DVD Recorders

A DVD Recorder is little short of the ultimate in digital entertainment versatility. TV, home video, family photos,

music, movies wherever and whenever you want... with a DVD recorder the choice is yours.

plastic caddy, protecting them from

fingerprints and scratches.

The main advantages of DVD-RAM

are the recording and editing

versatility. With the Random Access

Memory (RAM) format, all available

space on a disc can be used,

unwanted sections of programmes

can be simply edited or deleted, and

new recordings made without

accidentally recording over

something you wanted to keep.

DVD-RW

A DVD-RW disc is also re-writable,

up to a maximum of 1,000 times.

However, recording is linear, just like

on a VHS tape, so although

recordings can be deleted and

replaced, they cannot be edited. This

means that there is greater risk of

over-recording and wasted space

than with a DVD-RAM disc.

DVD-R

Like CD-R, a write-once DVD-R

disc can only be used to record once

and the recording cannot be deleted.

The main advantage is that they are

cheap to buy and compatible with

most DVD players, recorders or

DVD drives, making them ideal

for loans to friends and multiple

copying (for example, a wedding

or holiday video).
