The Sylvania DVC865F Progressive Scan DVD/VCR Dual Deck provides the perfect hybrid solution for the serious movie enthusiast. With both a high-end DVD and equally feature-rich VCR, this unit will free space in your component stack and still let you enjoy your entire film library, regardless of format. The player reads DVD Video discs, DVD -R/RW discs, Audio CDs, CD-RWs, CD-Rs and also plays MP3 files.

The DVD player includes progressives scan. 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 DVD player also includes a 3:2 pulldown feature that improves the image quality of film transfers. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

VCR features include a 4 head HiFi MTS-SAP driver for superior picture and audio quality. The 181 channel auto set PLL MTS_SAP frequency synthesized tuner, when combined with the 1-year/8-event programmable timer, will record your favorite programs, something your stand-alone DVD player won't do. The unit also makes finding your favorite scene a snap. Use either the index and time search, or the two-step picture search to quickly locate the frame you want.

A host of output choices mean you can use whichever connection is most convenient or highest-quality. There's an RF (F-connector) in and out, for those really old TVs, and of course, standard composite A/V (RCA) jacks in both the front and rear for practically every other device. S-Video and component video output connect higher-end TVs, and digital audio output lets you send audio to most any home theater system.

With a great feature set for both players, a 44-key remote control and stylish exterior, this deck lets you play the latest DVDs and still enjoy those old-school tapes you carefully collected. Whether you're looking to upgrade your system to include a DVD player, or you need to replace a worn-out VCR, this combination unit makes perfect sense--and it only takes the space of one component.

3 out of 5 stars A good device for a test-taker!.......2001-08-01

This is a good machine if you want to use it to increase your vocabularies especially for anyone who is going to take SAT because it contains a lot of tests like analogies, synonyms, antonyms, etc. It's very boring if you have to use flashcards or do the tests in the books or even on computer all the time. You can carry this one with you and play with it on the way to school or any where. However, it is a bad electronic dictionary because it doesn't contain a lot of vocabularies. So it really depends on your purposes. If you want to have a decent pocket-electronic dictionary, I recommend you to look for "bookman from franklin" instead.
