Philips DVDR77 DVD Recorder Overview
The Philips DVDR77 DVD Recorder lets you easily record from your Camcorder, Digital Camera, Memory card or using the built-in tuner straight from TV. It uses DVD+RW recording technology that allows you to record from television, VHS tapes and digital camcorders on to a DVD, and re-record over 1,000 times. DVD+RW is the most compatible and widely supported format in the industry. Also known as DVD+ReWritable, DVD+RW (¿plus¿ RW) is a Re-Writable DVD Recording format that is compatible with most existing DVD Players and DVD-ROM drives. DVD+R is a ¿write once¿ DVD recording format.
Philips DVDR77 DVD Recorder Specifications
Amazon Product Description Philips' sleek DVDR77 DVD player/recorder lets you share your home videos withothers, relieve your VCR of its regular TV taping duties, and enjoy quality home theater on standard or high-definition televisions. Digital media fans will relish the unit's front-panel PCMCIA input, which reads image files from a range of media cards, including Memory Stick, Compact Flash, SD card, Smart Media, and Micro Drive. Got a DV camcorder, too? The unit's extensive inputs include an i.Link digital video jack, through which you can transfer and assemble your most treasured footage, archive all your old videotapes, or burn video from your PC straight to high-capacity DVD--up to six hours per disc side using either DVD+R or DVD+RW.
The DVDR77 features progressive-scan technology, which allows compatible TVs to display images at double the frequency of standard TVs, minimizing flicker and making the picture easier on your eyes.
| You can also use the DVDR77 like a VCR, burning televised programs directly to disc using the handy VCR Plus+ onscreen TV program guide. Recording functions include the ability to record picture DVDs (which hold up to 3,600 pictures), safe record, one-touch record (OTR), track append, track divide, track erase, automatic/manual chapter marker insertion, disc write protection, favorite scene selection, index picture screen (for instant content overview), and Selectable Index Pictures. DVD+RW discs require no finalizing--you can record, eject, and play them with minimal fuss, thanks to "background formatting." This feature, which lowers total burning time, is an advantage over the "dash" formats. Other DVD+RW advantages include on-disc content editing and multisession writing.

And, because of DVD+RW and DVD+R's compatibility with most existing DVD players, they're a great way for you to share your special memories with family and friends. The unit's Virtual Time Base Corrector ensures better-than-original copies from old video tapes.
The DVDR77 is also a first-rate DVD player, featuring progressive-scan video outputs, Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound passthrough, MP3 CD playback (CD-R/CD-RW), and compatibility with most DVD media (including video-mode DVD-R and DVD-RW).
Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVDR77 stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 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.
Top-of-the-line component-video inputs and outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video inputs and outputs bring compatibility with nearly any video component and television monitor. Audio inputs consist of two-channel analog jacks with 16-bit analog-to-digital conversion and Dolby Digital 2.0 audio compression (compression is nondefeatable).
Two sets of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. If you don't have a surround receiver or six-channel speaker setup, you can still make every movie night the ultimate experience: 3D Sound simulates surround sound through two speakers (even the stereo speakers on your TV).
What's in the Box
DVD player/recorder, remote control, remote batteries, RCA cables, and a user's manual.
