•
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 Delete Title option in the Title List
(Original) 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).
•
Overwrite recording is available using
DVD+RWs.
•
When using a DVD+R/RW, the recorder will
execute the Menu-making operation to
update the new title and editing when you
remove the disc from the recorder.
Recording time and picture quality
There are four preset recording quality modes:
•
XP – Highest quality setting, gives about 1
hour 20 minutes of recording time on a DVD
(4.7GB).
•
SP – Default quality, sufficient for most
applications, gives about 2 hours of recording
time on a DVD (4.7GB).
•
LP – Slightly lower video quality, gives about
4 hour of recording time on a DVD disc
(4.7GB).
•
EP – Lowest video quality, gives about 6 hour
of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB). You may
see a fragmented picture when playing back
in EP mode.
Restrictions on video recording
•
You cannot record copy-protected video
using your recorder. Copy-protected video
includes video DVDs and some satellite
broadcasts. If copy-protected material is
encountered during a recording, the
recording pauses or stops automatically and
an error message is displayed on-screen.
•
Video that is 'copy-once only' can only be
recorded using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode
with CPRM (see below).
CPRM copy protection
CPRM is a copy protection system (with
scramble system) only allowing the recording of
'copy once' broadcast programs. CPRM stands
for Content Protection for Recordable Media.
Your 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-RWs formatted in VR mode and
CPRM recordings can only be played on players
that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
