The Main Menu

The main menu is divided into the following submenus:

Watch TV – shows current channel number or input.

Disc – plays a disc, accesses the disc title menu, enables you to copy a disc to tape, enables you to create a customized playlist (audio CDs and DVDs), selects the screen format for DVDs, and accesses title menus and disc menus for DVDs. Go to page 48 for details.

Tape – provides options for VCR playback, such as AutoPlay; allows you to copy a tape to disc; allows you to select segments of the tape for editing. Go to page 49.

Disc Library – contains information about all programs you’ve recorded using this DVD/VCR. You can use the Disc Library as a search tool by sorting recorded programs. As much information as possible is stored automatically. The information is stored in the DVD/VCR’s memory and has storage limits. You may need to delete some library contents in the future to make room for new recordings. For detailed information about the Disc Library, go to page 31.

Timers – set up timer recordings and view the list of existing timer recordings. Go to page 50 for general information about this menu. For instructions to set up a timer, go to Chapter 3 (page 30).

Setup – accesses all of the menus from the Interactive Setup (the menus you went through the first time you turned on the product); parental controls (rating limits); record quality settings; language options for on-screen menus and discs; and advanced settings for audio and component video. Go to page 50 for more information.
