Restrictions on video recording

•You cannot record copy-protected video using this recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy- protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause automatically and an error message will be displayed on-screen.

•Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be recorded on a DVD-RW disc in VR mode (see below).

•When recording a TV broadcast or through an external input, you can display copy control information on screen. (see Displaying disc information on-screenon page 25).

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 recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible DVD- RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode.

DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
