DVD Recording
Before Recording
Before you start recording…
• This recorder can record on various discs types.
Select the disc type according to your needs
(page 30).
• Check that the disc has enough available space
for the recording (page 46). For DVD+RWs or
DVD-RWs, you can free up disc space by
erasing titles (page 61).
z Hint
To play a disc recorded with this recorder on other
equipment, finalize the disc (page 93).
Notes
• Timer recordings cannot be made if the recorder is
turned on (page 52). The recorder automatically turns
off after a recording has finished.
• This recorder records at ×1 speed.
• This recorder shares a single tuner for both the DVD
recorder and the VCR. You cannot record different
programmes to a DVD and a VHS tape at the same
time.
Recording mode
Like the SP or LP 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.

programme or video source of low picture quality
– Recording on a disc that has already been edited
– Recording only a still picture or just sound
Recording stereo and bilingual
programmes
The recorder automatically receives and records
stereo and bilingual programmes based on the
NICAM system.
A DVD-RW (VR mode) and DVD-R (VR mode)
can record both main and sub sounds. Press the
(audio) button to switch between main and
sub when playing the disc.
A DVD+RW, DVD-RW (Video mode), DVD+R,
or DVD-R (Video mode) can record only one
sound track (main or sub) at a time. Select the
sound track using the “Setup” display before
recording starts. Set “DVD Bilingual Rec.” to
“Main” (default) or “Sub” in the “Features” setup
(page 108).
I want to record with the
best possible picture
quality, so I’ll select HQ.
