Copy from Hard Disk to recordable DVD
TIPS:  Ensure that there is suffi cient space available on the recordable DVD before recording. 
You have to fi nalise the DVD±R before it can be played on other players, see page 72.
IMPORTANT!
–  It is not possible to record the TV 
programmes or the scheduled timer 
programmes directly to a 
recordable DVD.  You can only 
record it to the HDD and then copy  
to a recordable DVD.
–  Copy protected (Copy-Once or 
Copy-Never) movies and DVD Videos 
cannot be copied to the HDD.
About copying 
You can copy a recorded title from the 
HDD (hard disk drive) to a recordable 
DVD.
The time required for copying from HDD 
to a recordable DVD depends on the 
recording mode of the HDD recordings.  
It is not possible to change the recording 
mode for the copying process. It is 
therefore important that you choose the 
appropriate recording mode when you 
set up the recording to the HDD.
The copying process is done at a higher 
speed than the recording. The maximum 
copying speed is up to 2x.  You cannot 
shorten the time required for recoding 
even with high-speed discs.

Discs for recording
Three different types of DVD recordable 
discs can be used with this recorder:
 
DVD±RW (DVD Rewritable)
–  Discs that are re-writable can be used 
for multiple recordings once existing data 
is erased.
 
DVD±R (DVD Recordable)
–  Discs can only be used for a single 
recording. Each new recording is always 
added at the end of all previous 
recordings as existing recordings cannot 
be overwritten.
–  Editing can be done on DVD±R discs 
as long as they have not been fi nalised.
–  You can also delete unwanted 
recordings. However, the disc space 
occupied by the deleted recordings 
cannot be recovered for further 
recording.
–  To play a DVD±R disc on other DVD 
players, it must be fi nalised (see page 72). 
After this is done, no more data can be 
added to the disc.
 
DVD+R DL (DVD+R Double Layer)
–  It contains the same usage as DVD+R, 
the only difference is the capacity- 8.5GB. 
It offers two recordable layers on a single 
DVD disc.  The layers are accessible from 
the same side of the disc, so recording 
can occur completely uninterrupted.
