malfunction.
• With an AM radio:
Tune an AM radio to a station with no
broadcasting. Press a button on remote
control toward the radio. Sound will be
fluttering when you press any key and the
radio receives the signal. This means the

Note
• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.
• All high definition pictures will be down converted to
the standard definition pictures when they are
recorded on this unit.
• DVD-RW/-R and CD-RW/-R recorded on a personal
computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not be
played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there
is condensation on the player’s lens.
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even
if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be
played back because of the settings of the
application software used to create the disc. (Check
with the software publisher for more detailed
information.)
• Discs recorded in video mode on this unit cannot
record additional information using other DVD
recorders.
• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit
rate) method, depending on the picture you are
recording, the actual remaining time for recording
may be a little shorter than the remaining time
displayed on the TV screen.

Restrictions on Recording
You cannot record copy-protected program using this
unit. Copy-protected video signal is included in DVDvideos, 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 or internal
HDD.
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 DVDRW/-R are finalized, a title menu is created. You cannot
finalize discs in other DVD recorders.
About HDD
HDD is a special device which has high recording density
and is suited for long-time recording or high-speed
cueing but by contrast, has many factors which can cause
breakage. Use HDD on the premise that you should dub
the recorded program to a DVD disc to protect your
precious videos.
HDD is a temporary storage location:
HDD is not a permanent storage location of the recorded
contents. Be sure to use it as a temporary storage location
until you watch the program once, edit them, or dub
them to a DVD disc.
Be sure to dub (back up) data promptly if you find
abnormalities in HDD:
If there is mechanical trouble with the HDD, grinding or
other sounds may be heard or blocky noise may appear
on the image. If you continue to use as it is, deterioration
may continue and eventually the HDD may not be used
at all. If you notice these symptoms of a failing HDD,
promptly dub the data to a DVD disc.
When an HDD fails, recovery of recorded content (data)
may be impossible.
About the remaining capacity of HDD recording time:
In recording to HDD, the Remaining Capacity Display
may differ from the actual recordable time as this unit
adopts Variable Bit Rate encoding, which varies the
recording (storage) amount of data in conformity with
the information amount of video. Before recording to
the HDD, ensure there is sufficient space on the HDD
by deleting unnecessary titles in advance. (Remaining
capacity will not increase if you only delete Playlists.)

Recording Mode for Dubbing
“High”
This unit is compatible with the high speed dubbing from
HDD to DVD or from VR mode DVD-RW to HDD.
With the high speed dubbing you can dub a title much
faster than the normal speed dubbing without changing
the quality of the picture and sound. (e.g. If you dub a
title recorded in SLP mode to DVD-R, dubbing speed will
be 32 times faster than the normal dubbing.) To perform
the high speed dubbing, set the recording mode to
“High”.
• Duration of high speed dubbing will vary depending on
the recording mode or the title amount.
• High speed dubbing is not available when;
- recording mode is set to other than “High”.
- dubbing from a video mode DVD-RW/-R to the HDD.
- there is not enough space in the disc or HDD.
• High speed dubbing of an HDD title which has bilingual
audio is only available to VR mode DVD-RW disc.
