Recordable DVD Media
Record your favorite shows onto DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW, and DVD-RAM DVD discs. The DMR-ES15 is also compatible with DVD+R Double layer media and provides up to 14 hours of media recording.
Multi-Format Player
Don't worry about limited playback capabilities, the DMR-ES15 can play DVD, DVD-RW (VR Mode), DVD-RW (Video Mode), DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, VCD and CD-DA discs. Also, you can play your favorite songs from CDs or MP3 files, and JPEG images.
Progressive Scan
The DMR-ES15 is a progressive scan DVD player, capable of scanning an entire video frame at once; scan-lines commonly associated with interlaced video are drastically reduced. The result is a spectacularly clear image with no motion artifacts (stair-stepping), and details so sharp they seem as if they're etched onto the screen.
Quick Start Recording
Thanks to high-speed quick-start, with DVD-RAM disc, you are ready to record just 1 second after switching on the power. Being able to record almost instantly, means that you will never miss the Monday night kick off!
Simultaneous Recording and Playback
While you're recording this week's episode of your favorite TV show, you may want to watch last week's episode. No need to worry, the DMR-ES15 features a simultaneous recording and playback function which enables you to record one program while you watch another one that has already been recorded onto the same disc.
High-Performance Outputs
With playback specifications that meet the standards of professionals, the DMR-ES15 features a component video output for high-resolution low-distortion video playback, and an optical digital audio output for high-quality audio playback.
Dolby Digital and DTS Sound
The DMR-ES15 offers built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoders capable of advanced 24-bit processing and an outstanding sampling frequency of 96 kHz.
