The recorder can receive and record stereo/
SAP programs.
Recording stereo programs
If there is noise in the stereo program, set
“Auto Stereo” in the “Audio” setup to “Off”
(page 85). The sound will be recorded in
monaural but with less noise.
SAP (Second Audio Program)
When a SAP (Second Audio Program) is
received, the “SAP” indicator lights up on the
front panel display. To record only SAP
sound, set “Tuner Audio” in the “Audio”
setup to “SAP” (page 85).
Pictures with copy protection cannot be
recorded on this recorder.
When the recorder receives a copy guard
signal, the recorder continues to record but
only a blank, grey colored screen will be
recorded.
* The recorded disc can be played only on CPRM
compatible equipment (page 8).
