Helpful Hints

•If you turn off the unit in DVD mode, when you turn it on again, it will be in TV/VCR mode.

•An ‘’X” will appear on the screen when you try to access a feature that is not available. This is not a problem with the TV/VCR/DVD.

•If a Disc is dirty or scratched, the picture may be distorted or play may stop. Remove the Disc and try a different one.

•Press OPEN/CLOSE A (DVD) or PLAY B (DVD) on the front of the TV/VCR/DVD when the power is off. This turns on the unit in DVD mode (not TV/VCR mode).

•If a Disc has multiple layers, the picture may freeze occasionally. This happens when the first layer switches to the second layer. This is not a malfunction.

•Pressing SELECT during Disc play stops Disc play and switches the unit to TV/VCR mode. Pressing PLAY B (VCR) on the front of the unit during Disc play stops Disc play and starts tape play.

27DVCR55S specifications

The Philips 27DVCR55S is a versatile television designed for those who appreciate both the convenience of modern technology and the nostalgia of classic home entertainment. This model features a 27-inch screen, making it a suitable size for various room environments, whether it’s a cozy bedroom, a rustic den, or even a stylish living room.

One of its standout features is the built-in VCR, allowing users to enjoy their collection of VHS tapes seamlessly. This integration bridges the gap between traditional and contemporary viewing habits, catering to those who still cherish old movies and cassette collections. The VCR is designed with ease of use in mind, ensuring simple playback and recording functionality, which can often be a cumbersome process with separate devices.

In terms of display technology, the Philips 27DVCR55S employs a high-quality CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) screen. While many modern TVs lean towards LCD or LED displays, the CRT offers rich color reproduction and deep blacks, making it ideal for viewing older films and shows that benefit from a soft, cinematic look. The viewing angle is commendably wide, ensuring that everyone in the room can enjoy their favorite programs without missing any details.

The television also incorporates a diverse range of connectivity options. It features multiple AV inputs, allowing users to connect DVD players, gaming consoles, and other devices without hassle. The addition of coaxial and composite inputs ensures compatibility with a myriad of devices that consumers might still be using.

Sound quality is another noteworthy aspect of the Philips 27DVCR55S. The integrated speaker system is designed to deliver clear audio, complementing the visual experience nicely. While it may not compete with modern surround sound systems, it offers sufficient performance for casual viewing.

Moreover, the Philips brand is well-known for its commitment to reliable performance and durability. The 27DVCR55S exemplifies this through its robust build quality, ensuring that it can withstand years of use.

In conclusion, the Philips 27DVCR55S is an appealing choice for those looking to enjoy both classic tapes and traditional television viewing. With its integrated VCR, quality CRT display, ample connectivity options, and solid sound system, it offers a nostalgic yet functional home entertainment solution that stands the test of time.
