Toshiba D-R5 - DVD recorder with TV tuner - upscaling

Description

Multi-Drive Playback and Recording The D-R5 is designed to record and play back video using DVD-RAM, DVD-R, or DVD-RW recordable discs formats. The DVD-RW format generally fits between them in that it's more widely accepted by players than DVD-RAM though not as easily rewritten. An added benefit of connecting the D-R5 to your television with HDMI is that the unit can "upscale" commercial DVDs, which are rendered at 480p resolution, to a digitally interpolated 720p resolution, which makes for a much sharper picture. It has an auto title/chapter/thumbnail creation feature, but you can create your own titles with the help of an on-screen keyboard. The D-R5 also plays MP3 and WMA files recorded to compatible disc media.. Another benefit of HDMI is that it puts all that information into one cable and one easy-to-use connector. It represents the current state of the art in high-definition video and sound because the information never has to be converted into an analog format. HDMI Compatible High-Definition Multi-media Interface (HDMI) is an interface format that provides uncompressed digital audio and video directly to a digital television. This player is also DivX Home Theater Certified, which means it display popular Internet video formats that have been burned onto a CD, such as DivX, AVI, and MPEG4. Front panel composite and S-video input ports make it easy to record straight from a variety of other video sources, such as a camcorder.
