You'll have a DVD that can be played on most consumer set-top DVD players or your computer's DVD-ROM drive. Up to 6 hours of home video will fit on standard DVD recordable or rewritable discs, and with Double Layer DVD+R DL discs, up to 12 hours can be recorded on a single disc. Real time MPEG encoding ensures the highest possible quality. DVDirect can even be connected to a computer via Hi-Speed USB for high speed 16x max. DVD burning. Don't let your precious home movies sit in a closet; breathe new life into them by burning them onto DVD and share with family and friends or just save them for the future.

To Fellow movie project recorders If you are after a great easy high quality way to do tapeless recording you are well to look at this handy device. The VCD VC20 makes the transition a snap. There are not alot of products out there that do this so easy and so ready to use and at a great price. I like this product for the reason the tape problems are gone and the quality is safely stored and usable.I would take the time to look this product over to see if you and it are compatable. I think you will be pleased. Steve
