KEY FEATURES

DIGITAL VIDEO RECORDER

TECHNOLOGY & BENEFITS

VIDEO

Multi-Drive Recorder - This DVD recorder is designed to provide the greatest flexibility in recording and playback by supporting DVD-RAM, DVD-R, and DVD-RW* recordable disc formats. The right format for every application:

· DVD-RAM is the most flexible of the recordable disc formats when it comes to recording, editing and playback. Even more, re-record content approximately 100,000 times!

· DVD-R is a write-once format perfect for sharing treasured video moments with virtually anyone who has a DVD-Video player.

· DVD-RW* can rewrite content up to 1000 times and playback in a wide variety of computer drives and DVD-Video players

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.

AUDIO

MP3 Playback - Recordable Compact Discs (CD-R & CD-RW) with music stored in MP3 file formats can be enjoyed.

CONVENIENCE

Bi-Direction Dubbing - A convenient way to transfer content from a VHS tape to DVD or DVD content to VHS. Dubbing from VHS to DVD provides the capability of either transferring the entire tape, or transfer multiple individual segments by programming the time codes through the use of an on-screen menu.

Time Slip - This feature allows the user to begin watching a recording that is already in progress. A PIP function can be used to monitor the live recording in relation the playback.

Front Panel A/V & IEEE1394DV Inputs - There are composite audio & video inputs, as well as S-Video input on the front panel of the unit for easy camcorder dubbing. Additionally, an IEEE1394 'Firewire' jack is also available on the front panel for interfacing compatible digital video camcorders. Provides automatic recognition of the device and on-screen menu controls to easily direct the "downloading" process with the recorder’s remote control.

VCR Plus®+ Timer Recording - The unit features a 181channel cable compatible tuner and a 1-month, 12-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.
