Overview

DVD, DVD+R, DVD+RW? Dual Media

What is a DVD?

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is a storage medium that combines the convenience of the compact disc with the latest digital video technology. DVD video uses modern MPEG2 data compression technology that enables an entire feature film to be stored on a single five inch disc.

How good is the resolution of DVD compared with VHS?

The razor-sharp digital images have more than 500 lines of resolution at 720 pixels per line. This is more than twice as high as VHS and even better than laser disc quality. DVD picture quality is easily comparable to the digital masters produced in recording studios.

What is a DVD+RW?

DVD+ReWritable uses Ôphase changeÕ media, the same technology on which rewritable CDs are based. A high-performance laser is used to change the reflective properties of the recording layer; this process can be repeated more than a thousand times.

Remark :

A DVD Recorder that supports Ôdual mediaÕ recording allows DVD+RW format recording (+VR) on either DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW media. Any editing feature that is available with the +RW logical format is available on any of the media types. This system allows the flexibility for the consumer to use any of the above media formats for recording in the same system. Since the +VR format is DVD-Video compatible, the consumer can take any disk recorded on this platform and should be capable of playing it back on the majority of DVD players on the market.

What is a DVD+R?

Unlike a DVD+RW disc, a DVD+R (write-once DVD) can only be written to once. If it is not finalised after a recording, further recordings can be added to it. Old recordings can be deleted but they can no longer be overwritten. The deleted recordings (titles) are marked 'deleted title'.

Before a DVD+R can be played in a DVD player, it must be finalised in the DVD Recorder + VCR. Once this process is complete, no further recordings can be added.

Regional code

If the region number on your DVD disc does not correspond to the region number of this player, the disc cannot be played.

What can I do with my DVD Recorder + VCR?

Your DVD Recorder + VCR is a machine for recording and playing back digital video discs with Ôtwo-wayÕ compatibility with the universal DVD video standard. This means:

¥existing DVD video discs can be played on the recorder.

¥recordings made on your DVD Recorder + VCR can be played on other DVD video players and DVD-ROM drives.
