Progressive scan compatibility

To allow viewing of flicker-free, high-resolution pictures on a compatible TV, DVD video signals can be output as progressive signals via component

connection. Conversely, S-VHS video signals can also be output as progressive signals via the

DVD recording circuit during dubbing mode.

S-VHS digital technologies

The S-VHS deck on the SR-MV55 features several advanced digital technology features.

Time Base Corrector (TBC) removes jitter to produce a more stable picture even when old tapes are used.

Luminance (Y) and chroma (C) signals are separated precisely by 3D Digital Y/C Separation to suppress cross-color noise and dot-interference.

3D YNR/CNR improves the S/N ratio of luminance and chroma signals.

2MB frame memory for high-quality still pictures and slow motion.

Digital and analog audio

Dolby Digital 2ch and Linear PCM (XP mode) digital recording are enabled on the DVD-recorder, while the S-VHS deck can record in VHS Hi-Fi audio format.

Crystal-clear playback

Playback quality can be improved on multi- generation tapes or tapes created on different VCRs by using the Tape Level Up and Intelligent Picture functions.
