Panasonic introduces the DMP-BD70V, the world’s first dual-deck VHS-Blu-ray player. This Blu-ray player can play VHS, CD, DVD and of course Full HD Blu-ray discs. It can do 1080p up-conversion for all video formats.
Panasonic’s DMP-BD70V, like its new HDTVs and multimedia products, supports the VIERA Cast for internet content. It comes with Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio Essential audio decoder and delivers 7.1-channel surround sound.
The DMP-BD70V has a SD memory that allows image and HD video playback. This VHS-Blu-ray dual format player has the PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus processor for enhanced picture quality. It supports VIERA Link and has HDMI output.
Panasonic DMP-BD70V will be available in April for $399.95.
Good combo by playback Blu-ray, VHS, DVD in one player. If they could add ‘recording program from TV’, this is should be a great perfect combo
Of course, we all know that VHS is lacking in high-quality video, but I think it will still be exciting to watch our old VHS videocassettes in 1080p, instead of any of the blocky picture in 480p or the choppy image in standard 480i. How’s that sound?
can you record on the vhs side? i read somewhere this machine has no recording capabilities but surely panasonic wouldnt do this.if thats the case,panasonic can keep it
