General Features
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)
The HDD & DVD RECORDER allows you to record and
play high quality digital video on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R or
HDD discs. You can also edit digital images on
DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs or HDD.
Getting Started
HDD Recording
You can record up to 127 hours of video (in EP mode) on
the internal 80GB (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 different
recording quality from the original. For example, you might
want to copy a 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 DVDs 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.
High quality digital audio and video recording
and playback
Record up to 16-hours of video with a double sided 9.4
GB DVD-RAM disc, up to 8-hours of images with a 4.7
GB DVD-RAM/-RW/-R disc, depending on the recording
mode.
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 41~43)
A variety of functions with an easy-to-use
user interface
The integrated menu system and the messaging
function allow 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
This HDD & DVD RECORDER can play MPEG4 formats
within an avi file.
DivX Certification
DivX, DivX Certified, and associated
logos are trademarks of DivXNetworks,
Inc and are used under licence.
Selectable Recording Mode
You can set your recorder to one of four different
recording speeds, each varying in recording quality and
length. EP (6Hr or 8Hr) mode yields the most recording
time, LP & SP modes provide less recording time with
higher quality recording, XP mode gives you the highest
quality recording.

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 recorder automatically starts
formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is
required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
Using a 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 image and create a playlist and edit
images in a specific sequence according to your
requirements.
Using a DVD-RW
This type of disc can be formatted in either DVDVideo 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 this type of discs on
various DVD components only when they have
been finalised.

You can change the DVD-RW format to
another format by reinitializing. It should
be noted that the disc's data will be lost
when changing formats.
Getting Started
Step 3
There are two different recording methods, Direct
Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is
classified.
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 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 recorder, you can create a new playlist on
the same disc and edit it without the change of the
original 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 sub
sections, 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
Although finalising is generally unnecessary when
playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible
component, a finalised disc should be used for
playback on that type of component.
When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalised first to enable playback
on anything other than this recorder. No more editing
or recording can be made on the disc once it has
been finalised.
To enable recording on the disc again, disc should be
unfinalised.
When using a DVD-R disc
You should finalise the disc to play it on a component
other than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on
the disc once it has been finalised.
