The new Polaroid DRM-2001G DVD recorder is available at Wal-Mart stores, the world's largest retail company.

Building on Polaroid's strength in preserving memories, the Polaroid DRM-2001G DVD recorder with YesDVD technology is designed to make it easy for consumers to transfer personal videos to DVD while preserving and enhancing the quality of the video. The Polaroid recorder includes automatic production of YesDVD discs that feature professional onscreen DVD menus with intelligently-selected chapters and picture thumbnails for easy navigation. Highlights of the best moments on the disc are used to automatically create music videos.

YesDVD software, enabled by the LSI DoMiNo media processor, uses state-of-the-art scene detection software to determine the natural chapter points and find the first clear image in the video segment to represent that chapter. Once the YesDVD is created on the Polaroid unit, the disc can be placed in the DVD-ROM drive of the consumer's PC to print a color DVD case coversheet for a visual index that makes it easy to locate the correct video in home libraries.

The Polaroid DRM-2001G DVD recorder incorporates high-quality video processing capabilities enabled by LSI silicon. The line of DoMiNo DVD recorder processors consists of full-featured, highly integrated DVD recorder solutions that address worldwide requirements. Driving continued market growth, the DoMiNo processors enable approximately 45% of the DVD recorder market and include unique features such as the YesDVD software and proprietary processing capabilities that enable clearer video, particularly when transferring analog content, like VHS tapes, to DVD discs.
