This is a Panasonic Blu-ray recorder from 2013. Occasionally, a 1-hour program will only record for about 15 minutes. It's somewhat unpredictable. It usually records properly. DVD playback works without any problems. Regarding the remote control, the TV power button (the square red button), the recording list button, and the 30-second skip button don't work. There might be other issues as well. To display the recording list, you can access it from the start button.
