Magnavox MRV700R DVD Player/Recorder and VCR Combo

You can also time-shift your TV viewing, using the unit's programmable timer to schedule programs to record on either VHS tape or DVD, depending on your priorities. The MRV700R stores up to 6 hours of audio and video on a single-sided recordable DVD at varying quality levels, from sub-VHS quality to VHS/S-VHS quality, DVD quality, and full DV quality.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the MRV700R stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs during playback. 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.

The MRV700R also performs 3:2 pulldown detection. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

The unit's front panel sports a set of inputs for your temporary or spontaneous A/V connections. A set 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 coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.
