caption_attribution_description: English: torne ISDB-T tuner peripheral for the PlayStation 3 Japanese: PS3で地上デジタル放送が録画できるデジタルチューナーの｢torne｣
context_page_description: PlayTV is a HDTV/DVR add-on unit for the PlayStation 3 video game console. It allows the PS3 to act as an HDTV or DTV receiver as well as a digital video recorder for recording television programmes to the hard drive for later viewing. The application will only start up with the DVB-T adaptor connected.
context_section_description: torne (トルネ) (CECH-ZD1J) is an ISDB-T tuner peripheral for the Japanese market which, like PlayTV, comes with DVR software. It was first announced on 14 January 2010 for release on 18 March of the same year.
  Like PlayTV, it is capable of recording and playing back live TV, even while in a game or playing other media (e.g. a DVD or Blu-ray Disc) and can be accessed on PSP via remote play.
  Unlike PlayTV, torne features PS3 trophy support.
  
  In June 2010 Sony released torne software version 2.00, which enables MPEG-4 AVC compression, allowing recordings to be compressed down to a third of their original size as captured MPEG-2 streams. It will also add the ability to watch, fast-forward and rewind programs while they are still recording and to update the user's PSN status.
