Panasonic Universal Disc Recorder

Complete your home theater system with this Panasonic universal disc recorder

Panasonic's DMR-ES15 is a truly universal recorder that will accept software discs in practically every format

You can record and playback a variety of formats including DVD-RAM, DVD-/+R, DVD-/+RW and even the latest dual-layer discs that double your recording time

Not only does this make shopping for software easier, but it also gives you extra versatility with recordings

You can use Panasonic's preferred DVD-RAM to make edited and time slip recordings, -/+RW for temporary or portable recordings and -/+R discs for permanent copies

The list of playback formats stretches from standard DVD and CDs to encoded discs and even DVD-Audio, although playback is restricted to two channels only

Several recording modes each of which trade overall picture quality with recording capacity

Using the highest quality (XP) mode gives you an hour's recording on a standard 4.7GB disc; with SP you get 2 hours; LP gives you 4 hours and EP provides 8 hours

The Disc Navigator menu system is expertly organized using thumbnail images to easily recognize recordings

Also features a host of post-editing features, especially using the hard-disk nature of DVD-RAM discs, that let you delete, name, protect and organize recordings

Measures 17 inches wide x 10 inches deep x 2.5 inches high
