4.Once the DVD recorder reads the disc’s contents, the main menu appears. If the main menu doesn’t appear, press MENU (the main menu appears).

Notes:

If you selected Autoplay On in the Disc Options menu (page 44), the disc’s title menu appears automatically when you insert the disc.

Disc Title Menu: Press OK when this menu option is highlighted (all of the recordings/titles on the disc appear). Use the arrow buttons to highlight the title you want to select:

To watch the program that you’ve highlighted, press PLAY.

If you want to name the program, delete it, or change the play mode, press OK (the options appear).
