Overview
The IP-HDVR HDTV Tuner-DVR is an integrator-friendly HD tuner and Digital Video Recorder (DVR),
controllable from Ethernet, RS-232, IR, and onboard Web pages. A universal tuner, the IP-HDVR can receive
both ATSC and NTSC broadcasts from twin off-air antenna and cable RF inputs, decode clear-cable digital
QAM channels, as well as control an external analog cable box for subscription-based programming. When
integrating the IP-HDVR via Ethernet, a control system can also communicate with a video display or
projector through the HD tuner’s RS-232 control port.
Featuring a 120 GB hard drive, the IP-HDVR is also a powerful HD DVR, able to schedule recording from its
TV Guide On Screen™ program guide (no monthly fees) or VCR Plus+ codes. The unit can also record and
display digital video from IEEE-1394 ports or upscaled analog video from two AV inputs. In addition, users
can pause and review live programs at their leisure.
The tuner displays HD, SD, and analog broadcasts through Component, RGB, DVI, or composite video/S-
Video outputs. View up to 2-megapixel quality video in 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i modes, in a variety of
aspect ratios. Dolby 5.1 surround sound is available from an optical output, and variable- and fixed-level
stereo audio ports.
