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.
The unauthorized recording, use,
distribution, or revision of television
programs, videotapes, DVDs and
other materials, is prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United
States and other countries, and
may subject you to civil and/or
criminal liability.
