Philips DVD Recorder, DCVD+RW, I-Link, up to 8 hours recording, 4 record speeds, DVD+R/DVD+RW, CD, CD-RWAmazon Product Description High on convenience, low on hassles, Philips’ DVDR615 progressive-scan DVD player/recordergives you a simple way to share your home videos with others, relieve your VCR of its regular TV taping duties, and enjoy quality home cinema presentations on standard or high-definition televisions. Using the model’s extensive inputs–including an i.Link digital video jack–you can transfer and assemble your most treasured camcorder footage, archive all your old video tapes, or burn video from your PC straight to high-capacity DVD–up to an amazing 8 hours per disc side using either DVD+R or rewritable DVD+RW.

The DVDR615 features progressive-scan technology, which enables compatible TVs to display images at double the frequency of standard TVs, minimizing flicker and making the picture easier on your eyes.

The DVDR615 also features a disc manager that allows instant viewing of all recorded discs, storing contents details for up to 9,000 titles across up to 999 discs. You can also use the DVDR615 like a VCR, burning televised programs directly to disc using VCR Plus+ simplified programming. Recording functions include favorite scene selection, automatic/manual chapter marker insertion, selectable index pictures, selectable background picture, append, divide, and “fit to space.”

DVD+RW discs require no finalizing–you can record, eject, and play them with minimal fuss, thanks to “background formatting.” This feature, which lowers total burning time, is an advantage over the “dash” formats. Other DVD+RW advantages include on-disc content editing and multisession writing. And, through DVD+RW and DVD+R’s compatibility with most existing DVD players, they’re a great way for you to share your special memories with family and friends.

But the DVDR615 is also a first-rate DVD player, featuring progressive-scan video outputs, Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround sound passthrough, MP3 CD playback (CD-R/CD-RW), and compatibility with most DVD media (including video-mode DVD-R and DVD-RW).

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you’re merely thinking of “someday,” the DVDR615 stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. 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.

Top-of-the-line interlaced component-video inputs and outputs (the output is switchable with the progressive-scan output) help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts from component-video sources and on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video inputs and outputs bring compatibility with nearly any video component and television monitor. Audio inputs consist of 2-channel analog jacks with 24-bit/96 kHz analog-to-digital conversion and Dolby Digital 2.0 audio compression (compression is non-defeatable). Video conversion, to and from digital, is performed by high-quality 10-bit, 54 MHz converters.

Two sets 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.

What’s in the Box
DVD recorder, remote control, remote batteries, a user’s manual (English/Spanish), a quick-install guide, an AC power cord, a stereo analog audio interconnect, a composite-video cable, and an RF coaxial/antenna cable.

    All of Philips DVD recorders tend to work OK for a few months before numerous problems arise. The DVD recorder is then virtually useless. Therefore, if you purchased this Philips DVD recorder, please wait 6 months before posting a review.

    I have experienced all of the issues that the other Negative reviewers have had with their recorders. In fact my DVDR drive has gone out 1 month out of warranty. It gets disk error’s. I should have bought the Sony, In fact I just replaced this POS with the Sony RDR GX300, So far I have been pleased as will all my Sony products.

    The most incredibly difficult to use on screen menu system. Absolutely the least intuitive DVD recorder you can buy. You will spend 10 minutes just inserting a disc and starting playback. Whomever designed this DVD recorder may have run a concentration camp during WWII. Took it back after spending an hour trying to get it running.

    We have owned this for around three years and finally can’t take it anymore. I agree with the other reviewers that it is junk with all the same problems they expressed.

    The unit is nice looking but the product is buggy. The company offered no support…the 800 phone number is out of service, no response on chat line or to mumerous emails. It is hard to beleive that a big name company like Philips would totally ignore their customer.
