•Recording time of DR mode may vary depending on the bit rate of broadcasting:
•High Definition (HD) quality: estimated bit rate is 15 Mbps
•Standard Definition (SD) quality: estimated bit rate is 8 Mbps
•Regarding recording time remaining:
Remaining time in the DR mode is calculated with a bit rate of 15 Mbps. But the bit rate differs depending on the broadcast, so the displayed remaining time might be different from the actual remaining time.

§When “Recording time in EP mode” is set to “6 hours” (> 70)
•Regarding recording time remaining:
This unit records using a VBR (Variable bit rate) data compression system to vary recorded data segments to match video data segments which may cause differences in the displayed amount of time and space remaining for recording.
