Welcome to the growing family of owners of PHILIPS equipment.
Thank you for buying a DVDR 70/001-70/021 .
Please take the time to read this operating manual before using your DVD recorder. It contains
important information on how to set up and operate the machine.
The video recorder should not be turned on immediately after transportation from a
cold to a hot area or vice versa, or in conditions of extreme humidity.
Wait at least three hours after transporting the machine. The DVD recorder needs this time
to acclimatise to its new environment (temperature, relative humidity, etc.).
Your Philips team hopes your
new DVD recorder will bring you
many years of enjoyment.
What is a DVD?
DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is a new storage medium that combines the
convenience of the compact disc with the latest digital video technology. DVD
video uses modern MPEG2 data compression technology that enables an
entire feature film to be stored on a single five inch disc.
How good is the resolution of DVD compared with VHS?
The razor-sharp digital images have a resolution of more than 500 lines of 720
pixels per line. This is more than twice as high as VHS and is even better than
the laser disc. Its picture quality is easily comparable to the digital masters
produced in recording studios.
What can DVD+RW do?
DVD+ReWritable uses phase change media, the same technology on which
rewritable CDs are based. A high-performance laser is used to change the
reflective properties of the recording layer; this process can be repeated more
than a thousand times.
What can the DVD+R do?
DVD+R (write-once DVD). Unlike a DVD+RW disc, this disc can only be
written to once. If it is not finalized after a recording, further recordings can
be added to it. Old recordings can be deleted but can no longer be
overwritten. The deleted titles are marked 'Deleted title'.
Before this disc can be played in a DVD player, it must be finalised in the
DVD recorder. Once this process is complete, no further recordings can be
added.
What can my DVD recorder do?
Your Philips DVD recorder is a machine for recording and playing back digital
video discs with "two-way" compatibility with the universal DVD video
standard. This means:
•) existing DVD video discs can be played on the recorder.
•) Recordings made on your DVD recorder can be played on other DVD
video players and DVD ROM drives.
