With its high-end component-video DVD outputs, VHS recording and
playback abilities, built-in MP3 decoding, and compatibility with JPEG
image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs, Samsung's DVD-V4600 DVD/VCR combo is a
conveniently slim entertainment dynamo. Now you'll be able to enjoy a
slideshow of your digital pictures right on your television. It will
play video-mode DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW discs, too, making it a great gift
for family members with whom you'd like to share your home videos on DVD.
This model also includes front-panel audio/video inputs so you can
quickly and easily hook up a camcorder or gaming console. Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely
thinking of "someday," the DVD-V4600 stands ready to deliver the full
potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for
the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a
picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving
you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all
motion artifacts.
The VCR delivers hi-fi stereo sound and quasi-S-VHS (SQPB) playback,
which lets you view S-VHS cassettes--normally only playable on high-end
S-VHS machines--in standard VHS resolution. The unit's 4-head design
ensures smooth slow-motion play (forward and reverse) and clear
still-frame images. Use the VCR's advance-record settings to make sure
you never miss a favorite show or pertinent one-time broadcast.
Top-of-the-line component-video outputs (for DVD only) help minimize
digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions,
while composite- and S-video outputs bring DVD compatibility with nearly
any television. The VCR output is composite-video and RF only. A set of
left/right analog-audio outputs for both DVD and VCR components channel
audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby
Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound DVD signals can be routed
through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each optical and
coaxial) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.
Another handy feature is EZ View letterbox eliminator, which lets you
enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs--even when you're
watching widescreen DVDs.
