New ARCHOS AV 700 Mobile DVR

The new ARCHOS AV 700 Mobile Digital Video Recorder (DVR) converges the mobility and wide screen of a portable DVD player, with the video recording and scheduling features of a DVR. The ARCHOS AV 700 is the only portable video player to enable direct video recording onto a 100-gigabyte hard drive, which makes up to 400 hours of video or 250 movies.





The ARCHOS AV 700 Mobile DVR is able to digitally record TV programs, movies directly from a TV, VCR, DVD player, cable box or satellite receiver using the new ARCHOS TV Docking Pod. The new Docking Pod attaches to the AV 700 and connects directly to your video source, allowing TV shows and movies to be recorded easily onto the device. The AV 700 encodes in and plays back MPEG-4 videos with MP3 stereo sound.

The Archos AV 700 also allows you to transfer home movies onto the device using the USB Host port connected to a camcorder.

With the AV 700, you can also schedule recordings for the week or month ahead, just as you would a standard DVR. Once programs are scheduled on the device, the integrated AV 700 Scheduler controls the tuner inside your VCR, cable box or satellite receiver to automatically adjust the channel and record based on the time and duration of the schedule.
