Timer Recording
Before Recording
Before you start recording…
• Check that the disc has enough available
space for the recording (page 33). For the
HDD, DVD+RWs, and DVD-RWs, you
can free up disc space by erasing titles
(page 63).
• Adjust the recording picture quality and
picture size if necessary (page 46).
z
Hint
Timer recordings will be made regardless whether
or not the recorder is turned on. You can turn off the
recorder without affecting the recording even after
recording starts.
b
Note
To play a recorded disc on other DVD equipment,
finalise the disc (page 36).
Like the standard ×3 recording modes of
video tapes, you can select the desired
recording mode using the REC MODE
button.
Recording modes with higher quality provide
a more beautiful recording, but the large data
volume also results in a shorter recording
time.
Conversely, a longer duration provides a
longer recording time, but the lower data
volume results in a coarser picture quality.
Press REC MODE repeatedly to switch the
recording modes.
To select the HQ+ mode, set “HQ Setting” of
the “HDD Rec. Settings” to “HQ+” in the
“Recording” setup (page 92). “HQ+” records
pictures in higher quality than HQ on the
HDD. Note that HQ+ plus appears as HQ in
the front panel display and the on-screen
displays.
* The 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
