Terapin CD Video / Audio Recorder VCD TX0002
Terapin Technology's TX-0002 audio/video CD recorder
carries all the convenience of a full-featured
standalone/component audio CD recorder and adds the
choice ability to record (and play) video CDs,
too--essentially a lesser version of the DVD-Video disc
and compatible with most DVD players.
VCD
traffics in MPEG1 video with resolution of either 352 x
240 (in NTSC) or 352 x 288 (in PAL), or approximately
VHS quality.
You can store about 74 minutes of audio/video on a VCD
and the traditional 80 minutes on a 700 MB audio-only
disc.
As simple to use as a VCR, the TX-0002 captures
composite- and S-video sources from a camcorder, VCR,
broadcast TV (through cable-box or VCR connection), DVD
player (with applicable non-Macrovision-protected
discs).
You can program each CD with up to 99 tracks, convenient
reference points to make video or audio segments easy to
navigate. When it comes to choosing blank media, be
aware that you can use affordable data/computer-grade
CD-R and rewriteable CD-RW discs when recording VCDs but
will need to use designated "audio" or "music"
CD-R/CD-RW discs for creating audio-only CDs.
As
an audio recorder, the unit accepts analog and
digital-audio inputs (via coaxial or optical terminals)
from CDs, DVDs, cassette tapes, vinyl records, or
tuners.
(Be sure to use the phono input on your receiver or
integrated amplifier, rather than routing a turntable
directly into the TX-0002.) You can compile tracks from
various audio CDs onto a single new CD. Front-panel AV
inputs foster simple connections with camcorders, VCRs,
MP3 players, minidisc players, and other devices.
Other
features include a full onscreen display, Disc View
(which splits the screen and the action into nine video
frames, allowing quick scene selection), time search,
slow motion and fast forward/rewind playback (at three
different speeds), compatibility with both American NTSC
and European PAL video formats, and automatic record
synchronization (1 track or all tracks) from external
digital-audio sources via the coaxial or optical inputs
(audio applications only).
Features:
Allows you to record a full 74 minute motion video with
audio onto a digital CD format i.e. CD-Recordable or
CD-Rewritable.
Playback the recordings on compatible CD players, DVD
players and multimedia computers.
Full OSD (On-Screen Display) on PCs and TVs
Special Video Playback Functions:
Disc View - splits the screen into nine video frames and
action slides through these frames.
This allows you to quickly choose your scene out of a
track.
Time Search - plays back from a specific time on the
disc. Slow Motion and Fast Forward/Rewind Playback at 3
different speeds each.
Multi-system - Compatible with both American NTSC and
European PAL video formats.
For audio applications, automatic record-synchronization
(1 track or all tracks) from external digital audio
source via its coaxial or optical inputs.
