Toshiba D-R5 - DVD recorder with TV tuner - upscaling

Description

It lists five recording modes with trade-offs between time capacity and video quality. The DVD-RW format generally fits between them in that it's more widely accepted by players than DVD-RAM though not as easily rewritten. It represents the current state of the art in high-definition video and sound because the information never has to be converted into an analog format. With the Toshiba D-R5, you get all of the recording versatility of a high-end VCR and the convenience of a progressive-scan DVD player. It even delivers some of the best functions of a DVR. An added benefit of connecting the D-R5 to your television with HDMI is that the unit can "upscale" commercial DVDs, which are rendered at 480p resolution, to a digitally interpolated 720p resolution, which makes for a much sharper picture. DVD-R is a disc type to which content can only be written once, but it is also the most widely accepted format by other players, so it's ideal for recording and sharing home movies. MULTI DRIVE DVD RECORDER DVD players are preferred over VCRs because of their ease of use and their quick access to content without fast-forwarding or rewinding. Another benefit of HDMI is that it puts all that information into one cable and one easy-to-use connector. The D-R5 also plays MP3 and WMA files recorded to compatible disc media.. Still, many who have left VHS behind miss the ability to record their favorite content. The D-R5 provides a range of recording options.
