unit's built-in tuner lets you record right off the air for convenient, time-shifted viewing of your favorite TV programs.The DVD-R1100 records on DVD+R (write-once) and DVD+RW (rewritable) media. DVD+RW discs require no finalizing--you can record, eject, and play them with minimal fuss, thanks to "background formatting." This feature, which lowers total burning time, is an advantage over the "dash" formats.As a player, the DVD-R1100 offers compatibility with NTSC or PAL sources (with appropriate media and monitoring), DVD-R and DVD-RW discs, MP3 CD playback for your homemade music mixes (be aware, though: there's no ID3 tag recognition for artist and title information display), and even progressive-scan component-video outputs for a seamless, flicker-free image on high-definition and HD-ready TVs.Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (1 each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.An onscreen display simplifies player/recorder setup and operation, and the unit comes with a full-function remote control.What's in the Box DVD player/recorder, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.
