Recording Mode
MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture quality, the AbpsB unit is used to represent how much data can be recorded per second. The larger this value is, the better the picture quality becomes but more capacity is required for the recording.
Select XP or SP for programmes where quick movement occurs, such as sports programmes, and LP or EP for talk shows, etc. with relatively less movement.

●In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature may leave a slight
