Basic recording from the TV
Follow the instructions below to record a TV program.
Recording starts immediately and continues until the
disc is full or you stop the recording.
1
Load a recordable disc.
• If you load a new blank DVD-RW disc, the recorder
takes a short while to initialize the disc.
2
Use the C/– buttons to select the TV
channel to record.
The front panel display shows the channel number:
• While the recorder is stopped, you can also use the
number buttons on the remote to select the channel.
(For channel 6, press
6
then
ENTER
; for channel 24,
press
2, 4
then
ENTER
)
• If the recorder is stopped, you can also use the
+/–
buttons on the front panel to select the channel
number.
3
Use the REC MODE button to set the picture
quality/recording time.
• See
Setting the picture quality/recording time
above
for detailed instructions.
4
Use the AUDIO button to select the audio
channel to record.

on page 27 for more on
this.
• When recording in VR mode, both mono and SAP
audio channels are recorded, allowing you to switch
the audio channel on playback. The only exception to
this is when the picture quality is set to

in which case you do need to select the audio
channel before recording.

button repeatedly. The recording time increases in 30
minute increments, up to a maximum of six hours. The

recorder automatically switches into standby if no other
operation is being performed.

can still stop the recording anytime by pressing
STOP REC
.

more space on the DVD.
Setting a timer recording
Using the timer recording features you can program up
to 32 timer recordings up to a month in advance. Timer
recording programs can be set to record just once, every
day, or every week.
You can set the recording quality for your timer recording
in the same way as for a regular recording, but with the
added option of an
AUTO
mode, which maximizes the
recording quality for the space available on the disc.
You can also set the recorder so that it will adjust the
recording quality to try and fit the recording on to the disc
if it would not otherwise fit at the recording quality you set
(see
Optimized Rec
on page 83 for more on this).
