Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

DVD Recorder with HDD (250GB) and Digital Tuner and VHS VCR and SD Memory Card Slot and USB Terminal. Panasonic has developed the DMR-EX98V with even higher image quality. Picture quality is better. DVB-T Adaptive Noise Reduction detects and removes the block noise that often occurs in digital broadcasts, to produce beautiful images with minimal noise. And the enhanced quality of 1080p Up-Conversion and rich color gradation of Deep Colour compatibility are seen in deeper, higher-resolution images. The Diagonal Processing automatically detects diagonal lines in motion images, and converts them to sharp lines.

The new VIERA Link function of the DMR-EX98V is more advanced. Auto Preset Download does away with the need to make channel and other initial the DMR-EX98V settings. Direct TV Rec. lets the user start recording the TV program that is currently being watched by simply pressing the VIERA Link button on the VIERA remote and selecting Direct TV Rec. Pause Live TV pauses a TV program with the same ease as pausing a DVD disc. The rest of the program can then be watched at a later time, right from the point where it was paused.

The DMR-EX98V is equipped with a USB terminal and an SD card slot, so images from a digital still camera can be easily transferred. A large-capacity hard disk drive lets users store music data and turns the DMR-EX98V into a virtual jukebox. It supports gracenote®, in short, the DMR-EX98V goes far beyond the point of easy video entertainment to function as a personal digital media server.

To enjoy viewing movies recorded on an SD Memory Card, simply copy the MPEG2 Movie data to the hard disk drive or DVD-RAM and then play back. also the DMR-EX98V automatically recognizes images that you've uploaded from SD Memory Card.

In the SP mode recording, 384Kbps high sound quality recording provides audio quality approaching that of commercially available the DMR-EX98V movie software. Even with music containing a wide range of tones, such as orchestral performances, the sound of individual instruments are beautifully reproduced.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product, 29 Dec 2008
    By Len Eschle (Newcastle upon Tyne, UK) - See all my reviews
    I bought a Panasonic DMR-EX768 from Amazon a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, it wouldn't recognise any DVDs so I returned it. As usual Amazon's service was fantastic. I received a full refund (including p & p) within three days of returning the DMR-EX768. Judging by other reviews, I was just unlucky with the machine I received.

    As I still wanted a HDD/DVD recorder, I decided to try the DMR-EX98VEB, which I bought from Crampton and Moore. I ordered it on Saturday 13 December 2008, and it was delivered on Wednesday 17 December (my only gripe is that Crampton and Moore emailed me to advise of delivery on 16 December, but it was delivered by TNT who said this was not the case).

    The DMR-EX98VEB is a fabulous product. It copies between VHS/HDD/DVD. It accepts all types of recordable DVD. The DMR-EX98VEB also has a SD card slot, a USB port, and a DV In terminal for capturing video from a digital camcorder. There is also a 1 GB memory stick included, through which I can view DivX movies captured from my PC.

    Copying between VHS/HDD/DVD could not be simpler. I have copied several VHS tapes to the HDD, edited out the bits I did not want to keep and transferred the recordings to DVD-RW. After finalising the DVD-RWs, I have been able to play the DVDs in my own Toshiba DVD player, the DVD player in an old Alba all-in-one portable TV/DVD player, and my sister's Sony DVD player. (Please note you cannot transfer from pre-recorded VHS tapes or DVDs). Since I have several dozen VHS tapes taking up masses of room, I'm looking forward to freeing up some much needed storage space by transferring pretty much everything to DVD. You can get the contents of one 4 hour VHS tape onto DVD using the LP mode, and the picture quality is good.

    The DMR-EX98VEB only has a single Freeview tuner, but as it's hooked up to my HD Ready IDTV and Sky HD box, this is not a problem for me, but might be if you do not have satellite/cable and your TV only accepts analogue signals. The picture quality of pre-recorded DVDs is fantastic. I am very pleased with this product and recommend it to anyone looking for a single piece of kit with which to copy between DVD and VHS and who has around £350.00 to spare.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Good features but not simple to use, 15 Jan 2009
    By R. Phillips (Devon, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Bought this to replace VHS recorder while adding DVD record and HDD facility. After less than a week in use, the VHS gave up so needed a replacement. By then had copied around 25 hours various music concerts to HDD and dumped tapes. Mistake as then needed to backup everything on HDD to DVDs before getting the replacement.

    Doesn't like my Boots DVD+R DVD blanks. Don't know if it is a problem with the disks or the machine doesn't really like +R disks. Works fine with Boots DVD-RW disks.

    Recorded programs look great on my Panasonic 32inch TV and it picks up codes to stop and start recording programs correctly when times vary from published on most channels.

    Lacks some features which I would consider basic on an HDD device (comparing to my TIVO now). No "replay" button to replay the last few seconds of what you are watching. Cannot jump to end and rewind, e.g. record news and want to see weather at end of transmission. Need to fast forward through the whole program. When fast forwarding, can only increase speed. If on fastest setting and want to slow it down a bit, have to press PLAY then start pressing the fast forward until you reach the speed you want. Just not thought through in my opinion.

    TIVO software still far superior, but not available in UK at the moment so given that, this is an OK product, if a little pricey. Hope the replacement is more robust than the first box. If not, it is going back for good.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Panasonic DMREX98 review August 2009, 1 Sep 2009
    By M. Ansell - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This is and excellent item. The good features are:- massive hard drive, easy use timer complete with series link (save putting each program day by day) the remote was easy to use and I installed it very quickly. On the slightly down side it is slow to start up (Hello), and the Fan can be a little noticable, but on the whole i am very pleased with the unit.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Superb product with extensive features. Best available on the market.
    There's no other product that offers such extensive features or offers so many DVD writing formats, including DVD-RAM.
