Notes:
The quality and recording time are interdependent. The better
the quality, the more memory the recording requires. This
means that the recording time is shorter in high quality mode
than in standard quality mode.
The recording quality (HQ, SP, SP+, LP, EP, SLP or SEP) is selected
automatically during playback.
Playback is viewed with the recording quality that was selected
for the recording.
