Dual layer capable recorders will have the ability to record on the new dual layer DVD recordable discs as well as traditional single layer DVD discs and CDs too. Want more? Because a recorded dual layer DVD disc is compliant to the DVD9 specification, the discs are compatible with most consumer DVD players and computer DVD-ROM drives already installed in the market.

  PIONEER 250GB 1080i video output gives you an HDTV-compliant picture with roughly twice the resolution of progressive-scan DVD players.

• Think of this PIONEER DVD Recorder as a recording device that does much the same thing as a VCR, such as recording from TV or your camcorder and playing those recordings for display on your TV. Except that a DVD Recorder does those things much better than a VCR, by virtue of recording onto DVD discs with resolution and clarity that's inherently superior to VHS tapes. And, since DVD Recorders have a built-in TV tuner just like a VCR, you can set the timer to record one show while watching another.

• DVD discs don't degrade over time the way tapes do since there's no physical contact between the laser that reads the disc and the disc itself. DVDs will play flawlessly for years on end, hundreds of times or more, provided you take reasonable care in handling them.
  DVDs record with more lines of resolution, for a markedly sharper picture than VHS. By pairing a DVD recorder (or player) with a Progressive Scan  (a feature included on most DVD Recorders today) with your digital TV, the result is double the lines of resolution for a significantly crisper, sharper and more consistent picture. But wait this is HDMI meaning twice as better as Progressive Scan.....WOW....

• For preserving and protecting precious home videos for generations, there's nothing better than DVDs. When transferring home videos onto DVDs, your recordings will often look better than the originals. That's because many DVD Recorders have image-filtering and enhancement circuitry that smooths out the imperfections in your old videotapes. DVDs are smaller and much thinner than VHS tapes, so once you've created an entire library of DVDs, you'll be able to store it in a fraction of the space.
