Recording

Read this before recording on disc

Types of disc

You can use DVD-RAM, DVD-RW and DVD-R discs to record video.

DVD-RAM/-RW (VR mode)

• This mode involves mutiple editing functions.
• Various editing options using a created Playlist.

DVD-RW (Video mode)/-R

• Simple editing (renaming titles).

For more information on recording format, see “Recording for-

mat” (page 10).

Recording modes

There are 4 modes for recording on disc. Recording time and quality
vary according to mode.

• Recording time above is based on a 4.7GB disc.

Since DVD recording is performed using VBR (Variable Bit Rate), re-
cording time varies according to the recorded content.
To know the correct recording time, stop recording and check the me-
dia information. (See page 35.)

Disc remaining time

VR mode

• Recording is possible as long as there is available space on the

disc. (Finalized discs can be recorded by cancelling the finalization,
see “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)

• Erasing unnecessary title frees up available space on the disc. (Titles

can be erased from finalized discs by first undoing the finalization.
See “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)

Video mode

• Up until the disc is finalized, recording is possible as long as there is

available space on the disc. (Once the disc has been finalized, addi-
tional recording and erasing are not possible.)

• The remaining time cannot be increased, nor can recorded title be

overwritten.

• Titles cannot be erased nor can recorded titles be overwritten.

This section explains things you must
know to record onto a disc. Read it
before attempting to record.

NOTES:

Recording time can change for the
following reasons.
• When image quality is poor as dur-

ing poor TV reception.

• When recording on a disc that has

been edited before.

• When the video is followed with re-

cordings of still images or just au-
dio.

NOTE:

Should a power failure occur or
should the AC cord plug be discon-
nected while recording, editing, ini-
tializing, finalizing or any other func-
tion, the program being recorded will
be lost or the disc may not be play-
able. Manufacturer can not guaran-
tee against loss of program or disc
should this occur. To start recording
again, re-format the disc or use a
new disc and follow the instruction
on recording.

to digital video compression technol-
ogy, scenes with fast motion may
appear as a matrix of larger blocks.

Images that cannot be recorded

Some DVD-Video and broadcasts contain copy-restriction signals to
protect copyrights. There are 3 types of copy-restriction signals: “Copy
Free”, “Copy Never” and “Copy Once”.

“Copy Free” (unrestricted recording)

Land-based TV broadcasts and images you record yourself with a video
camera allow unrestricted recording. There are no restrictions on re-
cording.

“Copy Never” (recording prohibited)

• Images that contain the recording prohibited signal cannot be re-

corded.

• If the recording prohibited signal appears halfway through an image

you are recording, recording is paused at that instant. When the re-
cording prohibited signal ends, recording resumes.

• This unit incorporates a built-in copy guard. It cannot record soft-

ware or broadcasted programs that contain copy restriction signals
designed to protect copyright, etc.

“Copy Once” (one-time recordable)

Programs (images) that contain the one-time recordable signal can be
recorded only in the VR mode using a DVD-RW disc that supports
CPRM Ver. 1.1 and Ver 1.2.
