• Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate
properly with this unit.
• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however,
this unit cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit
length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In
connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.
• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMIDVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.
• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur.
Please check and set the HDMI setting again.

About digital TV broadcasting:
With its high definition broadcast, digital broadcasting far
surpasses analog broadcasting in both its picture and
sound quality.
What is the minor channel?
By using high compression technology, digital
broadcasting offers a service that enables multiple signals
to send simultaneously.
Therefore, you can select more than one program per
major channel since digital broadcasting technology
distinguishes between multiple channels broadcast by a
single network.

However, depending on the media condition the unit
may not read the disc properly.
Performance of any other discs are not guaranteed.
• You can play back DVD+RW on most DVD players
without finalizing. However, if you have added or
deleted chapters, or made chapters hidden, you
must perform “Make Edits Compatible” before being
able to see those effects on other units. (Refer to
page 96 for more details.) To play back discs other
than DVD+RW on other DVD players, you will need
to finalize.
You can select a recording mode among 6 options, and

About HDD
HDD is a special device which has high recording density
and is suited for long-time recording or high-speed
cueing but by contrast, has many factors which can cause
breakage. Use HDD on the premise that you should dub
the recorded programs to a DVD to protect your precious
videos.
HDD is a temporary storage location:
HDD is not a permanent storage location of the recorded
contents. Be sure to use it as a temporary storage location
until you watch the programs once, edit them, or dub
them to a DVD.
Be sure to dub (back up) data promptly if you find
abnormalities in HDD:
If there is mechanical trouble with the HDD, grinding or
other sounds may be heard or blocky noise may appear
on the image. If you continue to use as it is, deterioration
may continue and eventually the HDD may not be used
at all. If you notice these symptoms of a failing HDD,
promptly dub the data to a DVD. When an HDD fails,
recovery of recorded content (data) may be impossible.
About the remaining capacity of HDD recording time:
The on-screen indication of the possible recording time
left on HDD / DVD may differ from the actual recordable
time as this unit employs the variable bit rate encoding
system which varies the recording (storage) amount of
data in conformity with the amount of information on the
video.
Before recording to the HDD, ensure there is sufficient
space on the HDD by deleting unnecessary titles in
advance.
Note
• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.
• All high definition pictures will be down converted to
the standard definition pictures when they are
recorded on this unit.
• DVD+RW/+R, DVD-RW/-R and CD-RW/-R recorded on
a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may
not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or
if there is condensation on the player’s lens.
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even
if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be
played back because of the settings of the
application software used to create the disc. (Check
with the software publisher for more detailed
information.)
• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit
rate) method, depending on the picture you are
recording, the actual remaining time for recording
may be a little shorter than the remaining time
displayed on the TV screen.
• You cannot record copy-protected program using
this unit. (Copy-protected signal is included in DVDvideo or some satellite broadcasts.)
• You cannot record “copy-once only” program on
DVD.

This unit is compatible with the high speed dubbing from
HDD to DVD.
If you dub a title recorded in SLP mode to DVD+R/-R,
dubbing speed will be 24 times at the maximum. To
perform the high speed dubbing, set the recording mode
to “High”.
• Duration of high speed dubbing will vary depending on
the recording mode or the title amount.
• High speed dubbing is not available when;
- recording mode is set to other than “High”.
- dubbing from a DVD to the HDD.
- there is not enough space in the HDD.
- duration of the title is more than 5 hours.
• During dubbing (except for high speed dubbing), you can
use [STOP C] on the front panel or press [STOP C] for 2
seconds on the remote control, and any other buttons will
be invalid.
“Auto”
When “Auto” is selected as a recording mode, the unit
calculates how much time is available on the disc and
selects the best recording mode available automatically.
• The recording may be cut short when the available
recording space of the disc is too limited.
• During normal dubbing, you can watch the playback
picture of the title being dubbed (the audio cannot
be changed). During high speed dubbing, however,
the playback picture will not appear.
• Dubbing of a “copy-once only” program is not
possible with this unit.
• If you stop the dubbing halfway, the contents will be
dubbed up to the point where you stop the dubbing
(except for the high speed dubbing). With high
speed dubbing, nothing will be dubbed if you stop it
halfway.
• To stop the dubbing in progress, press [STOP C] on
the front panel or press [STOP C] for 2 seconds on
the remote control.
