Enjoy all your favorite DVD movies in flicker-free presentation and record your favorite TV programs to disc–via the built-in NTSC TV tuner–with the Philips DVDR3355/37 DVD Recorder. Philips makes it easy to create recordings and helps eliminate any confusion over disc format with dual-media support, enabling you to use DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs to record up to six hours of MPEG2 compressed video on a single-sided disc. For playback, it’s compatible with VCD, SVCD, CD-R/RW, MP3-CD, and MP3-DVD disc formats and the EG2, MPEG1, Divx (3.11/4/5/6.x), and MPEG4 compression formats. It also supports simultaneous playback of JPEG pictures and MP3 music, enabling you to run a photo slideshow with music playing in the background. For setting up timed recordings, the DVDR3355/37 uses the VCR Plus+ system. All you need to do to program your video recorder is to enter the “Pluscode”–a single code of up to nine digits (but usually less)–that is printed next to each TV program in most TV guides. This unit also includes a Firewire port (also known as i.LINK and IEEE 1394) on the front, enabling you to easily connect your digital video camcorder and download video and audio directly to disc in their original digital quality. Recording and disc editing features include chapter marker, insertion, divide, erase, manual chapter marking, one-touch record, and selectable index pictures. Other features include a 20-event, 1-month programmable recording, daily/weekly repeat recording, Dolby Digital encoding, and tri-lingual menu display (English, French, Spanish). It offers the following video and audio connections: Composite AV (RCA) In: 2 (1 front) Composite AV (RCA) Out: 1 S-Video In: 2 (1 front) S-Video Out: 1 Component Video Out (Y PB PR): 1 RF In: 1 Coaxial digital audio Out: 1 Firewire: 1 What’s in the Box DVD player/recorder, remote control (with batteries), AV cable, RF cable, printed operating instructions

Review for thePhilips DVDR3355/37 DVD Recorder with 8 Hour Digital Video Recording
Initially I thought it was a good idea to purchase a refurbish DVD player.I’ve always enjoyed the Phillips brand of products and I thought it would be a good idea to purchase this…

NEVER BUY PHILIPS!!!
If you’re thinking about buying a Philips, THINK AGAIN!! Their products are absolutely TERRIBLE, and their customer service and policies are even WORSE.

Good recorder for the price
I don’t see what the problem is. I’ve had this model for a few months now and have had no unexpected problems.

Why make DVD recorders when you can’t make them right?
I made the fatal error to buy a philips recorder last year. it started screwing up after 7 (!) recordings so I took it back.
