The JVC DR-MV150B is a DVD/VCR recorder announced by JVC on January 9th of 2009. It has a built-in ATSC tuner which makes it easy to record high definition TV programs without needing to use cables or other devices scheduling programs to get the desired results. The JVC DR-MV150B includes component and S-Video outputs, composite outputs and inputs, and coaxial and optical outputs. It has VHS-to-DVD dubbing and has an 1080p upconversion through HDMI for both the VHS and the DVD content, meaning you can convert your non HDMI shows to a better quality. It has a front DV panel input to connect a camcorder and transfer the information to DVD or VHS. The JVC DR-MV150B is more expensive than its fellow recorder, the DR-MV80B.
