Recording Options:

Record Destination: Choose whether you want to record to a disc (DVD) or a tape (VCR).

Recording Quality: The better the quality, the more memory (space) the recording will use on the DVD+R or DVD+RW disc or tape. The choices for a disc are:

1

Best

1 hour recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

2

High

2 hours recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

3Good 3 hours recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

4Normal 4 hours recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

5Basic 6 hours recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

6 Low 8 hours recording time on an empty 4.7 GB disc

Tape Speed: Choose between SP (Standard Play) or SLP (Super Long Play) setting for recording on tape.

SmartRecord: Used with Timer Recordings to ensure you have enough space on a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc to record the program. When SmartRecord is on, the DVD/VCR automatically detects how much recording time is left on the disc and adjusts the Recording Quality automatically if necessary. Does not apply for VCR recordings to tape.

Languages:

Display: the language that appears when you access this menu the first time reflects the option you chose during the interactive setup. To change the language of the onscreen displays (menus), use the arrow buttons to highlight a language and press OK to select it.

Audio: the language that appears when you access this menu the first time reflects the option you chose during the interactive setup. You can change the audio language by highlighting an option and pressing the OK button. The language selected will only apply when it is available on the disc.

Subtitles: Some movies on DVD discs have subtitles. Set up your default settings in this menu. You can quickly override these settings while playing a disc by using the Info Display (go to page 41 for information).

Automatic: If the language you selected in the interactive setup isn’t available for the title you’re playing, but subtitles are available in that language—the subtitles for that language will appear automatically during playback.

Off: subtitles won’t appear on the screen.

On: if the title (movie) has subtitles available, they will appear automatically.

Original: subtitle language will match the original audio (dialogue) language of the title (movie).

Disc Menu: Many discs have their own menu that appears on the screen. You can select the language in which you want the disc menu displayed. In order for your setting to take effect, the disc’s menu must have been created with the corresponding language option.
