Special features of your HDD DVD recorder
Your HDD DVD recorder provides you with perfect digital video recording and playback in studio quality.
You can record television programmes on the built-in hard disc of the
HDD DVD recorder, a DVD+RW/-RW or DVD+R/-R.
With the time shift function you can watch television programmes with a
time shift which are stored in the time shift memory. You can stop these
programmes and continue playback at the same point.
It also provides superb cinema-quality audio playback – in stereo or
with digital multi-channel sound – depending on the type of disc and
audio system or stereo television.
Other features of DVD video include the choice of audio channel and language, choice of subtitle language, and various camera recording angles.
Your HDD DVD recorder is suitable for DVDs with regional code 2.
In addition to DVDs the device can also play back DivX
, MP3, WMA and JPEG data can be played back from both
CD-ROM and DVD-ROM.
Disc formats
DVD+RW/-RWs and DVD+R/-Rs are suitable for recording and playback.
DVD video, DVD+RW/-RW, DVD+R/-R, audio CD, video CD, Super
Video CD, CD-R and CD-RW are all suitable playback formats.
Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of
the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that some recorded
DVDs or CDs cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction on
the part of the HDD DVD recorder.
You must finalise your own recordings on DVD+R/-R so that they can be
played on a DVD player.
When MP3 CDs are played back, individual tracks or pictures may be
skipped or incorrectly played back. This can be due to the disc configuration, the encoder software or the hardware used for the recording.
Audio CDs (CD-DA) meet the specification and bear the corresponding
logo. Copy-protected CDs do not meet this specification and do not
bear the logo. These CDs can cause playback errors.

SET-UP AND SAFETY
________________________________
This HDD DVD recorder is designed to record and play back video and
audio signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If the HDD DVD recorder is subjected to a sudden change in temperature,
for example if it is brought in from the cold to a warm room, connect it to the
mains supply and let it stand for at least two hours before you use it.
The HDD DVD recorder is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in
the open, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or
water splashes.
Place the HDD DVD recorder on a hard, level surface. Do not place any
objects such as newspapers on the HDD DVD recorder, or any cloth or similar items underneath it.
Do not place the HDD DVD recorder directly on top of an AV receiver or
a subwoofer. Do not put any other appliances on top of the HDD DVD
recorder. The laser optics are sensitive to temperature and shocks.
Do not place the HDD DVD recorder close to heating units or in direct sunlight,
as this will impair cooling.
Do not insert objects in the disc compartment of the HDD DVD recorder.
Never open the HDD DVD recorder casing under any circumstances. No
warranty claims are accepted for damage caused by incorrect handling.
Do not place any vessels filled with liquid, such as vases, on the HDD DVD
recorder, as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the HDD DVD
recorder is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the
mains. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
If the HDD DVD recorder fails to read a DVD or CD properly, clean the disc
with a soft cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre outwards. Do not use cleaning CDs to clean the laser optics. This can damage the optics.
Always keep the disc compartment of the HDD DVD video recorder closed to
prevent dust from collecting on the laser optics.
Please note when deciding where to put the device that furniture surfaces are
covered by various types of lacquer and plastic, most of which contain
chemical additives. These may cause corrosion to the feet of the device, thus
resulting in stains on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or
impossible to remove.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch
off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the
external devices and the antenna.

Time shift – watching a current television
programme with a delay
(from page 30)
When you switch on the HDD DVD recorder, the programme you
are currently watching is recorded in the time shift memory. You can
choose whether the time shift memory has space for approx. one
hour, three hours or six hours of recording. The default setting is six
hours. After this time the oldest recording is deleted and the new
scenes are recorded.
Manually started recordings or timer recordings which are stored
on the hard disc can be played back.
We recommend making a back-up copy of programmes that you
wish to keep permanently on DVD+RW/-RW or DVD+R/-R.
Recording on discs (from page 58)
DVD+RW/-RWs and DVD+R/-Rs are suitable for recording.
Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the
quality of the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that a
recorded DVD cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction
on the part of the HDD DVD recorder.
You must finalise your own recordings on DVD+R/-R so that they
can be played on a DVD player.
Recording on the HDD archive (from page 62)
Select the television channel or an external input source and start
recording. The television programme is stored in the HDD archive.
The file browser (from page 82)
The file browser shows you the different types of data (JPEG, MP3,
WMA, DivX
The main functions of the file browser are:
– Playing back files
– Copying files from USB to the HDD folder on the HDD DVD
recorder
– Copying files from a disc to the HDD folder on the HDD DVD
recorder

