Overview

DVD, DVD+R, DVD+RW?

What is a DVD?

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is a storage medium that combines the convenience of the compact disc with the latest digital video technology. DVD video uses modern MPEG2 data compression technology that enables an entire feature film to be stored on a single five inch disc.

How good is the resolution of DVD compared with VHS?

The razor-sharp digital images have more than 500 lines of resolution at 720 pixels per line. This is more than twice as high as VHS and even better than laser disc quality. DVD picture quality is easily comparable to the digital masters produced in recording studios.

What is a DVD+RW?

DVD+ReWritable uses ‘phase change‘ media, the same technology on which rewritable CDs are based. A highperformance laser is used to change the reflective properties of the recording layer; this process can be repeated more than a thousand times.

What is a DVD+R?

Unlike a DVD+RW disc, a DVD+R (write-once DVD) can only be written to once. If it is not finalized after a recording, further recordings can be added to it. Old recordings can be deleted but they can no longer be overwritten. The deleted recordings (titles) are marked 'deleted title'.

Before a DVD+R can be played in a DVD player, it must be finalized in the DVD Recorder+VCR. Once this process is complete, no further recordings can be added.

What can I do with my DVD Recorder+VCR?

Your DVD Recorder+VCR is a machine for recording and playing back digital video discs with ‘two-way‘ compatibility with the universal DVD video standard. This means:

• existing DVD video discs can be played on the recorder.

• recordings made on your DVD Recorder+VCR can be played on other DVD video players and DVD-ROM drives.

Remark :

A DVD Recorder+VCR that supports ‘dual media’ recording allows DVD+RW format recording (+VR) on either DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW media. Any editing feature that is available with the +RW logical format is available on any of the media types. This system allows the flexibility for the consumer to use any of the above media formats for recording in the same system. Since the +VR format is DVD-Video compatible, the consumer can take any disk recorded on this platform and should be capable of playing it back on the majority of DVD players on the market.

Overview

Notes on Recording

• The recording times shown are not exact because the DVD Recorder+VCR uses variable bit-rate video

compression. This means that the exact recording time will depend on the material being recorded.

• When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is poor or the picture contains interference, the recording

times may be shorter.

• Discs recorded at high speeds (equal to or greater than 2X) may not be recognized.

• If you record still pictures or audio only, the recording time may be longer.

• The displayed times for recording and time remaining may not always add up to the exact length of the

disc.

• The available recording time may decrease if you heavily edit a disc.

• When using a DVD+R disc, you can keep recording until the disc is full, or until you finalize the disc. Before

you start a recording session, check the amount of recording time left on the disc.

Recording TV Audio Channels

The DVD Recorder+VCR can record one or two channel audio. For TV broadcasts, this usually means mono or stereo, but some programs are broadcast in bilingual audio channel. You can record either BIL I or BIL II.

Restrictions on Video Recording

• You cannot record copy-protected video using this DVD Recorder+VCR. Copy-protected video includes DVD-

Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message will be displayed on-screen.

• Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be recorded using DVD+RW discs with CPRM.

• Audio and video recordings you make using the DVD Recorder+VCR are for your personal use only. You may

not sell, lend, or rent them to other people.

• This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain

U.S.patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

Handling the Unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.

When setting up the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

INTRODUCTION

Cleaning the Unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinners, as these might damage the surface of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

The DVD Recorder+VCR is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.) For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Remote Control Operation Range

Point the remote control at the remote sensor and press the buttons. Distance: Within 23 ft (7 m) of the remote sensor. Angle: Within 30° in each direction of the remote sensor.

Remote Control Battery Installation

Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control, and insert two AAA batteries. Make sure the polarities (+ and -) are aligned correctly.

AAA

Caution

Do not mix old and new batteries. Never mix different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, etc.).

Handling Discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing Discs

After playing, store the disc in its case. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct

sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.

Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre outward.

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinners, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Digital Multi-Channel Sound?

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this you need a multi-channel audio/video receiver that supports one or more of the audio formats supported by your DVD Recorder+VCR (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital, and DTS). Check the receiver manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.

Connecting an Amplifier/Receiver

• Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio stream is selected.

• If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.

• 5.1 channel digital surround sound via the digital connection can only be obtained if your receiver is equipped with a digital multi-channel decoder.

• To see the audio format of the current DVD on the on-screen display, press [AUDIO].

The DVD Recorder+VCR does not perform internal (2- channel) decoding of DTS sound tracks. To enjoy DTS multichannel surround, you must connect the DVD Recorder+VCR to a DTS compatible receiver via one of the DVD Recorder+VCR’s digital audio outputs.
