This is a recorder and monitor set. Everything in the photos is included. Playback works, and the picture displays without issue. Both units are missing their remote controls. Recorder (made in 2002) Monitor (made in 2005, 13-inch) Fast forward and rewind functions work without problems. The monitor has some minor surface stains (likely due to age). I checked for dead pixels and didn't see any, but there might be some. An HDMI adapter and a 5-meter cable are also included. You can watch on your home TV. I don't smoke or have pets, so I believe there are no odors. Thank you.
