Pioneer has unveiled its DVR-A12J DVD writer. The Pioneer DVR-A12J can write Dual Layer DVD+/-R media at up to 10x write speed and single-layer DVD media at 18x, even DVD-RAM at 12x. It comes with the Labelflash technology which is similar to LightScribe. The DVR-A12J lineup comes in piano black, silver, and white colors.
Other technologies of the new drives include the "UltraDRA" (Dynamic Resonance Absorber), buffer under run protection, the "Precision recording technology", and the "PowerRead" function. The later technology has been developed by Japanese Buffalo and allows scratched DVD media to be read correctly by the drive.
The Japanese retail package includes Cyberlink PowerDVD v6 for DVD playback, PowerProducer v3 for DVD/CD authoring, Power2Go v5, InstantBurn v5 for packet writing, PowerBackup v2 for personal backup, Medi@Show v3, LabelPrint v2 software that supports the Labelflash technology and Pioneer's Quiet sound utility, which limits the disc's rotation speed for quiet playback.
Pioneer will not release the DVR-A12J series overseas, but a variation of the same drive dubbed DVR-112 (for OEMs) should be expected early 2007 in Europe and U.S.
