nition Video onto Removable USB Media
Instant Video Recording to USB Memory Devices = A Speedier and Superior
Solution
The Gefen SD Personal Video Recorder (or SD-PVR) allows consumers to
implement the functions of a traditional video tape recorder or DVD recorder, but
in a faster, simpler and more ef
fi
cient way using USB
fl
ash or USB hard-drive
media. By using removable USB devices, consumers can fully exploit instant ac-
cessibility and portability of digital recordings in a way not previously possible.
You won’t miss the action any more with the Gefen SD-PVR. With a touch of the
IR Remote, you’ll be able to instantly begin recording programs or video seg-
ments when inspiration strikes you. With the capacity to review, fast forward,
fast backwards, pause, and erase videos, you’ll have unprecedented
fl
exibility in
capturing what you want, when you want!
Your Personal Multimedia Playback Center
The Gefen SD-PVR is not just for recording video. You can connect any USB de-
vice and scan it for music or videos, even digital picture albums, then play back
previously recorded clips and rename or move them.
How It Works
Multiple Video Sources and Displays
The PVR is easy to use. You simply connect your video source(s) to one or all
of the SD-PVR’s 3 inputs, then connect the Display on any of the up to 3 video
output ports (Composite, Component and S-Video). Once the Source(s), the SD-
PVR and the Display are powered and connected, you simply select the video
source and function that you want using the infrared (IR) remote. If you want to
create
fi
rst-time settings for instant recording and other capabilities, you can go
into the friendly On-Screen Display and adjust the settings.
