Does anyone know how I can identify which universal remotes will work
with my Panasonic VHS/DVD recorder please?

It takes an EUR7721X10 which I need to do something called FINISHing
off the DVD-R recordings. I called Panasonic and someone there told
me that I cant make recordings with this unit and finish them off on a
computer using Toast or some DVD recording program which finishes off
the DVDs once recorded.

Is this last bit true or can I press RECORD and then finish the
recordings off on a computer? Panasonic also say you cant use
anything other than DVD-R or DVD-RAM (if that format still exists)
whereas users seem to report that they can successfully use DVD-RW and
DVD+R or DVD+RW
