Product Highlights

• Digital Studio Picture Control

Philips’ Digital Studio Picture Control optimises the playback picture quality. It measures the tape’s performances, adapts the resolution and reduces the picture noise.

You obtain the best possible picture quality on your screen regardless of the tape you use.

• One Touch Recording (OTR)

OTR programmes timer blocks in increments of 30 minutes. Each additional pressing on the record key adds 30 minutes to the block up to a maximum of 8 hours. Push the record button twice to start an OTR recording and select the required duration for the recording. That’s it!

OTR works great in combination with „Direct Record“.
