Programme Delivery Control (PDC)
The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) system
adjusts the start and end times of a timer record
event. This can be particularly useful with sports
events which may run over into extra time. The PDC
signal is transmitted by the broadcaster and this
controls your video recorder’s timer. Currently only a
limited number of TV companies transmit PDC
signals. Please make sure that when recording from
channels that do not broadcast PDC that you turn
PDC OFF.
