Samsung DVD-R135 DVD Recorder description
Samsung's stylishly black DVD-R135 puts the power, quality, and convenience of digital video recording and playback at your fingertips. The stylish, slender component stands less than 2.5 inches tall but delivers everything from convenient DVD recording (write-once DVD-R and rewritable DVD-RW) to progressive-scan video and playback of MP3 music and JPEG digital-photo files. It's also an "upconverting" DVD player, which boosts the standard 480 lines of resolution from a DVD disc up to a high-def 1080i (interlaced) picture. This unit also offers CM (commercial) advance, enabling you to skip ads from recorded TV programming recorded.

A front-panel DV (FireWire IEEE 1394) input enables you to connect the family video camcorder and edit and record footage directly to a DVD disc--all via a single cable and without losing image quality. The EVQ (Enhanced Video Quality) feature provides sharper images and truer color reproduction for both movies and home videos. EVQ reduces pixel noise produced during digital signal processing, mitigates the cross color phenomenon occasionally produced by separation of Y & C signal.

You can program recording via the timer, or choose easy one-touch recording (initiating playback at 30 minutes and adding 30 minutes with each additional press of the button, up to the available disc time or 240 minutes, whichever is sooner). Chapters are created when you record your favorite TV show or video clips from a camcorder onto a DVD disc. The chapters are automatically created, which eliminates wasted time searching the whole DVD to find the right spot. Up to 99 titles can be recorded onto one disc. With the simple and easy edit function menu, you can delete, copy, rename, and lock, among other things. You can also create a playlist and edit video in a specific sequence.

It offers the following connection options:

Composite video: 1 out
S-Video: 1 out
Component video: 1 out
Firewire: 1 in
RF: 1 in, 1 out
Analog audio: 2 in, 2 out
Coaxial digital audio: 1 out
Optical digital audio: 1 out

Tech Talk
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

Broken Piece of Trash

I've owned the R135 for about 8 months now, it was great for the first 4. Now I'm lucky if I can get it to read a store bought DVD (often times straight out of it's original packaging) after 3 or 4 attempts. I like to image that blowing in the slot is what gets it working again (like the old Super NES days), but I think it's all pretty random and it just makes me feel better to do so while I turn it on and off.

The player is simply put, a sleek looking piece of trash. After 4 months of intermittent operation, it now only works a quarter of the time. This is absolutely unacceptable! I bought a different player more than 6 years ago and it's not feature rich, but the damn thing still flawlessly performs it's primary function. This will be the *last* Samsung product I will ever subject myself to you, do yourself a favor and pass this one up regardless of how low the price goes.
