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.

Restrictions on 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 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 DVD recorder 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.
