HDMIncredible

Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, the JVC DRMV150B features one HDMI connection. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. (Please note that a physical adapter, sold separately, is needed to make the conversion from HDMI to DVI.)

Tune in

Many of the DVD players coming out today don't have built-in tuners to pick up TV signals. But the DRMV150B isn't one of them. It offers both ATSC (digital) and NTSC (analog) tuners, so you're good to go on VSB, Clear QAM, VHF, UHV, and CATV signals. This means that you're ready to pick up traditional signals, and you'll be ready for the upcoming digital television transition. Tune in high quality with the DRMV150B.

The perfect link for sharing memories

So you've just returned from vacation, your friend's wedding, or your child's soccer game, where you've captured all the action on your digital camcorder. You'd like nothing more than to share this excitement with others. Imagine being able to plug your camcorder into the front of your DVD player/recorder and make DVD copies for everyone you know. That's exactly the kind of convenience the DRMV150B gives you. On the DRMV150B, a DV input i.LINK (IEEE 1394) connection makes it easy to plug in your digital camcorder and burn DVDs or VHS tapes of your latest adventure.

Connectivity

While format versatility, progressive scanning, and video upconversion are all hot-topic words in consumer electronics today, so is "connectivity." Giving you optimal connectivity options for hooking to video sources like a second DVD player, the JVC DR-MV150B has been designed to accept and transmit video and audio via a variety of interface types. Outputs include component video, composite video, S-video, stereo audio, and coaxial and optical digital audio. Inputs include composite video, S-video, and stereo audio.
