The HDMI mode that is not supported by display device will be skipped.
Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the
display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content
protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the
connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV
amplifier) for more information.
Note for HDMI Connection
•
Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly
with this unit.
•
When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.
•
Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this
unit cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
•
When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI
converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.
•
When the power failure occurs or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur. Please
check and set the HDMI setting again.

Restrictions on Recording
You cannot record copy-protected program using this unit.
Copy-protected video signal is included in DVD-videos,
some satellite broadcasts, some pay-per-view stations and
some “premium” stations.
If copy-protected material is detected, recording will pause
or stop automatically and an error message appears on
the screen.
“Copy-once only” video can only be recorded to CPRM
compatible DVD-RW formatted in VR mode.
What is “CPRM”?
CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system
regarding the recording of “copy-once” broadcast
programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for
Recordable Media.
This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can
record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot
make another copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings
can only be made on CPRM compatible DVD-RW
formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be
played back on DVD players that are specifically
compatible with CPRM.
Making discs playable in other DVD players (Finalize)
For DVD-RW/-R, it is necessary to finalize the disc after
recording, in order to play back the disc on other DVD
players. (Refer to pages 42 - 43.)
When video mode discs are finalized, a title menu is
created.
You cannot finalize discs in other DVD recorders.
