How to use the DVD Recorder

Step 1 : Select the disc type

▌

This unit can record on the following types of discs. If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable DVD-RW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you want to save the recording without making any changes, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.

▌

Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording

The recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of disc recording.

Using a DVD-RAM

This type of disc can be formatted with the DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded video and create a playlist and edit video in a speciﬁ c sequence according to your requirements.

Using a DVD-RW

• When an unused DVD-RW disc is ﬁ rst inserted, the message “Uninitialized Disc. Do you want to initialize this disc?” will be displayed. If you select Yes, initializing will begin. A DVD-RW disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (Video mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode)

Using a DVD-R

When using a DVD-R disc, only V mode recording is possible and no initialization is needed to play it on this recorder. However, ﬁ nalization is necessary to play this disc on other DVD players.

You can only use either the VR or Video mode on

■

a DVD-RW, but not both at the same time.

You can format a DVD-RW to V or VR mode using

■

disc manager. It should be noted that the disc's data will be lost when changing formats.

Step 3 : Recording

▌

There are two different recording methods. Direct Recording (recording a program you are currently watching) and Timer Recording. Timer recording is determined as a Date : MM/DD, MON-FRI, Every SAT, etc.. There are 5 recording modes : XP(high quality mode), SP(standard quality mode), LP(long recording mode), EP(extended mode) and FR mode. When using FR mode to record, the picture quality is determined by the remaining time on the disc.

You can make a Timer Recording by using the

■

EPG (Electronic Program Guide). (See page 43)

English - 9

Page 10

Step 4 : Playing

▌

To start playback select the title you want to play from the Title list. A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub sections called chapters. During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be

Getting Started

created automatically when you ﬁ nalize recording on DVD-R/DVD-RW discs in Video mode.

▌

Step 5 : Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than editing on conventional video tapes. The recorder supports many different edit functions, possible only with DVDs.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.

With this recorder, you can create playlists using a DVDRAM/DVD-RW in VR mode. Once a playlist is created you can create/edit a new playlist on the same disc without changing the original recording.

▌

Step 6

Finalizing & Playing on other

DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD components, ﬁ nalizing may be necessary. First, ﬁ nish all editing and recording operations, then ﬁ nalize the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although ﬁ nalizing is generally unnecessary when playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a ﬁ nalized disc should be used for playback.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

Step 2 : Connecting HDMI/DVI to a TV

If your TV has an HDMI/DVI input, connect the HDMI/DVI cable to the TV. You will enjoy the best quality image and sound.

Connecting to a TV with HDMI Jack

▌

Using an HDMI-HDMI cable, connect the HDMI OUT jack on the rear of the DVD Recorder to the HDMI IN jack of your TV. Turn on your TV, then the DVD Recorder. Press the input selector on your TV remote control until the HDMI signal from the DVD Recorder appears on your TV screen.

Connecting & Setting Up

To watch through the HDMI output, set the digital

■

audio output to PCM. (See page 38)

Depending on the HDMI device(TV/HDMI

■

Receiver) you use, audio may not be supported. If your TV does not support Dolby digital/DTS, Audio output is not available when you set the Digital output to Bitstream or select DTS On in the Audio setup menu. In this case, set the digital audio ouput to PCM or DTS Off.

■

If you use an HDMI cable to connect a Samsung TV to the DVD recorder, you can operate the recorder using the TV remote control. (This is only available with SAMSUNG TVs that support Anynet+(HDMI-CEC).) (See pages 35~36)

English - 18

Please check the logo (If your TV has an

■

logo, then it supports Anynet+ function.)

Page 19

Connecting to a TV with DVI Jack

▌

Using the HDMI-DVI cable (not included), connect the HDMI OUT terminal on the rear of the DVD Recorder to the DVI IN terminal of your TV. An HDMI to DVI connection requires a separate audio connection, using the audio cables, connect the AUDIO (red and white) OUT terminals on the rear of the DVD Recorder to the AUDIO (red and white) IN terminals of your TV. Turn on your TV, then the DVD Recorder. Press the input selector on your TV remote control until the DVI signal from the DVD Recorder appears on your TV screen.

Connecting & Setting Up

To set the HDMI output resolution (480p/720p/

■

1080i), see page 40.

HDMI (High Deﬁ nition Multimedia Interface)

■

HDMI enables you to make a digital video and audio connection with a single cable. Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

HDMI is completely compatible with DVI. The only

■

difference between HDMI and DVI is that HDMI supports multi-channel audio.

HDMI connection description

■

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

- The DVD recorder outputs a pure digital signal to the TV.

- If your TV does not support HDCP (High bandwidth Digital Content Protection), snow noise appears on the screen.

English - 19

Why does Samsung use HDMI?

■

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal.However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Recorder) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the DVD recorder to your TV.

What is the HDCP?

■

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content output via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.

Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan doubles the amount of video lines fed to your TV, resulting in a clearer, more stable, and ﬂ icker free image than interlaced video. The component output jack of the DVD player can be used for progressive output mode, which is only available with TVs that support progressive scan.

Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)

CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on which it is recorded. It is supported by some DVD recorders, but not by many DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media ID etched in the BCA(Burst Cutting Area). When protected content is recorded onto the disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria) cipher derived from the media ID. Disc contents cannot be copied to other media.

Editing

This section introduces basic functions of DVD editing.

• Title List

A title is a section of recorded video and audio. The Title List shows a list to help you select a title. If one title is deleted from the title list, that title cannot be played again.

• Playlist

This refers to a unit of playback, which is made by selecting a desired scene in the entire Title List. When one playlist is played, only the scene selected by the user will play and then stop. Since only the information necessary for playing a desired scene is included in a playlist, even if that playlist is deleted, the original recorded title will not be deleted.

Recording or editing might not be completed if an error such as a sudden power failure occurs.

Please be aware that material that has been damaged cannot be retrieved.
