More pioneering use for MPEG-2 codec
Pioneer has once again chosen the LSI Logic DVxcel MPEG-2 codec as a key component for its most advanced consumer recordable products
Having previously used DVxcel in its DVR-7000 DVD-R/RW recorder, Pioneer continues to leverage advanced LSI Logic DVD technology for its first dual-drive DVD recorder, the DVR-77H, and its fourth-generation single drive DVD recorder, the DVR-55. Combining a DVD recorder with a digital video recorder (DVR), Pioneer's DVR-77H gives consumers a new level of flexibility by allowing them to record, store and edit video on hard disk drive and then later transfer those files to DVD-R or DVD-RW drive for personal distribution.
With this advanced model, Pioneer has also reduced consumer concerns about format compatibility by adding support for DVD-Video on DVD-R, which offers an increased level of backward compatibility with the current installed base of DVD players.
