About Panasonic DMR-EH55S, DVD Recorder with 200GB Hard Drive, Built-in SD Card Slot, Silver

Connect an HDMI cable to your TV and you can enjoy a beautiful, high quality picture on a par with High Definition images when playing DVDs and DVD software.You can also convert other non-HD signals to the near HD level for playback withimproved picture quality. Better still, as well as with DVDs, the converter provides more detailed images when viewing VHS tape recordings.

Virtual Multi Encode System
The Virtual Multi Encode System enables LP mode recording with the same 500 lines (D1) of horizontal resolution as that in the SP and XP modes. Which is double the horizontal resolution compared to the 250 lines (1/2 D1) of conventional LP mode recording.

Thanks to this, you can enjoy viewing extended recordings (4 hours [single-sided DVD-RAM/R] /8 hours [double-sided DVD-RAM]) with exceptionally detailed images and twice the picture quality. The Virtual Multi Encode System achieves this by virtually encoding multiple aspects of a scene, such as detail and movement, while selecting the encoding system that assures optimum picture quality.

Time Base Corrector (TBC) + 3D Digital Noise Reduction (DNR)
When connecting a VCR and DIGA to record VHS videotape images onto a DVD disc, the Time Base Corrector helps reduce jitter and performs signal conversion to create a stable signal.

At the same time, 3D DNR detects and virtually eliminates randomly generated noise and color irregularities to help minimize flicker. Thanks to these two technologies, the tape input siggnal is automatically detected and optimum processing is performed to provide an easy way to even more beautiful digital recordings.

12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter
Using the 12-bit Analog-to-Digital converter provides an extremely dense 4,096 steps of gradation. Compared to the 1,024 steps possible with a regular 10-bit Analog-to-Digital converter, this enables recording with four times as many smooth steps. The result is faithful reproduction of the details in both the bright and dark parts of scenes, so that for the first time you can see everything there is to see.

The DIGA ENGINE assures long time recording with even better picture quality. With the DMR-EH55 featuring a built-in 200GB* hard disk drive, you can record for up to roughly 355 hours. You can also record up to 8 hours of material on a single-sided disc (or up to 16 hours on a double-sided 9.4GB* DVD-RAM disc).

Panasonic DVD Recorders are equipped with a high-precision progressive video processor that handles 30-frame progressive scan images* on NTSC disc. This letsyou enjoy high-resolution progressive playback of original DVD images.

DIGA provides faithful reproduction of the sound source thanks to the 192-kHz, 24-bit DAC used in its pure audio components. Audio recording quality in XP/SP mode is further improved by extending the conventional bit rate by 1.5 times to 384 Kbps and using a phase locked loop circuit for the audio signal.
