Pioneer Comprehensive Guide to the DVR 630H DVD Recorder Features

14Additional information

PureCinema

Video on a DVD disc may be either video material (originally shot on video) or film material (originally shot on film). Video material has a frame rate of 30 frames/ second, compared to 24 frames/second for film. This recorder converts film material to 60 frames/second (in progressive scan mode). PureCinema adjusts the picture so that it matches more closely the picture quality of a cinema screen.

You can see whether video on a DVD disc is film or video material by displaying the transfer rate. If a ‘#’ appears above the transfer rate display, it is film material.
