TORONTO – Instant replays of the upcoming NHL hockey playoffs will be provided with the help of Bell Canada’s high-definition (HD) personal video recorder (PVR) digital TV receivers, it was announced Monday.
The receivers will be housed in a video room in Toronto, the headquarters where all goals are reviewed.
“We are pleased to partner with Bell ExpressVu and their leading HD PVR technology for the excitement and drama that is the Stanley Cup playoffs,” said Keith Wachtel, NHL senior VP of corporate sales and marketing. TThe viewer’s experience is brought to a whole new level with this technology.”
Kevin Crull, President, Bell Residential services, added, “With exceptional HD picture quality, capacity to record 200 hours of programming and the ability to pause live TV, fast forward, fast reverse and view in slow motion, it’s no wonder that Bell’s HD PVR is the technology of choice for the NHL playoffs.”
Available nationally Bell’s latest HD PVR, the dual tuner 9242, is capable of recording up to 30 hours of HD content and 200 hours of standard definition (SD) programming and can be purchased outright for $599 or on rental basis for $20 per month.
The 9242 HD PVR is also able to view and record independent programming on two televisions in two different rooms from one receiver.
