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.
