■
When you are recording at EP mode on a
DVD-RW(V mode)/-R disc, it may not
record the full 6 or 8 hours because the
unit uses the VBR(Variable Bit Rate)
ENCODING system. For example, if you
record a program with a lot of action, it
uses a higher bit rate which in turn
consumes more disc memory.
NOTE
■
The timer recording time may differ from the
set time depending on disc status and
overall timer recording status (for example,
recording times overlapping, or when the
previous recording ends within 2 minutes
before the start time of the next recording.)
■
You can make the Timer Recording up to 12
programmes.
