VPS (Video Programme System) /
PDC (Programme Delivery Control)
The Video Programme System (VPS) or the Programme Delivery
Control (PDC) is a very convenient system which assures that the
TV programmes you have programmed for timer recording, will be
recorded exactly from beginning to end, even if the actual broad-
casting time differs from the scheduled time due to delayed start or
extension of the programme duration. Also, if a programme is inter-
rupted and, for example, some special news is broadcast, the record-
ing will also be interrupted automatically and resumed when the pro-
gramme continues.
When the VPS/PDC signal drop out because the broadcast signal is
weak, or when a broadcasting station does not transmit a regular VPS/
PDC signal, the timer recording will be performed in the normal mode
(without VPS/PDC) even if it was programmed for VPS/PDC. When the
starting time of the VPS/PDC timer recording is from 0:00 to 3:59 on
a given day, the VPS/PDC function operates from 20:00 on the previ-
ous day to 4:00 on the following day. When the starting time of the
VPS/PDC timer recording is from 4:00 to 23:59 on the given day, the
VPS/PDC function operates from 0:00 on the day to 4:00 on the fol-
lowing day. This means that if the relevant programme is broadcasted
within this period, it will be recorded correctly. If the timer is not pro-
grammed correctly, the incorrect timer setting stays in effect unless
you cancel it. To cancel the incorrect timer setting, refer to “To Check,
Correct, or Cancel a Timer Programme” above.
