Latest 6 Reviews Here is what people are saying about the Neuros MPEG-4 Recorder 2 Digital Video Recorder
"Works well, picture not that great."

This recorder is great. It works well & does what it says it will do.
The picture is not the greatest on my Sony PSP, but I'm not complaining. I record in the "Superfine" mode and it comes out good... but not nearly as good as when you purchase a movie or TV show on the PSP network and transfer it from the PS3 to the PSP.
The on-screen menu is pretty bad - but at least there is one (unlike some cheaper recorders) and it works fine. I do like how they have the remaining/total MB display so you can see what's left on the memory card.
All-in-all, it was WELL worth the $70 spent.

Gotta admit I was truly excited when the Neuros MPEG4 Video Recorder 2 finally arrived. I actually found more value in my Palm Treo 650 smartphone. Yes, I can now watch my favorite movies while be mobile. That when I found I hit one those solutions unresolved... Since I use SD cards for extended memory I needed to get a SD/MMC CF Adapter, very hard to find since most locate Computer Stores are no longer brick and mortar(I ordered one through Amazon as well).
Once you do everything up running the process is really simple. As you're recording you can preview the playback on the TV. Great resolution and audio.
The same though does not hold true for the playback on my Palm Treo. You'll need to download the TCPMP Core drivers for playback and audio (does not work with the Real Player software). Once loaded there is an error message, "Player: MPEG4 AAC Audio decorder not included! It was ermoved from the official install package because of intellectual property considerations".
So now I'm thinking maybe I should have gotten the Neuros MPEG4 Video Recorder 2 Plus, maybe they've worked out the audio decoder matters.
I find this unit not very reliable for recording - the flimsy 1/8" connectors for A/V on the back cause video to come and go and I have to jiggle it to get a picture for recording - them sometime in the middle of recording it'll move just enough and leave me with a blank video screen with audio. OR I'll get the video channels but one of the audio channels will be off - just the left channel is recorded.
Additionally on the highest level of Quality (TV mode) the video compression is still poor and very blocky - I was expecting much higher quality at this setting then I get.
If you're considering buying this I recommend considering instead a A/V capture card for your computer - which should not have the flimsy connectors to it to cause you grief.
Does the MPEG-4 Recorder 2 need a technical makeover, i.e becoming the Recorder 3? Yes. Are there errors in the instruction manual that can confuse the new user? Yes. Is the tiny remote easy to lose, transforming the Recorder 2 into an expensive paperweight? Yes. Is the remote one of those horrendous membrane type remotes without real buttons or tactile feedback to the user? Yes. But....
The Recorder 2 reminds me of the first VCR's; a new technology with a clumsy interface. But just like the first VCR's, it is so much fun to use! It gives us so much power to record the content that we want and to watch it when and WHERE we want. Before the Recorder 2, I burned TV shows onto a DVD and then ripped the content into MP4 files on my PC and then transferred them to PSP and IPod. Obviously, an extended process. The Recorder 2 does all this directly in one step and I never have the audio/video synchronization problem that I sometimes have with ripped files.
But the learning curve is a little steep and that may scare off new users, especially since the manual has numerous errors. A prime example is in the Recording Video section of the manual (page 24), selecting Resolution. Resolution is Neuros' word for the video recording parameters. Settings like length of recording, quality of the recording, timer recording, manual recording, Little things that a user might want to access!
The manual states to "Highlight the record section and press to access the Record Menu." Well, the new user can press all they want, that Record Menu isn't going to show up. There is another button on the remote that looks like stacked file folders, THAT button accesses the Record Menu. The correct information is buried elsewhere in the manual.
So should a person buy the Recorder 2? Maybe, as long as they don't expect DVR ease and functionality. The interface reminds me of programs from the nineties and it really needs updating. But for the person who really wants portable video content and is willing to work a little (the Neuros user forums are very helpful), the Neuros Recorder 2 can be a great machine.
