i.LINK Connection JVC DVD recorders come with i.LINK terminal, which enables digital connection with other equipment including MiniDV video cameras. The input DV signal is directly converted to MPEG-2 format -- a digital-to-digital conversion which ensures high-quality images with less noise, less loss, and highly accurate details. This connection also lets you control the DV unit through the i.LINK cable, using the DVD recorder's remote so you won't have to bother with using two sets of controls.
