Introduction

DVD Recorder

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is the new storage medium
that combines the convenience of the Compact Disc
with the latest advanced digital video technology.
DVD Video uses state-of-the-art MPEG2 data
compression technology to register an entire movie on a
single 5-inch disc. DVD's variable bitrate compression,
running at up to 9.8 Mbits/second, captures even the
most complex pictures in their original quality.
The crystal-clear digital pictures have a horizontal
resolution of over 500 lines, with 720 pixels (picture
elements) to each line. This resolution is more than
double that of VHS, superior to Laser Disc, and entirely
comparable with digital masters made in recording
studios.
DVD+ReWritable (DVD+RW) is the next step in video
technology. DVD+RW uses phase-change media, the
same technology that formed the basis for
CD-ReWritable. A high-power laser is used to change
the reflectivity of the recording layer. This process can
be repeated more than a thousand times.
Your Philips DVD Recorder is a Recorder and player
for digital video discs, with a two-way compatibility
to the universal DVD Video standard. This means that:
- existing pre-recorded DVD Video discs can play on
your Philips DVD Recorder and
- recordings, made on your Philips DVD Recorder,
can play on existing DVD Video players and DVD-ROM
drives.
