"Chart reproduction (1.3 time velocity)" which can be quickly enjoyed while understanding content by 1.3 time velocity voice addition reflection (*5)
The recorded program can be reproduced at faster speed than a usual reproduction by the voice at 1.3 time road velocity which might not cut addition reflection. For instance, it is convenient for the recorded check on the news program and the outline confirmation with a continuous drama etc. , etc. Moreover, the going after reproduction of recording (*6) and the chart can reproduce during the recording reproduction simultaneously. * 5:[It] cannot have the voices other than the Dolby NR digital. Neither DVD-R nor DVD-Video can be done.
* 6:When the FR mode is recorded the XP mode, it is not possible to do. | | | 2. | Slim design of depth (*2) and industry thin class (*3) of size almost 14 types per 21 type
"Τ < (*tau*) > flat cathode-ray tube slim tube" of the favorable comment was installed with 21 type in our company television, and 38.9cm of industry thin class (*3) in the depth was achieved. A slim design of conserve space compact & to be able to put 21 type television which is one rank larger on installation space (*2) of almost 14 type-television. | | 3. | Display window where state of operation of DVD and time are understood in one glance

Hybrid VBR method high picture quality MPEG2 record (equipped with bit rate meter)
To enable the high picture quality recording of a long time making the best use of the record capacity of the disk for recording the reflection to DVD-RAM and DVD-R to its maximum, the encoder system of "Hybrid VBR" method (Variable Bit Rate Control) to changeable control the compression rate of MPEG2 in real time has been adopted. Hybrid VBR in real time distinguishes the complexity of the recorded reflection and controls the bit rate corresponding to the complexity of the reflection scene (changeable bit rate compression). In addition, the reflection record by the high picture quality has been achieved by automatically distinguishing the area to which the person pays attention, using "Sight sensitivity modulation technology" to be able to do efficient digital signal making, and digital of the best reflection signal compressing it. Moreover, "Bit rate meter" by which a real-time bit rate can be displayed when recording and reproducing can be installed, and a changeable control of the compression rate be confirmed in one glance. | | (3) |
Easy, convenient recording and reproduction function only of disk

"Right recording (FR mode recording)" by which capacity of disk is made the best use of full
A record rate the best according to empty capacity of the disk is automatically set when recording in DVD-RAM and DVD-R in the FR mode when the dubbing is done from an external input and the timer is reserved and [it] records. For instance, when 90 minutes are recorded with an empty disk, the record rate between XP and EP is set automatically, the amount of the remainder in the disk is made the best use of full, and it is possible to record by the record rate of best. | | [6] |
Chinese character title input
It is possible to preserve it by inputting program Nabis, the play list, and the title of the reservation etc. by the Chinese character because [it] corresponds to the Chinese character title input. In addition, it is easy to input it by introducing the shortcut key. | | [7] |

Three digital W(double) dimension circuit is installed.
Three digital W(double) dimension circuit of the Y/C digital three dimensions separation circuit and the (*noizuridakushon*) digital three dimensions circuits is installed in this product. The Y/C digital three dimensions separations accurately separate brightness signal (Y) sent by the broadcasting station and color signal (C) and decrease the dot noise generated by mutual interference. Moreover, digital three dimension (*noizuridakushon*) removes the noise which mixes with the reflection signal when reproducing, and achieves flicker few, refreshing reflections. | | [2] |
Input TBC (time base collector)
(*jittah*) (horizontal shake) generated by the reproduction side video is suppressed when inputting from the video to an external input of this machine etc. and recording (dubbing), [it] converts into a steady signal, and external input TBC circuit which can be recorded is installed. The function which (*jittah*) generated easily in the reproduction signal of the analog reflection recorded with a video and a video camera and the vertical line can bend, the seen phenomenon of beating the head be pressed, and the optical disk preserve by the high picture quality.
| | [3] |
Block NR and Mosquito NR ((*noizuridakushon*))
A newly developed (*noizuridakushon*) technology which decreases this noise is installed in Mosquito ((*chiratsuki*)) noise generated in an outline part of the block noise generated easily at the reflection with a violent movement and the reflection and these by the one generated when MPEG2 is compressed. | | < television >
