录  像

  现在,人人都听说过数字化视频光盘（数码影碟），即DVD。电影公司不断地大量制造出这种数码影碟，而数码发烧友消费群也十分狂热，使得这种新制式成为历史上发展最快的发明之一。目前，先锋------立体声音响设备制造商--------正在推出数码影碟读写器来刺激DVD消费。你可以用这种器材来录或播放电视节目。

 “它们用数码声音和数码影像进行录制，声质比普通家用录像系统优越两倍。现在我们正在制做数码影像。”

  可录DVD正是一项可用来录制电视的新科技之一，像TIVO这样的硬驱录像机也是相当流行的，但用TIVO录制的东西不能移动，你不能复制一份拿到朋友家里看。因为它被锁在装置里面；而可录DVD则可从一个播放器移到别一个播放器。唯一你做不到的事情是录制其它电影。

“你不能录制一些版权保护限制的东西，如果机器发现有任何形式的巨式影像或复制保护，它就不让你录制。”

  可录DVD比家用录像带更容易保存，而且它们可加上索引，你可以在同一张碟上录上几个不同的节目，然后不用快进或快退，就可以即时跳到你想看的节目上。
