DVD Recorder Overview

Notes for recording

• The recording times shown are not exact because the
recorder uses variable bit-rate video compression.
This means that the exact recording time will depend
on the material being recorded.
• When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is
poor or the picture contains interference, the record-
ing times may be shorter.
• If you record still pictures or audio only, the recording
time may be longer.
• The displayed times for recording and time remaining
may not always add up to exactly the length of the
disc.
• The recording time available may decrease if you
heavily edit a disc.
• If using a DVD-RW disc, make sure you change the
recording format (Video mode or VR mode) before
you record anything on the disc. See page 25 (Disc
Format) for how to do this.
• When using a DVD-R disc, you can keep recording
until the disc is full, or until you finalize the disc.
Before you start a recording session, check the
amount of recording time left on the disc.
• When using a DVD-RW disc in Video mode, recording
time available will only increase if you erase the last
title recorded on the disc.
• The Erase Title option in the Original (Title) menu only
hides the title, it does not actually erase the title from
the disc and increase the recording time available
(except for the last recorded title on a DVD-RW disc
in Video mode).

Recording TV audio channels

This recorder can record either NICAM or regular audio.
If the NICAM setting (page 19) is set to Auto, then if the
broadcast is NICAM, you can record the NICAM audio.
If the broadcast is non-NICAM, the regular audio is
always recorded.

What is 'CPRM'?

CPRM is a copy protection system (with scramble sys-
tem) only allowing the recording of 'copy once' broad-
cast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for
Recordable Media.
This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that
you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you
cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM
recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs format-
ted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be
played on players that are specifically compatible with
CPRM.
