RECORDING MODES
Recording from a video source using Audio/Video (AV) direct Input
In this mode your DVR-390H may be used as a solid-sate (tape less) video recorder - from a video source.
(Think of it as a VCR – without tapes.) Your video recordings will be stored to the internal hard drive, or
memory card, if present. Much like a tradtional VHS recorder your videos can be recorded and played back
at a later time. Unlike a traditional VCR, however, your videos will be stored in full digital format as ASF files
using MPEG4 compression. The video source may be a VCR or DVD player, a traditional camcorder, or a TV
signal passed through a monitor. The video signal will be input to the DVR-390H using the “AV-IN” jack on
the docking cradle.
1. Place the media player in the cradle.
2. Plug one end of the AV cable into the
AV-IN
jack on the cradle.
3. Connect the other end of the AV cable to the audio and video-out
jacks on your video source.
4. Turn on your video source and the DVR-390H.
5. Use the
Up/Down/Left/Right
keys to select
AV-IN REC
mode.Press
the
Ok
key to enter that mode.
6. Press
Ok
to start recording. To stop recording, press
Ok
again.
Note:
The AV cable must be connected to your DVR-390H and video source, otherwise, the AV-IN record function will not
be available to use.
