VPS/PDC
VPS (Video Programme System)/
PDC (Programme Delivery Control)
VPS or PDC is a very convenient system which records exactly
from beginning to end of the TV programmes set in timer
recording, even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the
scheduled time due to delayed start or extension of the programme
duration. Also, if a programme is interrupted, for example, some
special news is inserted, the recording will be paused
automatically and resumed when the programme continues.
Depending on the signals sent from the TV stations, the VPS/PDC
system may not work properly even when “VPS/PDC” has been
set to “ON”.
Please check with the broadcasters in your area for details.

≥When the VPS/PDC signal drops out because the broadcast
signal is weak, or when a TV station does not transmit a regular
VPS/PDC signal, the timer recording will be performed in the
normal mode (without VPS/PDC) even if it was programmed for
VPS/PDC.
In this case, even if the timer recording is performed, whatever
has been programmed will not be cancelled at that particular time
but at 4 a.m. the day after tomorrow.
