General Features
The HDD (Hard Disk Drive) & DVD RECORDER allows
you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD-
RAM/-RW/-R discs or on the HDD. You can also edit
digital images on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs or HDD.
HDD Recording
You can record up to 208 hours of video (in Extend EP
mode) on the internal 120GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD).
With both recordable DVD and a high-capacity HDD in the
same recorder, you have the flexibility to keep recordings
on the HDD for quick access anytime, or record to DVD
for archiving or playing on other DVD players.
Copy between HDD and DVD
You can copy recordings from the HDD to recordable
DVD, or from DVD to the HDD. Usually you can use the
high speed copy feature.
You can also choose to copy material at a different
recording quality from the original. For example, you might
want to copy at XP mode (highest quality) recording on
the HDD to SP (standard play) quality on a DVD so that
you can fit other recordings on the same disc.
Simultaneous Recording and Playback
Playback and recording for both the DVD and the built-in
hard disk drive (HDD) are completely independent. For
example you can record a broadcast program to either a
recordable DVD or the HDD, while watching another
recording you already made on the same DVD or on the
HDD.
High quality digital audio and video recording and
playback
Record up to 16-hours of video with a double sided 9.4
GB DVD-RAM disc, up to 8-hours of video with a 4.7 GB
DVD-RAM/-RW/-R disc, up to 208 hours of video with the
HDD, depending on the recording mode.
Selectable Recording Mode
You can set your HDD & DVD RECORDER to one of four
different recording speeds, each varying in recording
quality and length. EP (6Hr or 8Hr) mode yields the most
recording time, LP & SP modes provide less recording
time with higher quality recording, XP mode gives you the
highest quality recording.
Creating a DVD video title using DVD-RW/-R disc
With the HDD & DVD RECORDER, you can create your
own DVD Video titles on 4.7 GB DVD-RW/-R discs.
Copying data from a digital camcorder using a DV
input jack
Record DV Device video onto HDD, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW
or DVD-R discs using the DV input jack (IEEE 1394-
4pin/4pin). (See page 83)
High quality progressive scan
Progressive scanning provides high resolution and flicker
free video. The 10-bit 54-MHz DAC and 2D Y/C
Separating Circuitry provides the highest image playback
and recording quality. (See pages 44~46)
A variety of functions with an easy-to-use
user interface
The integrated menu system allows you to perform
desired operations both easily and conveniently. With a
HDD, DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc, you can edit recorded
video, create a playlist, edit video in a specific sequence
according to your requirements.
