Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Now you have a simple way to share your home videos with others, archive your most-treasured VHS tapes, and enjoy quality home cinema presentations on standard or high-definition televisions: Philips' DVDR600VR combination progressive-scan DVD player/recorder with built-in VCR. Schedule your TV recordings for either disc or tape and use the model's extensive inputs -- including an i.Link digital video jack -- to transfer and assemble camcorder footage or burn video from your PC to high-capacity DVD. The unit records up to 8 hours per disc side using either DVD+R or rewritable DVD+RW.

The DVDR600VR also features a disc manager that allows instant viewing of all recorded discs, storing contents details for up to 9,000 titles across up to 999 discs. You can also use the DVDR600VR like a VCR, burning televised programs directly to disc using VCR Plus+ simplified programming. Recording functions include favorite scene selection, automatic/manual chapter marker insertion, selectable index pictures, selectable background picture, append, divide, and "fit to space."

DVD+RW discs require no finalizing -- you can record, eject, and play them with minimal fuss, thanks to "background formatting." This feature, which lowers total burning time, is an advantage over the "dash" formats. Other DVD+RW advantages include on-disc content editing and multisession writing. And, through DVD+RW and DVD+R's compatibility with most existing DVD players, they're a great way for you to share your special memories with family and friends.

But the DVDR600VR is also a first-rate DVD player, featuring progressive-scan video outputs, Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround sound passthrough, MP3 CD playback (CD-R/CD-RW), and compatibility with most DVD media (including video-mode DVD-R and DVD-RW).

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVDR600VR stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

Top-of-the-line interlaced component-video inputs and outputs (the output is switchable with the progressive-scan output) help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts from component-video sources and on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video inputs and outputs bring compatibility with nearly any video component and television monitor. Audio inputs consist of 2-channel analog jacks with 24-bit/96 kHz analog-to-digital conversion for DVD with Dolby Digital 2.0 audio compression (compression is non-defeatable). Video conversion, to and from digital, is performed by high-quality 10-bit, 54 MHz converters.

Two sets of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

What's in the Box
DVD recorder/VCR, a remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual (English/Spanish), a quick-install guide, an AC power cord, a stereo analog audio interconnect, a composite-video cable, and an RF coaxial/antenna cable.

1.0 out of 5 stars complete junk--beware, September 23, 2006
This review is from: Remanufactured Philips DVDR600VR Progressive Scan DVD+RW Recorder and VCR Combo (Electronics)
Plays some VHS with static in the audio that other VCRs play fine. Even worse, the DVDs that are recorded from this machine are of very poor quality. Audio and video cuts out at random, creating very jumpy DVDs. This is from the brand new machine. I returned it within a week. Very poor quality. Don't put yourself through the hassle of having to buy and return. BEWARE.

1.0 out of 5 stars A complete piece of garbage, October 28, 2006
This review is from: Remanufactured Philips DVDR600VR Progressive Scan DVD+RW Recorder and VCR Combo (Electronics)
Job one for a DVD player (even one that records on DVD and VHS) is to play what you've recorded, and to play your DVDs. Good luck getting this hunk of junk to play your store-bought DVDs. Half the time, when offering you a menu, it will not highlight the menu items so you can't actually choose anything. Which of course brings your viewing to an abrupt end.

As to recording, this thing does not allow you to dub digitally from an outside source to the DVD player. So much for the wonder of digital imagery.

I'm very unhappy with the machine -- I'd say you should avoid it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Did not work right out of the box.., October 12, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Remanufactured Philips DVDR600VR Progressive Scan DVD+RW Recorder and VCR Combo (Electronics)
Returned it within a couple of days because various functions were not working properly right off the bat; VHS tapes were playing improperly, VHS to DVD record was operating at a strange ratio, etc.

Thankfully, Amazon's refund process was smooth.
