Philips introduceert binnenkort de DVD-recorder

In een persbericht meldt Philips dat zij in september de DVDR1000 DVD-recorder zal introduceren op de IFA 2001 Consumer Electronics Show in Berlijn. Deze standalone speler maakt gebruik van de DVD+RW standaard voor het opnemen van DVD's. Het apparaat werkt volgens Philips vergelijkbaar met een gewone videorecorder, behalve dan dat de beeld- en geluidskwaliteit uiteraard superieur zijn. De opgenomen DVD-RW's kunnen op iedere DVD-speler worden afgespeeld:

Next to easy recording, the DVDR1000 also makes playback a much richer and more convenient experience than with conventional video recorders. Best of all, the easy-to-use disc navigation features with Index Pictures make it very quick and simple to find any desired recording or available free space on a disc. For quick review of disc contents, a DVD title menu is automatically created when a disc is first recorded, and is updated every time a new recording is added or the disc contents are modified in any way. The menu and key frames are part of the disc, which means that the menu and key frames will also be displayed when watching the recordings on a DVD Video player.

Matching the quality levels of different video sources, the DVDR1000 has a choice of four recording levels: High Quality, equivalent to studio-quality digital video masters; Standard Play, equivalent to normal DVD-Video digital quality; Long Play, for better than S-VHS video quality; and Extended Play for extra-long recording times at a quality level still superior to that of standard VHS recordings. These four recording levels give recording times of 1, 2, 3 or 4 hours, respectively, on a single rewritable DVD disc. All levels can be mixed freely on a disc, so users can choose the optimum recording level every time they make a recording. The right level is automatically selected on playback in a DVD-Video player.
