Pioneer launches its new multiple format DVD writer. The DVR-108 is the industry's first DVD writer to support 16x write speeds on both DVD-R/+R* along with the option to write at 4x speed on Double Layer media** . This extends Pioneer's track record of establishing key performance benchmarks when introducing new DVD writers.
With the facility to write 4.7GB of data to write-once media in approx. seven minutes, or store up to 8.5GB on Double Layer media, the DVR-108 enhances a wide range of DVD applications including the authoring, editing and storing of video files, developing digital music catalogues, building image libraries and backing up data.

1.Liquid Crystal Tilt / Thickness Compensator
Provides accurate, reliable READ/WRITE performance with a variety of disc characteristics. The Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator is an ideal solution for irregularly curved, thin/thick, and double layer discs.
2.Smart Laser Driver
Smart Laser Driver: Write strategy control circuitry positioned in close proximity to the writing laser limits signal delay, allowing high quality recording at high speed.
