Timer recording FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
• Even though the timer is set, the recorder
d
oesn’t start
recording!
Check that the disc loaded is recordable, not locked
(see
Lock Disc
on page 50), and that there are fewer
than 99 titles already on the DVD.
• The recorder won’t let me enter a timer program! Why
not?
You can’t enter a timer program if the clock isn’t set.
• What happens when two or more timer programs
overlap?
Basically, the program with the earlier recording start
time has priority. However, the recorder will start
recording the program with the later start time after
the earlier program is finished. If two programs have
the same times (but different channels, for example),
the program displayed higher up in the list in the
timer recording screen has priority.
