Restrictions on Video Recording

•You cannot record any copy-protected ﬁ lm material with this recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite transmissions. If copy-protected material is en- countered during recording, recording is paused or stopped automatically and an error message appears on the screen.

•Video that can only be copied once can only be recorded using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with CPRM (see below).

•NTSC format signals from analog or DV inputs cannot be recorded correctly with this recorder.

•SECAM format video signals (from an integrated TV tuner or from analog inputs) are recorded in PAL format.

CPRM

CPRM is a copy protection system (with scramble system) that only allows the recording of “copy once“ broadcasts. CPRM is the abbreviation for “Content Protection for Recordable Media”.

This recorder is CPRM compatible. You can therefore record copy-once broadcasts but cannot make copies of these recordings. CPRM recordings are only possible with VR mode formatted DVD-RW discs and can only be played on players with CPRM compatibility.
