PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme
Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe,
accurate timer recording. With this system, special code
signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals.
These code signals control your video recorder and have
precedence over the advertised times which you may have
preset into the timer. This means that your recorder will start
and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually
start and end — even if the broadcast time of a preset TV
programme is changed from what has been advertised. PDC
is currently available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and
Ch.5, except from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3
operates a PDC service in some areas. All channels intend to
offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme
listing guide for latest information. If the channel you intend
to record does not offer a PDC service your recorder will not
start recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC
to “OFF” if PDC is not available on your selected channel.
