Information

This unit can record to DVD-R and DVD-RW discs. When recording, you will need to select a recording format between Video mode and VR mode depending on the disc format.The disc format for DVD-R is always “Video format,” so a recording format will be “Video mode”. On the other hand, when recording to DVD-RW, a recording format will be “Video mode” or “VR mode” because a disc format is available between “Video Recording format” and “Video format” for DVD-RW.

About Video mode and VR (Video Recording) mode

Video mode is the same recording format as DVDVideo discs purchased locally, so that you can play in most DVD players.To play in other DVD players, you will need to finalize (see page 39).

disc as the standard.The recording time are estimates and actual recording time may differ.

* The audio and video quality is getting poorer as

the recording time becomes longer.

Restrictions on recording

You cannot record copy-protected video using this unit. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts.

Video that is “copy-once only” can only be recorded using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with CPRM (see below). When recording a TV broadcast or through an external input, you can display copy control information on screen.

What is “CPRM”?

CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system regarding the recording of “copy once” broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media. This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
