Introduction
The DVR10 is a Digital Video Recorder designed specifically for High Definition Television (HDTV).
The DVR10 connects to a Digital Television (DTV) via IEEE 1394 to offer control over the digital
video playback. Think of it as a “tape-less” VCR for digital television. You can pause, fast forward,
reverse, or use instant replay, so you’ll never miss a moment. But unlike a traditional VCR where
you wait for a program to finish recording before you start watching it, the DVR10 allows you
to “Pause Live TV.” This means you can pause, rewind, and play back a program as it is being
recorded. Record all of your favorite programs while maintaining the same high quality digital
picture that it was broadcast in.
Requirements
Digital Television with at least one IEEE 1394 jack and supports AV/C (Audio/Video commands)
