(PRWeb UK/PRWEB ) June 11, 2009 -- The continued trend toward Full HD in TV broadcasts HDTV, discs and digital AV equipment has spawned demand for innovative digital recorders. Panasonic's response is the "HD Everything" concept - products that allow anyone to easily control, preserve and share a wide variety of Full HD images. Designed under this concept, the new trio of digital recorders come equipped with functions users will enjoy today and need tomorrow.

Panasonic new range of BD Recorders

First are the recording functions. Each of the new models is equipped with twin tuners, making it possible to record two TV programmes broadcast at the same time. When the recorder is used together with a VIERA flat-panel TV, Panasonic's unique VIERA Link functions can be used to control recording operations. This allows the viewer to use the VIERA TV's remote control to record in a way that is similar to pausing a TV programme that is being watched.

Programmes that have been recorded and stored in the hard disk drive can be converted to the H.264 format and saved. By compressing data more compactly than standard DR (Direct Record) mode recording, the H.264 format lets viewers use their hard disk drive space more efficiently or store more TV programmes on a single Blu-ray DiscTM. Up to 24 hours of HD content can be stored on one Blu-ray disc (in high speed copy mode), adding the possibility of a whole TV series on one disc.

For outstanding playback performance, all three new recorders feature high-image-quality PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus* and P4HD, two technology systems that earned high acclaim in Panasonic Blu-ray DiscTM players. These technologies give films purchased in disc form a level of beauty rivalling the original film recording, and they deliver deep, detailed images from recorded TV programmes. The three new models are compatible with Blu-ray standard's BD-Live function, so users can download special features and images from the Internet for extra enjoyment.

In terms of audio, the new DMR-BS850 and BS750 support the superior surround sound of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-Master Audio Essential on Blu-ray DiscTM media. Users can connect

the recorder to a compatible amplifier and enjoy the stunningly high quality 7.1-channel surround sound of the Blu-ray Player.

The new recorders can save images from an HD camcorder or other digital camera onto the built-in hard disk drive or a Blu-ray DiscTM. In the past, a computer or other similar device was needed to save images like these, but Panasonic's three new models make it easy to create discs right in the living room. Music CDs also can be recorded onto the hard disk drive. The three recorders are compatible with gracenote®, so song titles and artist names are automatically recorded together with the music.

The new recorders also support Panasonic's VIERA CAST Internet function, so users can easily access Internet content such as YouTube™ and Picasa™ Web Albums and view it on a large-screen TV.

Making it easy for anyone to record, play and save Full HD content, the new DMR-BS850, BS750 Blu-Ray™ recorders and the XS350 HD DVD recorder fromrecorder from Panasonic bring users a big step forward into the HD age.
