Description:
With its VCR-like ability to record, its crystalline MPEG-2 video encoding, and its progressive-scan video output, the RCA DRC8005N DVD player/recorder is a pro at both of its primary functions. You can record your favorite television shows and home videos straight to a DVD, cleaning up aged video footage in the process. With the unit's convenient one-touch record feature, capturing off-air programs is simpler than ever. The DRC8005N records in six modes, storing 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 hours of audio/video programming on 4.7 GB recordable DVD+R (write-once) or DVD+RW (rewritable) media. And, when using timed recording, the DRC8005N can automatically set its quality level to the best that its available hard-drive space will allow. Time-base correction and digital noise reduction optimize incoming signals as their being written to disc. The "RW" format offers numerous advantages. These discs can be played in most computer DVD-ROM drives and DVD players, and they let you append, edit, and overwrite video right on the discs themselves. This means you can record video using the DRC8005N and record data with a PC drive, all on the same disc. There's only one recording mode for both video and data, and the finalization time for a DVD+R is the fastest of all DVD formats. Special features include title and chapter creation for easy access to recorded materials; chapter hide/unhide, which lets you skip playback of selected sections of a recording; text title labeling; user-selectable disc write and title-write protection, and quick disc erase. Recorded discs will play on most DVD players, and the unit itself plays all types of DVD and audio CD. More than just a recording device, however, the DRC8005N is also a first-rate media player, offering MP3 music file decoding and Digital PhotoView, which displays JPEG files (from recordable CDs only) in a rotating slide show format--with MP3 playback during the slide show! A USB input lets you hook up a flash card reader enjoying digital photos and MP3 files right off your card--no need to first commit the files to CD. The recorder also offers progressive-scanning when playing back prerecorded DVDs. Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DRC8005N is equipped to deliver the full potential of prerecorded DVDs. Progressive scanning, called 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The DRC8005N features Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround sound passthrough, SRS TruSurround simulated surround sound, and connections include 1 set of component-video outputs, an S-video input and output (2 inputs, 1 output), composite-video input and output (2 in, 1 out), stereo (left/right) analog audio in and out (2 in, 1 out), and a pair of digital-audio outputs (one each optical and coaxial).
