April 13th 2005 Sony Introduces the RDR-HX510
The “I” refers to the range’s intelligent, easy to use controls and the “Q” stands for high quality DVD/HDD Recording. The RDR-HX510 boasts 80GB HDD capability. For quality, the HQ+ recording realises the original video source signals as accurately as possible by recording onto the hard disk at 15Mbps; a higher bit rate than the DVD-Video standard bit rate. In addition the RDR-HX510 has a newly developed D-Matrix Noise Reduction feature that diminishes ‘digital noise’ using three different noise reduction technologies simultaneously, depending on the characteristic of the picture. For intelligence, the RDR-HX510 also includes original scene-detecting algorithm technology from Sony. This technology enables the DVD recorder to recognise significant scene changes and insert chapter marks using ‘Intelligent Scene Chaptering’. The user can then select their desired scene easily by using the ‘Visual Chapter Search’ function, which displays a small thumbnail image of the beginning of each chapter. To delete a scene, the user simply employs the ‘Scene Chapter Edit’ function to select and then delete the scene. This process is also helped by a smoother and faster Graphic User Interface (GUI) than on previous models. In addition the DVD recorder includes the new feature ‘Pause Live TV’ which allows the user to pause a live programme via the remote control. This feature means users can view their programmes with a delay or simply fast forward to catch up with the real time broadcast, thus giving consumers control over how they wish to view their programmes. With its affordable price point, RDR-HX510 is targeted at the growing number of HDD/DVD recorder users. Including DVD-RW/-R and DVD+RW/+R compatibility, the DVD player is the perfect DVD/HDD recorder for all entertainment enthusiasts. The product will be available in continental Europe from August 2005. |
