The JVC SR-HD1500US Blu-ray Disc and HDD Recorder is a high-performance professional combo deck that lets you author and record professional HD and SD discs without a computer. Whether you need to edit and copy your own camcorder footage or make copies of unprotected discs, the SR-HD1500US's 500GB hard drive will store your content while you format, edit, or downconvert it to Blu-ray or standard DVD discs.

The unit's multitude of digital inputs means you can ingest footage from camcorders and SD cards in various HD and SD formats, including HDV/DV, AVCHD and MPEG-2. Composite and S-Video inputs, meanwhile, provide backward analog compatibility.

A straightforward, menu-driven interface helps you create projects for a variety of functions, including those requiring auto-start and repeat playback.

    Comments about JVC SR-HD1500US Blu-ray Disc & HDD Recorder:

    The sr-hd1500su does a great job of producing stunning hd dvs. Transferring video to the unit's hard drive from a Sony hdr-fx1000 is simple using the firewire connection;turning out great Blu-ray discs is a snap from there. I am pleased with the ease of operation and the quality of the finished product. The unit is also a splendid Blu-ray player, but will not copy commercial dvds. In short, it does everything I expected by producing high quality high definition dvds. Anyone who makes high-def video (on minidv tape in my case) and wants to view, store and share the results on Blu-ray discs, this item provides a simple, straight forward way to do so. It does rudimentary editing only, but it isn't advertised to do more than that.
