• 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

remote control is working.

• With a digital camera (including built-in camera of

cellular phone):

Direct a digital camera to remote control,

press and hold a button on remote control. If

infrared light appears through digital camera,

the remote control is working.

Finalizing a Disc

MDVDi^DVD

You will need to finalize discs to play back on other DVD players. Finalizing may take several minutes up to an hour.

Since the process of the finalization fills empty space of the disc, a shorter recording period on the disc will require a longer time period for finalization. Do not unplug the power cord during finalization.

Press [SETUP].

Use [a / T] to select "DVD Menu",

then press [ENTER].

"DVD Menu" menu will appear.

Use [a / T] to select "Finalize", then press [ENTER].

• Finalizing a disc in video mode and +VR mode

automatically creates a title menu.

• After you finalize the DVD+RW, you can call up the title list by pressing [TOP MENU], or you can call up the title menu by pressing [DISC MENU].

• Even after DVD+RW is finalized, you can still record or edit. After you finalize DVD-RW/-R or DVD+R, you cannot edit or record anything else on that disc.

• If you insert a DVD-RW finalized with this unit, "Undo Finalization" will appear instead of "Finalize" at step 3.

• To release the finalization of the DVD-RW disc, select

"Undo Finalization" at step 3.

Undo Finalization

» To undo the finalization of the DVD+RW, make an

additional recording onto the disc.

‘ DO NOT power off during finalizing. This may result

in a malfunction.

' For DVD+RW, if you have added or deleted chapters,

or made chapters hidden, you must finalize the disc

before being able to see those effects on other units.

To play back discs other than DVD+RW on other DVD

players, you will need to finalize.

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.

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 30-32.) For DVD-hRW/+R, it is

recommended to finalize the disc in order to make the disc more compatible to other DVD player. When video and -i-VR mode disc are finalized, a title menu is created. You cannot finalize discs in other DVD recorders.

It is not possible to use a DVD-RW/DVD+RW | formatted with this unit on other DVD recorder | unless the content of the disc was also recorded with | this unit. I

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. |

• If a disc is not inserted or if a inserted disc is not recordable (finalized DVD-RW/-R, finalized DVD+RW, a fully recorded disc, etc.), "DVD" on the front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. In some cases, 0 will appear momentarily around the start point as the unit attempts to record.

Please insert a recordable disc.

• If a cassette tape with an erase-protection tab is not in the cassette compartment or there is no cassette tape in the cassette compartment, "VCR" on the front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be

performed. Please insert a recordable cassette tape.

• If you press [TIMER SET] and turn on the unit while either DVD or VCR is in timer standby mode, @ disappears. In this case, you cannot change the mode
