PDC
“PDC” (program delivery control) are used to control
the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV
program starts earlier or ends later than was
scheduled, the DVD recorder will then turn on and off
at the correct time. Refer to “Timer Record using the
VIDEO Plus+ system” section for details about setting.
Notes:
1. You must enter the start time exactly to the minute. If you
want to program a time that is different from the PDC time,
you must switch off PDC.
2. Only on TV program of a TV channel can be controlled
using “PDC” at a time. If you want to record two or more
TV programs on a TV channel using “PDC,” you need to
program these as two separate recordings.
3. Since the DVD recorder requires a certain lead time for
getting the disc up to speed and positioning the laser before
recording can start, it is possible that the recorder will miss
the first few seconds of a TV show recorded with PDC. In
this case, disable PDC and enter a start time one minute
earlier.
