Library (disc)

The (disc) library brings together the names of all the titles recorded to the different DVD+R/+RW discs in your DVD collection.When the disc library screen is displayed, the titles are listed to the left with one title selected.The images on this title are displayed in the frame on the right hand side with its recording parameters.The titles are presented six by six.To see the other titles, use the key to scroll through the list.

Note: if a disc appears in front of the name of a title it means that the disc is loaded in your DVD recorder.

Note: For recordings that you have made directly or for those you have programmed, without providing them with names, appear along with the name of the channel, the time and date.

Note: the Library may be accessed even if there is no disc in the recorder.

Note:The titles and names of programmes (Pr1, Pr2, AV2, ..) and times correspond to those recordings that you have not renamed (Modify title function).

Note: Depending on the duration of the recordings, the number of titles and/or the number of discs, we may estimate that the library may contain the names of 400 titles created on the different discs in your DVD collected (DVD+R or +RW discs only) on the internal DVR hard disc.
