Step 1: Select the disc type or HDD

Please check available disc type before recording.

DVD-HR753

•

(DVD+RW/DVD+R discs can be played, but cannot be recorded.)

DVD-HR755/DVD-HR756

•

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 ﬁ les directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded ﬁ le.

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 unnecessary.

Using a DVD-RAM

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded images and create a playlist in a speciﬁ c 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 initialize a disc or not. If you select “DVD-VR” or “DVD-V”, initialising will be started. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Format the disc to start recording

English - 11

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 ﬁ nalised.

Using a DVD+RW

Getting Started

For an unused DVD+RW disc, a message that asks

• whether to format a disc or not. If you select “DVD+RW”, formatting will be started.

With DVD+RW discs, there is no difference between

• DVD-Video format (Video mode) and DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode).

Using a DVD+R

This type of disc will be formatted automatically.

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-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.

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 and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classiﬁ ed 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 ﬁ nalise recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in Video mode. The chapter’s length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

Step 6: Finalising & Playing on other DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD components, ﬁ nalising may be necessary. First, ﬁ nish all editing and recording operations, then ﬁ nalise 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 ﬁ nalised ﬁ rst 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 ﬁ nalised. To enable recording on the disc again, the disc must be unﬁ nalised.

When using a DVD±R disc

You should ﬁ nalise 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 ﬁ nalised.

You can ﬁ nalise the disc automatically using



EZ Record function. (See page 31)

HDMI (High Deﬁ nition Multimedia Interface)



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 (not supplied), 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.

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.

Connecting to AV 1 IN, AV 2 IN, DV input jack
