Samsung’s slim, stylish, titanium-finished DVD-V3650 DVD/VCR combo is perfect for your whole favorite movies and music. It features VHS recording and playback, high-end component-video DVD outputs, built-in MP3/WMA decoding, and compatibility with JPEG image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs so you’ll be able to enjoy a slideshow of your digital pictures right on your television. This model also includes front-panel audio/video inputs to facilitate hookup with a camcorder or gaming console.
Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you’re merely thinking of “one day,” the DVD-V3650 stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture the usage of twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images whilst eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.
The VCR delivers digital auto tracking, hi-fi stereo sound, and quasi-S-VHS (SQPB) playback, which helps you to view S-VHS cassettes–normally only playable on high-end S-VHS machines–in standard VHS resolution. A handy feature called Jet Picture Search maintains a clear image whilst whizzing through tapes at seven times normal speed for SP tapes and 21 times normal speed with SLP recordings. Intro scan, meanwhile, locates the start of each separate recording on a tape and plays the first five seconds before fast-forwarding to the next start point. This handy feature simplifies the process of assessing and labeling unmarked tapes (admit it: you have several, at least).
Probably the greatest component-video outputs (for DVD only) help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, whilst composite- and S-video outputs bring DVD compatibility with nearly any television. The VCR output is composite-video and RF only. A set of left/right analog-audio outputs for both DVD and VCR components channels audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound DVD signals can be routed through the player’s digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.
Another handy feature is EZ View letterbox eliminator, which helps you to enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs–even when you’re watching widescreen DVDs.
