∫ Recording

≥You can record up to 250 programmes on HDD, 99 on a disc. 

(1 programme may be recorded continuously for 6 hours at its 
maximum.)

≥[HDD] 

- When a programme is being recorded, or the unit is on standby 

for timer recording, only programmes of the same encoding 
system as selected in “TV System” (i.e. either PAL or NTSC) 
(page 55) can be played.

≥DVD-R has limitations on recording (page 8).
≥In RGB recording, set “AV2 Input” to “RGB (PAL only)”. (page 55)

ªRecording/Dubbing/Moving of a programme

This unit incorporates copyright protection technology for recording 
equipment known as CPRM (page 8). With some programmes 
recording, dubbing and/or moving may not be possible.

°

1

You can dub pictures on DVD-R in High Speed if you set “DVD-R 
Rec for High Speed mode” to “On” (page 53).

°

2

If you set “MPEG4 Rec Mode” (page 53) to “SF”, “F”, “N” or “E” 
in advance, you can record SD VIDEO (MPEG4) simultaneously 
with the recording of the programme.

°

3

When recording an SD VIDEO (MPEG4) programme without 
recording limits after recording programmes with recording 
limits, the first 10 seconds or around of the SD VIDEO (MPEG4) 
programme may not be recorded.

°

4

You can dub except SD VIDEO (MPEG4).

°

5

You can dub SD VIDEO (MPEG4) only.

°

6

You cannot record or dub programmes with recording limits as 
SD VIDEO (MPEG4).

°

Pictures are erased from HDD when moving them to DVD-RAM.

°

8

It can be dubbed to the HDD but cannot be played back.

Move:
This is when a programme is moved to another storage media. 
The original programme will be erased.

≥You can play DVD-R on compatible DVD players by finalizing 

them on this unit, effectively making them into DVD-Video.

≥The video is recorded in a 4:3 aspect irrespective of the video 

signal input.

When using DVD-R or discs with LPCM recording or 
setting “DVD-R Rec for High Speed mode” to “On”

≥When recording bilingual TV broadcast while receiving a 

You can use the SETUP menus to select which audio type is 
recorded, either “M1” or “M2”. “M1” is the default setting. (page 54, 
“Sound”— “Bilingual Audio Selection”)

≥When recording bilingual audio with connecting to a 

Select the audio type either “M1” or “M2” on the connected 
devices. (You cannot select the audio type on this unit.)

≥During play
The audio type selected for recording is played. This is displayed 
as “LR”.

ªRecording sound using LPCM

To obtain higher quality recordings using LPCM, prepare as 
follows:
1) Select “LPCM” in the SETUP menu, “Sound”— “Audio Mode 

for XP Recording” (page 54).

2) Set recording mode to “XP”.

Note
≥Sound recordings under LPCM require more information than 

usual. Consequently the picture quality of LPCM recordings may 
be less than that of normal XP mode recordings.

[HDD] [RAM] [DVD-R]
The unit calculates a recording rate that enables the recording to fit 
in the time you set (within the remaining time on the disc) with the 
best picture quality.
