DMR-EH50S
Step-up Features (continued )
◆ The DMR-EH505HS records data from hard
disk at up to 12x normal speed to a DVD-
RAM disc or 24x speed to DVD-R (both in EP
mode). So you can record a one-hour pro-
gram to DVD-RAM in just 5 minutes or to
DVD-R in just 2.5 minutes.
◆ The fastest DVD recorder in the industry, the
top-of-the-line DMR-EH50S offers high-
speed dubbing from hard disk drive onto
DVD-RAM at speeds of 40x and onto DVD-R
up to 64x in EP mode. Record a one-hour
program onto DVD-R in under one minute!
◆ New, Smart Wheel user-friendly remote con-
trol to quickly find recorded programs and
start playback faster than ever (200x quick
search and fast-forward smooth search.)
◆ For convenience, it features Direct Navigator,
an on screen guide that presents content
stored on a disc in easy-to-review thumb-
nails. Pressing the Direct Navigator button
brings up the thumbnails of all the pro-
grams on a disc for easy play selection.
◆ Simultaneous Record & Play lets you view a
previously recorded program on a DVD-RAM
disc or the hard disk drive while simultane-
ously recording a different program.
◆ Relief Recording (on the hard disk drive)
automatically checks the remaining disc
space when recording onto a DVD-RAM or
DVD-R disc. If there’s not enough space, the
recorder shifts the recording to the hard
drive. Other PVR functions such as Time Slip,
Chasing Playback and Simultaneous Record
& Play (see previous page) are available
using either the hard disk drive or DVD-RAM.
◆ Has a built-in SD Memory Card slot enabling
faster, easier networking and file sharing
with PCs, digital still cameras and video
camcorders and other SD-enabled devices,
such as plasma displays.
◆ Taking an SD memory card from a digital
camera and inserting it into the SD card slot,
you can transfer JPEG or TIFF images to the
recorder and view them on your TV. (Via the
Image Viewer/Storage function which allows
on-screen playback of JPEG or TIFF images,
or recording to DVD). Once in the recorder,
you can organize the images into folders
and create photo albums that you can store
on a DVD-RAM disc or hard drive.
