DVD Recorder DVDR725H
Product Highlights
FlexTime
With FlexTime you can watch a program while it’s still
being recorded, thanks to the extreme speed of a Hard
Disk. You can also watch a different progam from the
Hard Disk while it’s recording something else.
Instant Replay
With Instant Replay you are in control of exciting TV
moments so you can enjoy a precious TV moment like a
scene in a movie or football match again – immediately,
at the press of a button. The Hard Disk can play back
any scene while continuing to record the rest of the
programme, so you can instantly replay the last scene
at any moment.
Pause Live TV
A very large built-in memory records the program on
screen when you press the pause button. When it suits
you, you can resume the program from the moment
you pressed ‘pause’ as if you’re watching a live program.
High-Speed archiving (from HDD to DVD)
High speed archiving lets you make a copy of a
recording from Hard Disk to DVD in a fraction of the
original recording time. Once the program is stored
on HDD you can copy it to DVD+R/+RW at
maximum speed.
GUIDE Plus+
GUIDE Plus+ is an Interactive Program Guide – a free
on-screen TV Guide that shows what’s on TV for the
next couple of days and lets you program the timer
of the DVD Recorder with the push of a button.
Sat Mouse
The Sat Mouse is a special accessory that lets a DVD
Recorder control external satellite receivers. It sends
infra-red remote control commands in order to switch
the satellite receiver on and select the correct channel.
