Product Description
DVD Recorder and Player DVDR615 - Philips DVD recorders are based on the DVD+RW technology, offering you almost endless reliability, compatibility, performance and simplicity for recording DVDs. This also means that the DVDs you record on the DVDR615 can be played on virtually any DVD player. It also has a disc manager function that helps you to archive all your recordings and an iLINK function to easily transfer your digital camcorder video recordings to durable, high-quality DVD discs. You get about 4-hours of recording per DVD and, unlike tapes, recordings remain true and high-quality for over 1,000 plays and a hundred years. It's a must-have component for any home-theater system.

Amazon Product Description
High on convenience, low on hassles, Philips' DVDR615 progressive-scan DVD player/recorder gives you a simple way to share your home videos with others, relieve your VCR of its regular TV taping duties, and enjoy quality home cinema presentations on standard or high-definition televisions. Using the model's extensive inputs--including an i.Link digital video jack--you can transfer and assemble your most treasured camcorder footage, archive all your old video tapes, or burn video from your PC straight to high-capacity DVD--up to an amazing 8 hours per disc side using either DVD+R or rewritable DVD+RW.
The DVDR615 features progressive-scan technology, which enables compatible TVs to display images at double the frequency of standard TVs, minimizing flicker and making the picture easier on your eyes.
|
The DVDR615 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 DVDR615 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 DVDR615 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 DVDR615 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 and 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, 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.
Customer Reviews:
BEWARE: DVDs are non-standard & incompatible.......2006-11-29
I am bitterly disappointed with the Philips DVDR-3400 recorder, and suppose that all of its line has the same problems.
I did not find out until I had burned 300+ DVDs that the disk directory structure created by these Phillips machines is defective. The main title on the disk you make will appear to "play" on your home DVD player... but ALL of the post-recording edits made (cutting out parts you didn't want etc.) are LOST.
AND most PC-based DVD players and other software won't handle the disk, so if you wrote your home movies to disk for long-term archiving, you're out of luck.
I don't know how a company the size of Phillips can release such a piece of crap. They HAD to know of these problems. I am sick to think of the time I have lost. All I have is junk to show for it. And yes, I did everything right (finalizing the disks etc).
Add to this the terrible remote control with rubbery, no-feedback keys that often don't work; little provision for using the deck for playback, etc. etc. (read other's complaints) and you have a real loser here.
I bought my first Phillips tape recorder in 1968. I will never buy another Phillips product.
audio/sound behind and on delay(on finished dvd recording) for 1-2 seconds(stays on delay for the whole recording)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-05-17
i don't know if all machines do this but, when you record a program(especially in M3, M4, M6, & M8 mode)the picture is in front of the audio(Ex. someone gets smacked in the face, you see the hand smack the face, then 1-2 seconds later you hear the sound of the person being smacked?????). the video and audio are seperated not connected naturally as it's supposed to be?????. M1, M2, & M2x seem to be the only option if you want everything to work in it's natural state as it should. speaking of the speed modes, if you want the best i suggess you stay with M1, M2, & M2x for the best near actual picture quality. you get to M3(s-video)you see difference(not extrordinarally bad though), M4(pretty much the same as M3 but this speed falls into the category of SP speed standard VHS and this is where you really see the begining of the "blocky" picture artifacts). M6 is a big joke(even though you get a longer recording time). this is where you see this things go strait down hill. an over-abundance of blocky artifacts and even at times "blurred picture". M8. where do i even start. very pixilated picture(even with the best starting source for recording, like digital cable for Ex.). also the "picture motion"(the natural speed of of the picture, as if you were seeing something live through your own eyes in living color)is like cheap "VCD" quality. the motion does'nt look live, real, or natural at all. also when viewing vhs tapes in any vcr connected to the philips 615 with the rca-jacks(yellow, white, & red)and/or a coaxial cable(from the wall-like cable)the picture jumps, skips, & pauses during recording vhs to dvd or when not doing so(and a vhs tape won't have any line crawls, drop-outs, or any defects and it will still skip, jump & pause?????). have a bad vhs tape?. want it recorded properly?. you can forget it. this machine could'nt record vhs tapes properly if your life depended on it. does it record good?. yes(M1, M2, & M2x only). is it a hassle & nightmare to work with?. absolutly(M3, M4, M6, & M8 does have audio delays, bad "picture motion"(only in M8 to make things clear, VCD anyone?????)blocky artifacts, and also colors bleed in picture(especially red, orange, etc.). the "philips picture filter optimizer for modes "M3-M8" can't save the picture quality on this machine. oh and how could i forget. want 1h, 2h, 2 1/2h 3h, 4h, & 6h's of actual recording time, forget it. well 1h mode you get around 1:03:04, 2h mode you get around 1:57:38, 3h mode you get around 2:58:18, 4h mode you get around 3:58:16, & 6h mode you get around 5:58:17(all estimated by a few seconds more or less approx.). this is not good. in the end when minutes count, this machine will let you down. beautiful machine, but a nightmare to deal with. what a waste. want philips support, you can forget that to. i've wasted dozens of dvd discs on this machine(shiny coasters anyone).all in all a missed opportunity for both parties(consumers and philips). zero stars. a big F-. any suggestions for a good reliable dual-layered recording dvd recorder with absolutly no problems?. anyone. i'm all ears!!!!!
GARBAGE!!! WARNING STAY AWAY.......2006-02-13
THIS UNIT IS JUNK. THIS WAS GIVEN TO ME TO REPLACE THE UNIT THAT I PURCHASED THAT ALSO BROKE!!!!!!!!! IT HAS BEEN A TWO YEAR NIGHTMARE DEALING WITH PHILIPS AS THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTHING BUT PROMISES AND LIES. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT PURCHASE ANY PHILIPS PRODUCTS AS THEY DO NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TWO YEARS AND 367 DOLLARS AND I HAVE ZERO TO SHOW FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! WARNING STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE NOTE THE ONLY REASON THEY GOT 1 STAR IS BECAUSE I COULD NOT GIVE THEM ZERO!!!!!!!
Works fine for me.................................2006-01-17
I would have given it a "5 star" rating except I could never get it to playback store bought DVD's in DD 5.1 or DTS 5.1.
But... I have made over 100 DVD+/R recordings and they all play back perfectly in DD 2.0. Most receivers will allow DD prologic I or II and DTS neo:mode for playback in surround. I made them mostly for my laptop for traveling which I only listen to via stereo headphones anyway. I also recorded many NFL games in HD during the course of the season (DVD+/RW) and even at the M3 recording level they were dooable - all erased just fine for the following weeks games. I would reccomend only an M1, M2 or M2x for anything you want at DVD quality. it starts with the source - I only record HD source material and a few items from my camcoder. The better the source - the better the final product. I use the Phillips DVD+/R blanks exclusively.........
Worst Ever.......2006-01-16
This is the worst dvd i ever purchased - it never worked properly and just when the warranty expired it completely stopped responding, after resetting it to original settings it still did not work, the menu is not friendly - this is just a poor product. This is the second phillips product I have purchased and this is one will join the first in the trash.
I do not recommend this or any other phillips product.
