DVD Recorder Combo

DVD Recorder Combo Application

DVD recorders with hard disk drives or added set-top box functionality are becoming increasingly popular in Japan and across Europe. The complexities of the DVD recorder market multiply as manufacturers include these popular combination products in their product line.

Combination products with hard disk drives or PVR (personal video recorder) functionality require concurrences in real-time that are transparent to the user. With its unique Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), LSI delivers seamless concurrency activities, such as recording one program in the background while time-shifting (rewinding, fast-forwarding or pausing) another live channel.

Below is an example of a combination DVD recorder with hard disk drive and support for DVB (digital video broadcasting) transmissions.
