how does the recording play back?

The recording quality is first-rate (at least when I use my Olympus digital recorder). This device will pick up ambient noises also, so if you move a lot and brush the earpiece with your phone or there is activity around you (doors, barking dogs, talking) it will pick that up too.

What I do is play the file i want to record in and as it is playing I hit the record button and what I then record is added to the end of the recording itself. It sounds seamless when it is played back.

The couple of times I accidentally played the recording it was loud and clear. I always download recording to my laptop for listening and storage.

No. The first time you press the record button it starts recording. Press it again and it stops. When you press it again it starts a new file. When you play them back in the camera they will be strung together but when they are loaded into your computer they will be separate files and you will have to use software to make one continuous video.

Yes, it has. You can set that in the play mode menu to repeat the entire recording (loop type). Also you can set specific start ('A') and finish ('B') points to repeat, if you would like so.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I haven't used it very much. I have made a few recordings and they look great. Hope someone else can answer your question for you.

No...Like any other machine, you have to hit play or record with it in the correct mode. The instruction book is very clear.

Yes, its not fun though. The only way to re-record is to clear the memory... and that clears all 5 potential recordings. So make sure you have everything you want to put back on it backed up.

It does record and play back but it uses the old 32 pin plug from the iPhone 4. You may need an adapter but that isn't a guarantee. Sorry.

you can set it to just record on to your computer but you will have to come back when the playing is done.

It's not live. It gets recorded onto the memory card then you transfer it to your computer.

It plays back on your computer, not on your TV. I open Windows Media Center, find the program in the Guide and click the red button to Record. If I'm scheduling a recording at a later time, the program retrieves it, records it, and it is available under Recorded TV. I hope you find it as useful as I do.

Mine has options in the menu for loop recording ("off", "3 min", "5 min", and "10 min"). I have it set to "off". When full it displays an icon that indicates that it's recording over the old footage, but when I go to play back the latest recording it isn't available. I pulled the card to check it on my laptop and

it is a loop recorder, once the memory is full it will start recording over from the beginning

The recorder does have a display of what is being recorded. It can be turned off or on. The same with the audio. You can turn the audio to record or not record. I have it my recorder set to display what is being recorded and the audio set to record. You can't go wrong with this for the price.

NO, it records, but does not function as a player. You will be able to preview what you compose before recording
