Panasonic Code Free Progressive Scan DVD-RAM Recorder, 80GB Hard Drive, Records in PAL/NTSC ALL

Product Code: DMR-E100 Price: Check Latest Panasonic's DMR-E100HS combines two powerful video recording technologies in a single component. It makes ultra-clear, ultra-durable recordings to blank DVD-R and DVD-RAM discs. (It also excels at playing DVD movies in either progressive- or interlaced-scan mode.) But what makes the DMR-E100HS different is its built-in 80GB hard drive — it can store up to 26 hours of video in the highest-quality XP mode (with virtually zero loss in picture quality), or a whopping 160 hours of video in EP mode! This is one of the most versatile video recorders we've ever seen. You can record from the hard drive to DVD-RAM or DVD-R, or from DVD-RAM to the hard drive. Using the Play List function you can rearrange the sequence of video segments on the hard drive before recording to disc. Preserving family videos and personal movie libraries just got a lot easier. Think of the possibilities! The DMR-E100HS expands on the terrific performance and features of Panasonic's DMR-E80H DVD/hard disk recorder by increasing the hard disk recording capacity by 50%, and adding some great capabilities for personal video. It includes two front-panel slots, one for PC Card and one for SD Card, that let you view digital photos in JPEG or TIFF format on a TV screen, or easily store them to DVD-RAM discs without having to connect a PC. It also adds a DV input (i.LINK), which makes it easy to record directly from a digital camcorder onto a disc. Save shelf space by archiving your precious home movies on DVDs (no more worries about tape failure, either). With a built-in TV tuner, clock/timer, and VCR Plus+®, the DMR-E100HS has the familiar recording capabilities found on most VCRs. For example, the Auto Renewal Recording feature lets you automatically record a favorite show every day or every week. But this deck also includes many advanced recording and playback options no VCR can match. Check this out: If you're recording to a DVD disc and run out of space, the DMR-E100HS automatically begins "relief recording" onto the hard drive! Jump directly to any spot on a DVD-RAM disc and begin playing or recording immediately. Time Slip® playback lets you watch the beginning of a recorded program while the same show is finishing recording! You can record one program while watching another program you've previously recorded. A handy control on the remote lets you search through recorded segments quickly and precisely. For optimum picture detail and accuracy, the DMR-E100HS features Hybrid VBR (variable bit rate) recording. This technology monitors the incoming signal and automatically dedicates more data to scenes that need it. When transferring video from analog sources (like a VCR) to DVD, time base correction and a 3D digital comb filter actually improve image quality. And during playback, three different types of digital noise reduction combine to provide image clarity that will surprise you.
