the Recorder. The system is available at no monthly
charge and offers programme listings for all major
channels received in your home, one-touch
recording, search by genre, recommendations
according to your profile and more. In this new era
of ever-increasing number of channels, the GUIDE
Plus+ system offers television viewers a convenient
way to find out what's on right now or in the next
week, by channel or by genre. The GUIDE Plus+
system also allows viewers to automatically set
their recording selections quickly and easily. The TV
listings information displayed in the GUIDE Plus+
system is obtained directly from sources in the
broadcasting industry. This information is received
and processed by Gemstar-TV Guide and “broad-
casted” via so called “Host Channels” directly to the
Recorder.

Constantly maintains optimal high picture quality by
varying the bit rate (amount of video data) for each
scene depending on the video content (e.g.
whether movement is fast or slow).

Improved play noise reduction
3-dimensional DIGITAL NOISE REDUCTION: This
eliminates the noise contained in the brightness

sports programmes, for example.
MOSQUITO NOISE REDUCTION: This reduces the
flicker noise that occurs in areas such as the
outlines of images.