You have four options, depending on the sockets you have on your
television or flat screen:
– For the best picture quality, make the connection at the EURO-AV
socket using a fully assigned EURO-AV (SCART) cable.
– The simplest option which still offers sufficient quality is to connect
the VIDEO OUT socket and AUDIO OUT sockets using cinch cables.
– The standard connection for many devices, and one which pro-
vides good quality, is via the S-VIDEO OUT socket and the
AUDIO OUT cinch sockets.
– Connection via the cinch sockets Y, Pb/Cb and Pr/Cr (video sig-
nals) and the AUDIO OUT cinch sockets (audio signals).
This connection (progressive scan) can also be used for projectors.
Connect the HDD DVD recorder directly to the television. If you connect a video recorder in between, the HDD DVD recorder’s copy
protection may impair the picture quality.
Connecting a television using a EURO-AV
(SCART) cable
1 Plug the EURO-AV cable supplied into the »EURO AV1
➞
TV« socket on the HDD DVD recorder and into the correspond-
ing socket on the television.

compressing film data.
The MP3 format enables audio files to be saved on a computer with
a sound quality similar to that of a CD. This only requires about
10 % of the original data quantity. The standard encoding bit rate
for MP3 files is 128 kbps. Generally, the higher the bit rate of an
MP3 file, the better the sound quality.
Most MP3 files on the Internet are encoded at 128 or 160 kbps.
160 kbps is considered CD quality.
MP3 files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned
onto a CD-ROM. Your HDD DVD recorder can read the ID3 tag
from the file header, which contains information on the song and
the artist, and displays this in the info menu/status display.
MP3 CDs contain sound recordings. They can be played in the
normal manner on an audio system. The digital signals transmitted
during MP3 playback are PCM encoded, regardless of the audio
output setting. The signals are output with the same data rate as the
music source (possibilities are: 32 kbps – 320 kbps, usually:
128 kbps).
MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders similar to
files on a computer.
Information about the MP3 title you have selected can be viewed
by pressing »DISPL«.
You can view the contents of the MP3 CD (file browser) by
pressing »DISPL«.

JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This process was
designed to compress picture files.
JPEG files can be burned onto a CD along with other file types.
These CDs are known as file CDs or mixed-mode CDs. For example,
the CD could contain MP3 files (audio) and JPEG files (for example
to display album covers).
The files on a JPEG CD can be organised in directories. This structure is similar to that of an MP3 CD.
JPEG CDs only contain data in the compressed JPEG format. This is
mostly data from digital cameras or from imaging programs.

Recording options
You can record television programmes on the HDD archive of the
HDD DVD recorder or on a DVD+RW/-RW and DVD+R/-R.
– Immediately, with one touch recording – which means you select
the channel on the HDD DVD recorder and start recording straight
away.
– At a later stage – by entering data for the TV channel.
– With option 2 you can program up to eight programmes up to a
year in advance, or record programmes at the same time every
day or week.
– You can also record films from external devices such as cam-
corders connected to the »DV IN« or »VIDEO IN« and
»L AUDIO IN R« sockets on the HDD DVD recorder.
Suitable discs for recording
You can use DVD+R/-R and DVD+RW/-RW discs for recording.
DVD+R/-Rs can only be recorded on once. If you want to play these
discs on a DVD player, you first have to finalise them. Once they
have been finalised, they can no longer be recorded on.
If you only want to play them on your HDD DVD recorder, you do
not have to finalise them.
You can add more recordings and delete them as necessary.
Note that any playing time you delete is no longer available
for recording.
DVD+RW/-RWs (rewritable) can be recorded on very often (up to a
thousand times) and deleted.
You may have to delete recordings made by other devices on
DVD+RW/-RWs before you can record on them.
Unsuitable discs
– Damaged discs cannot be recorded on.
– Finalised discs cannot be recorded on. This can only be done with
unfinalised discs.
– Full discs cannot be recorded on.
– Very rarely, discs are defective and therefore cannot be recorded
on. Try recording on another disc.
Initialising discs
The DVD+R/+RW or DVD-R/-RW is automatically initialised before
recording, this can take a few minutes.
Only then is recording possible.

EP – better than VHS picture quality193 hours
SLP – VHS picture quality294Stunden
SEP – longest recording time375 hours
Notes:
The quality and recording time are interdependent. The better
the quality, the more memory the recording requires. This
means that the recording time is shorter in high quality mode
than in standard quality mode.
The recording quality (HQ, SP, SP+, LP, EP, SLP or SEP) is selected
automatically during playback.
