High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
If you're looking to pump high-definition DVD playback into your HD displays or projectors, this unit will do the job. It has a high-bandwidth processor capable of upconverting to 1080i through the HDMI output. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable.
Progressive Scan
This 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.
Set-Top Box Pass-Through
It offers Set-Top Box Pass-Through technology, which allows for viewing of TV programs from your satellite receiver or cable box even when the RDR-GX355 is powered off.
Multi-Format Player
Don't worry about limited playback capabilities, it can play DVD-Video, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL, DVD-RAM, VCD, SVCD, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA, MP3, and JPEG images.
Recordable DVD Media
Record your favorite shows onto DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, and DVD+R Dual Layer discs.
Multiple Recording Modes
It offers 8 recording modes: HQ (1h), HSP (1.5h), SP (2h), LSP (2.5h), ESP (3h), LP (4h), EP (6h), SLP (8h). Also, the RDR-GX355 has the ability to record up to an amazing 14 hours with a DVD+R DL disc (SLP Mode).
DV (IEEE 1394) Input
Just connect your digital video camera to the RDR-GX355's DV front-input terminal, and you're ready to record images onto a DVD recordable disc.
High-Performance Outputs
With playback specifications that meet the standards of professionals, this recorder features a component video output for high-resolution low-distortion video playback, and optical/coaxial digital audio outputs for high-quality audio playback.
