Pioneer Expands Pro DVD Recorder Line
February 14, 2005
Long Beach, CA - The new PRV-9200 professional DVD recorder is now available from Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc.
It features a 160-gigabyte built-in hard disk drive (HDD) and 48X high-speed copying for creation of compliant DVD-Video discs without a computer or authoring software.
DVD-R/DVD-RW discs recorded on the PRV-9200 are highly compatible and can be played back in most DVD players including industrial players, consumer players, in-car systems, portable DVD players, as well as computers, the manufacturer describes.
The recorder allows high-speed copying of content from a DVD-RW disc recorded in video mode to be directly recorded back onto the internal HDD, allowing users to re-purpose content, making edits or changes before recording it to a new DVD-R/DVD-RW disc. Users also can re-encode original HDD recording while making a copy simultaneously to a DVD disc in real time.
Additional product highlights include:
-Extended Recording Times – four optional recording levels offering varying picture quality (Extended Play, Long Play, Standard Play or FINE mode, allowing up to six hours on one DVD-R/DVD-RW media in the extended play mode);
-Convenient Copy Modes – including one-touch copy, copy list management, disc backup and simultaneous high-speed copying and recording/playback;
-Exclusive Disc Backup and Bit-for-Bit Recording – using the HDD, identical discs can be copied at high speeds without the need to recompress the video to another format;
-Chase Play – allows users to simultaneously watch, stop or pause the content while recording;
-Smart Variable Bit Rate Recording (VBR) – lets the user choose or automatically sets the best possible recording quality level suiting the content and project;
-Advanced Disc Navigator – user-friendly menu system for all key functions and options;
-Full Motion Thumbnails with Sound – for simplified previewing, locating and editing material;
-Built-in Tuner – combined with Pioneer’s timer record, allows added flexibility for recording sources and automation;
-Sophisticated Video Playback – featuring PureCinema 2:3 Progressive Scan for more film-like presentation, a full set of connections including component video output for higher quality signal, and a JPEG photo viewer compatible with Fuji and Kodak discs and CD-R/RW discs burned from a PC;
-Superior Audio – built-in Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround Sound outputs and AV D/A converters;
-IEEE-1394/DV Input/Output (i.LINK) – allowing users to record digital component video content from a DV source such as a DV camera, tape deck or DV output from a computer;
-Three-pin AC Power Cable – for simplified connection and use with relevant vertical market components;
-NTSC, PAL/SECAM TV Format Support
The DVD recorder is available for a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $1,025.
