Time Slip Recording and Playback
Allows you to record programs ahead of your availability. It then allows you to play back the missed part while recording the next segment of the program. You can also pause live TV at a certain moment and come back later to watch from the same moment. Instant replay of TV programming is also possible.
Progressive Scan Component Video Output
Use D-R5's component-video output to feed high-quality video signal to your TV. If your TV supports the more stable and flicker-free progressive scan, image quality is further enhanced due to higher resolution (compared to interlaced video).

Your TV can now display video programs originally shot on 24 frames per second, which includes most film-based content.
Auto Title/Chapter/Thumbnail Creation
Manage your video content with the help of a menu that is created when you record. The menu displays the channel and date, as well as a thumbnail of your video content. In addition to assigning a 64-character title, you can also create chapters, either at predetermined intervals or at specific points you determine within your recording.
