- Multi-Drive Playback and Recording
Toshiba Multi-Drive DVD recorders are multi-format DVD recorders
designed to provide the greatest flexibility in recording and
playback by supporting DVD-RAM, DVD-R, and DVD-RW* recordable disc
formats. The right format for every application:
- DVD-RAM is the most flexible of the recordable DVD formats when it
comes to recording, editing and playback. Even more, re-record
content approximately 100,000 times!
- DVD-R is a write-once format perfect for sharing treasured video
moments with virtually anyone who has a DVD-Video player.
- DVD-RW can rewrite content up to 1000 times and playback in a wide
variety of computer drives and DVD-Video players.
- HDMI Video Upconversion (720p/1080i)
HDMI can support uncompressed digital video up to HDTV resolution.
Thus the player makes use of this conduit by up-converting the
standard DVD picture resolution of 720p or 1080i. This makes a DVD
player with an HDMI connection the perfect match for todays digital
televisions. And because this conversion is performed in the player,
the signal remains free frome excessive digital to analog artifacts.
- Digital Cinema Progressive (3/2 Pulldown)
Delivers the smoothest, most film-like images to any progressive scan
television, such as an HD-compatible one, and ensures maximum
resolution.

2-month, 32-event timer programming functionality. Users may input
their own program data, or take advantage of the built-in TV Guide On

event programming. Battery Backup ensures that you will not lose your
programming during power outages, and the XDS Auto Clock Set function
ensures you player will never blink 12:00 again.

recording bit rate and allow users to maximize disc space based on
the content to be recorded. (1hr, 2hr, 3hr, 4hr, and 6hr)
- Auto Title/Chapter/Thumbnail Creation
Recorded content remains easy to find with the help of a menu that
will be automatically created when you record. It displays the date
and channel you recorded, along with a thumbnail of your recording by
capturing the first video frame of the recording. The date and
channel can be change to any 64-character title and the thumbnails to
any image within the recording. Chapters within the recording can
also be created by either predetermined intervals, or by the user
selecting specific points within the recording. These chapters can
also be named and assigned a specific thumbnail from any video frame
within the chapter.
- Time Slip, Chase Play and Live Chase Play "Pause Live TV"
Chase Play allows the user to begin watching a recording that is
already in progress. The Live Chase Play feature lets you 'pause' a
live recording and then return to it later. During playback of both
modes, a bar graph can be displayed on-screen depicting the
'progress' or location of the playback signal with regards to the
real time recorded signal.

- HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-
supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video connection. HDMI
provides the best interface between a DVD player and compatible
products, such as a digital television (DTV). When matched with a
compatible TV, this single interconnecting cable combines: Multi-
channel audio, uncompressed digital video, intercommunication between
devices and simple control Protocols. This single cable connection
ensures that all signals remain in their pure digital form and secure
by use of High Definition Copy Protection (HDCP) regardless of signal
output resolution.
- Front Panel A/V & S-Video
There are composite audio & video inputs, as well as RCA L/R inputs
on the front panel of the unit for easy camcorder dubbing. As well,
an S-Video input is also available on the front panel for interfacing
components with this available video output.
- Optical TosLink Digital Audio Outputs
Sends digital audio signals to a receiver. Uses a fiber optic cable
instead of a traditional coaxial cable.
- ColorStream Pro Component Video Output
These outputs allow the video signal to be sent from the DVD player
to a component video equipped interlaced or progressive scan TV. When
this connection is utilized with today's HD-compatible sets, typical
NTSC artifacts-like video noise, dot crawl, and flicker-are virtually
eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed picture with
unequaled color purity.
