General Features

The HDD(Hard Disk Drive) & DVD RECORDER allows you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD- RW/-R discs or on the HDD.You can also edit digital images on DVD-RW discs or HDD.

HDD Recording

• DVD-HR733

You can record up to 127 hours of video (in EP mode) on the internal 80 GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD).

• DVD-HR738

You can record up to 429 hours of video (in EP mode) on the internal 250 GB (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.

High quality digital audio and video recording and playback

Record up to 8-hours of video with a 4.7 GB DVD-RW/-R disc, depending on the recording mode.

Selectable Recording Mode

You can set your HDD & DVD 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.

Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording

How to use the
HDD & DVD RECORDER
Step 1 Select the disc type or HDD

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 type disc. If you want to save a recording without any changes, choose a nonrewritable DVD-R. You can record files directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded file.

Step 2 Format the disc to start recording

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-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 initialize a disc or not. If you select “Yes”, disc will be formatted in VR mode. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Using a DVD-R

Formatting disc is unnecessary and only V Mode Recording is supported. You can play these type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.

English - 11

■You can only use either the VR or Video mode on a DVD-RW, but not both at the

NOTE

same time.

		■ You can change the DVD-RW to format to
	StartedettingG	another format by reinitializing.
		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 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.

Step 4 Playing

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.

Step 5 Editing a recorded disc

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-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	Finalising & Playing on
	other DVD components

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.

Other type of connecting the Video output cable

There are several ways to output video signal not using scart cables. Select one of the following video connecting that best suits you below.

•Case 1 : Connecting to a Video (Composite) output jack

•Case 2 : Connecting to an S-Video output jack

•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.

■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 HDD & 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 HDD & DVD RECORDER to your TV.

■What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted 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.

Up Setting & onnectingC

HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector. Since HDMI is based on DVI, it is completely compatible with DVI. The only difference between HDMI and DVI is that HDMI supports multi-channel audio.

Using HDMI, the HDD & DVD RECORDER transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

■HDMI connection description

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

-Though the HDD & DVD RECORDER uses a HDMI cable, the HDD & DVD RECORDER outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

-If TV does not support HDCP (High -bandwidth Digital Content

Protection), snow noise appears on the screen.
