Before Recording
Before you start recording…
• This recorder can record on various disc types.
Select the disc type according to your needs
(page 30).
• Check that the disc has enough available space
for the recording (page 40). For DVD+RWs or
DVD-RWs, you can free up disc space by
erasing titles (page 58).
• Check that the recorder is connected to a tuner
such as a cable box or satellite receiver
(page 12). See also the tuner’s instruction
manual.

Hints
• To play a disc recorded with this recorder on other
equipment, finalize the disc (page 66). Note that you
cannot further record or edit on a finalized disc.
• If you set “Auto Finalize” to “On” in the “Features”
setup (page 85), the Auto Finalize function works for
DVD-RWs (Video mode), DVD-Rs (Video mode) and
DVD+Rs after recording. For details, see page 67.
Notes
• Timer recordings will start with or without the recorder
turned on. The recorder automatically turns off after a
recording has finished.
• This recorder records at ×1 speed.
Maximum recordable number of titles
Recording mode
Like the SP or EP recording mode of VCRs, this
recorder has eight different recording modes.
Select a recording mode according to the time and
picture quality you need. For example, if picture
quality is your top priority, select “HQ” (high
quality). If recording time is your priority, “SLP”
can be a possible choice.
Press REC MODE repeatedly to switch the
recording modes.
Recording mode and recording time
The following table is an approximate guide for
the recording time on a single DVD (4.7 GB).
z
Hint
The approximate recording time for DVD+R DL
(Double Layer) discs is as follows:
HQ: 1 hour 48 minutes
HSP: 2 hours 42 minutes
SP: 3 hours 37 minutes
LSP: 4 hours 31 minutes
ESP: 5 hours 25 minutes
LP: 7 hours 14 minutes
EP: 10 hours 51 minutes
SLP: 14 hours 28 minutes
Notes
• When in a recording mode other than HQ, the recorder
compresses the audio/video data before recording.
Since the compression rate needs to decrease for fast-
moving images or if picture noise is present, recorded
data size increases, and available recording time
becomes shorter. When recording such pictures, a
recording mode offering longer recording time is
recommended.
• Situations below may cause inaccuracies with the
recording time.
– Recording fast-moving or images containing picture
noise.
– Recording a program with poor reception, or a
program or video source of low picture quality

I want to record with the
best possible picture
quality, so I’ll select HQ.
