Overview
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. Once this process is
complete, no further recordings can be added.
What can I do with my DVD Recorder?
Your DVD Recorder 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 can be played on other DVD video players and DVD-ROM drives.

Remark :
A DVD Recorder 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.

About DVD Recording
Notes on Recording
• The recording times shown are not exact because the DVD Recorder 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 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, BIL II or both.
Restrictions on Video Recording
• You cannot record copy-protected video using this DVD Recorder. 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.
Copyright Notice
• Audio and video recordings you make using the DVD Recorder 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.

Auto Clock Set
Auto Clock enables the DVD Recorder to set the clock automatically
whenever it is in Standby mode (plugged in but powered off).
Auto Clock is only available for models with the VPS/PDC function.
Some broadcasting stations may send the time and date along with the VPS/PDC
data. The video will automatically use this time and date during the initial setting up
procedure during normal use, and every time you switch the video off at the mains.
If you find that this time and date is incorrect you can remove this feature by
following the steps below changing it to the OFF mode, you will then have to
manually set the time and date, see above.
1
Use […†] to select 'Auto Clock Set' and press [√].
2
Use […†] to change the 'Auto Clock Set' status, and press [ENTER] to confirm.
VPS/PDC
VPS/PDC is a service provided by some stations to enable you to perform
timer recordings precisely even if the broadcaster delays the start time of
the programme slightly. The time you enter is the VPS/PDC time so this
must be correct. Not all stations offer VPS/PDC, in which case the player
will start at the time you enter and not the actual start time of the
programme.
If you wish to start recording at a specific time without it being adjusted by
the VPS/PDC system in the event of a delay, switch VPS/PDC off otherwise
the player will not record.
Follow the same procedure as ‘Auto Clock Set’ to set the ‘VPS/PDC’ status.
• "VPS/PDC" and "Auto Clock Set" are not provided for some countries.
