Introduction

The VRD-VC20 is Sony's 2nd generation stand-alone DVD recorder. The VRD-VC20 adds a DV (1394) digital video input and dual layer writing capability to the previous generation VRD-VC10. The VRD-VC20, like similar products, is directed at the consumer who has amassed a library of analog video recordings and would like to convert them directly to a DVD but without connecting to a PC.  Unlike a combination VCR / DVD recorder, the VRD-VC20 contains no tape drive and is therefore very compact.  When not performing as a stand-alone DVD recorder, the VRD-VC20 connects to a PC for general DVD recorder duty.
