Remanufactured GoVideo DV2150 Progressive Scan DVD Player/VCR with AutoPlay

CONSUMER ALERT: This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009 to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the U.S.'s transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.

Enjoy movies, music, slideshows, and more on the remanufactured GoVideo DV2150, which combines a progressive scan DVD player with a four-head hi-fi VCR. It's the perfect machine for users who want access to the latest video technologies without sacrificing their old VHS collection, and for folks who want to record from the TV without investing in a more expensive DVD or digital video recorder. Video playback is crisp and impressive thanks to the progressive scan technology, which stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs when connected to an HDTV. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

Though DVDs are clearly the feature attraction, the DV2150 also plays several other audio and video formats, including audio CDs, CD-R/RWs, DVD-R/RWs, DVD+R/RWs, and MP3 or JPEG files recorded on a CD-R/RW disc. An added benefit stems from GoVideo's AutoPlay feature, which automatically skips ads, trailers, and menus when you first insert a disc, jumping instead to the start of the movie. The VCR portion, meanwhile, offers playback of traditional and home-recorded VHS tapes, along with recording from either the TV or DVD player. It even lets users watch a DVD and record a TV program on VHS at the same time. In addition, both slow-motion and still-frame images look smooth and clear thanks to the four 19-micron heads, which ensure the best possible picture when recording.

Audio-wise, the device supports 5.1-channel surround sound through its built-in Dolby Digital and DTS audio outputs, along with virtual 3-D surround. Additional features include a 181-channel cable-ready TV tuner with an eight-event/one-year timer; multilanguage onscreen programming in English, French, or Spanish; component, S-video, and composite outputs; two stereo RCA audio outputs; and a full-function remote control that operates both the DVD and VCR portions.

The DV2150 measures 17 by 3.6 by 10 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty on labor.
