Technology & Benefits
Super Multi-Drive Recorder
DVD-RAM is a high-capacity, high-performance optical disk that allows data to be 
read, written, and erased more than 100,000 times. It is designed to work exactly 
like a floppy disk, allowing users to copy and delete files from it and use it to run 
programs. DVD-R discs are write-once media that are currently compatible with most 
DVD-Video players sold today. The D-R1 also offers additional flexibility with 
rewritable DVD-RW media used in some personal computer drives.
- Built-in DVD-R capability offers compatibility with virtually all 
DVD-Video players.
- Record up to 8 hours of programming using a double-sided 9.4GB  
DVD-RAM disc.
ColorStream Pro
Component Video Outputs
These outputs allow the highest quality video signal to be sent from the DVD player 
to a component video equipped progressive scan TV. When this connection is utilized 
with today's HD-compatible sets, typical NTSC artifacts—like video noise, dot crawl, 
and flicker—are virtually eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed 
picture with unequaled color purity.
Digital Cinema Progressive (3:2 Pulldown)
Delivers the smoothest, most film-like images to any progressive scan television, such 
as an HD-compatible one, and ensures maximum resolution.
Auto Title/Chapter/Thumbnail Creation
When recording, the D-R1 automatically captures the first video frame and displays it 
as the chapter mark. Users can then choose to designate chapter marks with custom 
screen captures, or Thumbnails, of their own choice for future reference.
(E.A.M.) Enhanced Audio Mode
This feature includes three modes:NORMAL(off mode), 3-D (virtual surround sound 
enhancement from multichannel content), and DIALOGUE Expander (which enhances 
center channel [dialogue] frequencies during playback of multichannel content). 
Benefit of DIALOGUE: Great for “late night” listening when volume levels are low 
but dialogue intellibibility is of concern.
QSound™ Virtual Surround Sound
Provides a simulated surround sound effect from sources that contain only a stereo 
soundtrack. Convenient when playing older DVD films or for use with home theaters 
not equipped with multi-channel playback compatibility.
Coaxial & TosLink
Digital Audio Outputs
Sends the audio signal to an audio/video receiver in its digital form allowing access 
to the Dolby Digital
/DTStrack encoded on the DVD disc.
Time Slip
This feature allows the user to begin watching a recording that is already in progress. 
A Time Slip feature lets you 'pause' a live recording and then return to it later. 
During playback of both modes, a bar graph can be displayed on-screen depicting 
the 'progress' or location of the playback signal with regards to the real time recorded signal.
Front Panel A/V & IEEE1394DV Inputs
There are composite audio & video inputs, as well as RCA L/R inputs on the front 
panel of the unit for ease of camcorder dubbing. Additionally, an IEEE1394 'Firewire' 
jack is also available from the front panel for interfacing compatible digital video 
camcorders.
VCR Plus+™ Timer Recording
The DR-1 features a 181-channel cable compatible tuner and a 2-month, 32-event 
timer programming functionality. Users may input their own program data, or take 
advantage of the built-in Gemstar VCR+ technology for simple timer event programming. Battery Backup ensures that you will not lose your programming during power 
outages, and the XDS Auto Clock Set function ensures you player will never blink 
12:00 again.
Create Custom Play Lists
The D-R1 allows the user to generate and save custom playlists using any titles 
and/chapters. Each compilation of desired footage can be separately titled and edited (for removal of commercials or other unwanted sections) and then seamlessly 
played back for review.
