| Move Into The Future, Hang On To The Past |
The DVDV8500 from Samsung lets you move on to the DVD future without giving up your VHS past. It features a progressive scan DVD player and a HiFi Stereo VCR. The DVD player not only plays DVD releases, but also CDs, including CD-R/RW discs, even those with MP3/WMA files burned on them. You can also view picture CDs, JPEG CDs, and memory cards. VHS HiFi Stereo recording and playback provides top quality video and audio recording from your favorite broadcast stations and external source components. The HiFi audio system and a 181-channel (TV/CATV) MTS stereo tuner system deliver Dolby Surround compatible sound from encoded videotapes and stereo broadcasts. Experience the best of both worlds with the DVDV8500. | Get The Most From Your Digital TV | A progressive scan output allows superior non-interlaced images to be sent from the DVD player to the latest digital television receivers. The smooth, 480p progressive scan image eliminates blur and distortion, bringing new realism to DVD movies and DVD video selections. Component video output terminals are the ideal way to connect the DVDV8500 to advanced analog and digital televisions. This three-terminal interface delivers the ultimate in DVD video quality when connected to the latest large-screen televisions. Coaxial digital audio output ensures the best audio transfer, and there's an S-Video output, composite video terminals, and L/R stereo analog audio connections to give you lots of options when connecting to and from the DVDV8500. There's even front A/V inputs for quick, convenient connections. | Headache-Free Operation | Not only does the DVDV8500 do a lot, it does a lot without giving you a headache. An easy-to-navigate tri-lingual on-screen display makes setup a breeze. The EZ View Letter Box Eliminator lets you get rid of the black letterbox bars on standard 4:3 aspect ratio TV screens with the push of a button on the remote control. Four heads help give the VCR superior slow motion and stop action, and you get INTRO scan, zero return, and END search to make navigating VHS tapes even easier. A 7-event/1-month recording timer lets you plan well in advance for your favorite shows, and there's also one-touch recording to activate 30-minutes of recording time per button push on the remote control. Repeat title/chapter, along with a variable search system will help you get through DVDs, and a parental control system helps you keep the kiddies out of rated DVD content you'd rather not have them see. | Got Memory Cards? | Do you have a digital camera or camcorder that uses memory cards? Another great feature of the DVDV8500 is the 2-slot, multicard interface that allows you to view images stored on each of these 10 memory card formats: MultiMedia Card (MMC), Secure Digital (SD), Smart Media Card, Compact Flash, Micro Drive, Memory Stick, Memory Stick-Pro, Memory Stick Duo, Mini-SD Card, and xD-Picture Card. All this capability--DVD, VHS, and memory card--in one machine. Why buy as many as three other components when the Samsung DVDV8500 will do it all? | Included With Purchase | Remote Control, AAA batteries (2), audio/video cables, antenna cable, Instruction Manual. |
