Unable to record/dvd recorder problems mwr20v6 phillips

I have a phillips magnavox mwr20v6 dvd recorder w/vhs recorder. when I first got this 6 months ago I recorded twice on it and it worked fine. I have not recorded since I got this and tried today but get an error message e 4 5403900 or e21 I even put in the ones I had recorded on previously and was able to watch what was on them but it would not let me overwrite or erase keeps saying unable to record. I took the cover off and got all the dust out and tried cleaning the eye but still no luck except my dvd's are loading quicker now and playing better. Any solutions???? thank you.

I've had the exact same problem, only my error code was: E-454037380. I just made DVD copies a couple months ago with no problems....now it won't let me record anything. Forget about calling the 800 number for support. All he could tell me was try a different DVD or maybe shop for another one! I paid a good deal of money for this less than 2 years ago and now find out it's worth ****! I will never again buy this brand name and I would advise others to follow!

Recording dvd's

As long as the tapes do not have a copy gaurd on them they should record to the dvd. Home moves, tv shows that were recorded or unprotected tapes can also be dubbed.
