PDC (Programme Delivery Control)

The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) assures that the TV programmes you have programmed for timer recording are recorded exactly from beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of the programme duration. Furthermore, if a programme is interrupted, the recording will also be interrupted automatically and resumed when the programme starts again.

If the PDC signal drops out because the broadcast signal is weak, or if a broadcasting station does not transmit a regular PDC signal, the timer recording is performed in normal mode (without PDC) even if it was programmed for PDC. If the starting time of the PDC timer recording is between 0:00 and 3:59 on a given day, the PDC function will operate from 20:00 on the previous day to 4:00 on the given day. If the starting time of the PDC timer recording is between 4:00 and 23:59 on a given day, the PDC function will operate from 0:00 on the day to 4:00 on the given day. This means that if the relevant programme is broadcasted within this period, it is recorded correctly. If the timer is not programmed correctly, the incorrect timer setting stays in effect unless you cancel it. To cancel an incorrect timer setting, refer to “Checking, cancelling, or correcting the timer programming information” on page 29.

Hints for timer recording

If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings will be lost.

If there is no disc or an unrecordable disc in the tray, the DVD indicator will flash and timer recording will not occur. Insert a recordable disc.

If there is no tape or a tape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment, the VCR indicator on the front panel flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable tape.

When all timer recordings are complete, the icon flashes. To play back or eject the recorded disc, press [T-SET], and then press [PLAY P] or [OPEN / CLOSE / EJECT O].
