Note
• If you have not set the clock, the clock setting window will
appear instead of the Timer Programming list. Continue
from “
A
Clock Setting” on page 71 before programming the
timer.

to move the cursor in “Timer Programming”
list.
• If you have a timer programme with VPS/PDC function, and
if you are watching different channel from the timer
programme, confirmation message to change the channel
will appear 15 minutes before the programme starts (the
message will also re-appear 30 seconds before the
programme starts). The channel will automatically be
changed to the programmed channel 15 seconds before the
programme starts.
Alternate recording (DVD only)...
If there is no recordable disc in the unit, if the disc does not
have enough space to complete the recording, or if the
material is “copy-once” programme and prohibited to be
recorded on a DVD in the unit, the unit will detect it and
automatically record to the HDD even when DVD is selected
as the recording media. If the available space on the HDD is
less than that of DVD, the unit will not perform the alternate
recording. This feature is available only for timer recording.
Not available for one-touch timer recording.
The Video Programme System (VPS) or Programme Delivery
Control (PDC) assures that the TV programmes you have
programmed for timer recording are recorded exactly from
beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time differs
from the scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of
the programme duration. Furthermore, if a programme is
interrupted, the recording will also be interrupted
automatically and resumed when the programme starts again.
If the VPS/PDC signal drops out because the broadcast signal
is weak, or if a broadcasting station does not transmit a
regular VPS/PDC signal, the timer recording is performed in
normal mode (without VPS/PDC) even if it was programmed
for VPS/PDC. If the starting time of the VPS/PDC timer
recording is between 0:00 and 3:59 on a given day, the VPS/
PDC function will operate from 20:00 on the previous day to
4:00 on the next day. If the starting time of the VPS/PDC timer
recording is between 4:00 and 23:59 on a given day, the VPS/
PDC function will operate from 0:00 on the given day to 4:00
on the next day. This means that if the relevant programme is
broadcasted within this period, it is recorded correctly. If the
timer is not programmed correctly, the incorrect timer setting
stays in effect unless you cancel it. To cancel an incorrect
timer setting, refer to “Checking, Cancelling or Correcting the
Timer Programming Information” on page 34.
Note
• This feature is only available for analogue channels.
