JVC About to Launch VHS, DVD, Blu-R and HDD Recorder
Yes, what you probably thought that you will never combine is arriving: A device for playing and recording VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray and HDD. And who is in charge of this invention? JVC, they are releasing the JVC DR-BH2550 in Japan in a few weeks more (December).
But wait, that’s not all, it also has a 250 GB hard drive, neat isn’t?
The idea actually, if you think about it, it is not all that strange. Recording from DVD to Blu-R it is not all that common yet, using a DVD recorder to replace a VHS it is not working either (maybe because there is none with an acceptable quality); so what do you may need? A device that combines all of them.
Some of other features that will include:
- Supporting photograms of 1080, 60 and 24 pixels.
- BD-Live for Blu-Ray interactive applications.
- Bonusview, for Blu-Ray extras materials.
- Support for Sony’s AVCHD.
- USB ports and one slot for SD/SDHC memory cards.
- HDMI.
Estimated cost? US1400
