General Features
The HDD & DVD RECORDER allows you to record and
play high quality digital video on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R or
HDD discs. You can also edit digital images on
DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs or HDD.
HDD Recording
You can record up to 127 hours of video (in EP mode) on
the internal 80GB (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 different
recording quality from the original. For example, you might
want to copy a 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 DVDs and the built-in
hard disk drive (HDD) are completely independent. For
example you can record a broadcast programme 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 images with a 4.7
GB DVD-RAM/-RW/-R disc, depending on the recording
mode.
Selectable Recording Mode
You can set your 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.
Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording
If FR mode is selected, the video quality is adjusted
automatically so that all video for the scheduled time can
be recorded onto the free disc space.

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 41~43)
A variety of functions with an easy-to-use
user interface
The integrated menu system and the messaging
function allow you to perform desired operations both
easily and conveniently. With a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW
disc, you can edit recorded video, create a playlist, edit
video in a specific sequence according to your
requirements.
