Product Description
The PV-D4762 Double Feature combination DVD player and four-head, Hi-Fi stereo VCR lets users record a TV program and watch a DVD at the same time. It also plays DVD-R, CDs or home recorded CD-R, CD-RW2, or MP3 recordings. The PV-DV4762 adds progressive scan capability. When connected to a digital-ready television through the component jacks, progressive scan can deliver the very sharpest picture the DVD format has to offer. Other step-up features include Commercial Advance and Movie Advance. Commercial Advance marks the beginning and end of each commercial segment while the VCR is recording. During playback, the system detects the marks and automatically skips over the commercials.Adding to the unit's versatility is a wide array of audio/video jacks, namely: discreet component video output, S-Video output, dual RCA A/V outputs, optical digital output and RF in/out. In short, all the connections you need whether you're doing your viewing on a 5-year old mono TV or a big-screen digital set hooked up to a surround sound system. The deck also includes Dolby Digital and dts outputs for digital 5.1-channel surround.
Amazon.com Product Description
Panasonic's PV-D4762 is not only incredibly convenient, but also one of the first combi models to offer a progressive-scan video output, providing top-of-the-line DVD picture quality when used with a high-definition or HD-ready TV.

Video Features
Progressive scanning displays all 480 video lines in one pass, rendering horizontal image lines sequentially rather than interlacing the even lines with the odd. This equals high vertical resolution and flicker-free, high-density images--reason enough to make the HDTV leap. The included S-video and composite-video outputs work just fine with most older TVs. The PV-D4762 plays standard DVD-Video discs and most DVD-Rs (recordable DVDs), from which you can easily make VHS copies of weddings, birthdays, etc. For the VCR, the Commercial Advance lets you hop past three minutes of commercials in about 25 seconds, while Movie Advance scans the beginning of a rental video to skip the previews. The unit's four-head design ensures smooth slow-motion (in forward and reverse) and clear still-frame images.

Audio Features
The PV-D4762 is compatible with standard CDs, audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and discs encoded with MP3 audio files. (CD-R/CD-RW playability may vary depending on contents and discs.) It can simulate surround-sound effects using only two speakers, so you'll still be able to appreciate a sense of surround sound even if you don't have a surround receiver or six-channel speaker setup.

Connections
In the video realm, you get standard composite-video, S-video, and premium component-video outputs for the DVD player (one set each), as well as two sets of composite-video inputs (one on the front and one at the rear) and one RF (cable-type) input and output for the VCR. There's also an optical digital-audio output to feed a surround-sound signal to a Dolby Digital-decoding or DTS-decoding AV receiver. It has stereo RCA analog audio outputs as well. In addition, an illuminated multibrand universal Light Tower remote control is included.
