General Features

The HDD(Hard Disk Drive) & DVD RECORDER allows you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD­RAM/-RW/-R discs or on the HDD. You can also edit digital images on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs or HDD.
Getting Started
HDD Recording
• DVD-HR710
You can record up to 127 hours of video (in EP mode) on the internal 80GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD).
• DVD-HR721
You can record up to 272 hours of video (in EP mode) on the internal 160GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD).
With both recordable DVD and a high-capacity HDD in the same recorder, you have the flexibility to keep recordings on the HDD for quick access anytime, or record to DVD for archiving or playing on other DVD players.
Copy between HDD and DVD
You can copy recordings from the HDD to recordable DVD, or from DVD to the HDD. Usually you can use the high speed copy feature. You can also choose to copy material at a different recording quality from the original. For example, you might want to copy at XP mode (highest quality) recording on the HDD to SP (standard play) quality on a DVD so that you can fit other recordings on the same disc.
Simultaneous Recording and Playback
Playback and recording for both the DVD and the built-in hard disk drive (HDD) are completely independent. For example you can record a broadcast programme to either a recordable DVD or the HDD, while watching another recording you already made on the same DVD or on the HDD.
recording time, LP & SP modes provide less recording time with higher quality recording, XP mode gives you the highest quality recording.
Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording
If FR mode is selected, the video quality is adjusted automatically so that all video for the scheduled time can be recorded onto the free disc space. (See page 88)
Creating a DVD video title using DVD-RW/-R disc
With the HDD & DVD RECORDER, you can create your own DVD Video titles on 4.7 GB DVD-RW/-R discs.
Copying data from a digital camcorder using a DV input jack
Record DV Device video onto HDD and DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs using the DV input jack (IEEE 1394-4pin/4pin). (See page 82)
High quality progressive scan
Progressive scanning provides high resolution and flicker free video. The 10-bit 54-MHz DAC and 2D Y/C Separating Circuitry provides the highest image playback and recording quality. (See pages 42~43)
A variety of functions with an easy-to-use user interface
The integrated menu system allows you to perform desired operations both easily and conveniently. With a HDD,
DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc, you can edit recorded video, create a playlist, edit video in a specific sequence according to your requirements.
MPEG4 playback

How to use the HDD & DVD RECORDER

Step 1
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 a recording without any changes, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R. You can record files directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded file.
Step 2
Unlike a VCR, the HDD & DVD RECORDER automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
Using the HDD
Formatting unneccessory.
Using a DVD-RAM
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded video and create a playlist and edit video in a specific sequence according to your requirements.
Using a DVD-RW
This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (V mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.
Using a DVD-R
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD Video format. After formatting is complete, you can record on the disc. You can play these type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.

You can change the DVD-RW to format to another format by reinitializing. It should be noted that the disc's data will be lost when changing formats.

Step 3
There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified as follows:
Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP (extended mode) according to the recording mode. When recording is set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining time on the disc.
Recording
Step 5
Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The HDD & DVD RECORDER supports many different edit functions, possible only with DVDs and HDD.
With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.
Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode, HDD)
With this HDD & DVD RECORDER, you can create a new playlist on a disc and edit it without the original, pre-existing recording.
Step 6
Editing a recorded disc
Finalising & Playing on other DVD components
Step 4
You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu and then immediately start playback.
A DVD consists of sections, called titles, and sub­sections, called chapters.
During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be created automatically when you finalise recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in Video mode. The chapter’s length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.
Playing
To play your DVD on other DVD components, finalising may be necessary. First, finish all editing and recording operations, then finalise the disc.
When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode
DVD discs recorded in VR mode can only be played back in DVD recorders, not players.
When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on anything other than this HDD & DVD RECORDER. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised. To enable recording on the disc again, the disc must be unfinalised.
When using a DVD-R disc
You should finalise the disc to play it on a component other than this HDD & DVD RECORDER. You cannot edit or record on the disc once it has been finalised.

Case 3 : Component Video output jacks
S-Video, Component video and Progressive Output Modes
S-Video and Component video output are available only if your TV supports S-Video input or Component video input, respectively. If S-Video or Component video output does not work, check the TV connections and the TV input selection settings.
Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan doubles the amount of video lines fed to your TV, resulting in a more stable, flicker­free, clear image than interlaced video. This is only available with TVs that support progressive scan.
Progressive Scan Output (576p) Consumers should note that not all high definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture, in case of 576 progressive scan picture problems, It is recommended that the user switch the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output. If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this model 576p HDD & DVD RECORDER, please contact our customer service centre.
