Recording functions

6.Start time and stop time

Enter the recording start time and then the stop time.

To this end, and according to the features of the receivers, you must:

-either program the receiver with the same beginning and end times, then switch off the DVD recorder and the receiver,

-or leave the satellite receiver switched on, on the channel to record, program the DVD recorder, then switch it off.

Note: if you selected AV2 during step 4, you do not need to enter the start and stop times, since it is the device that is connected that triggers the start and stop of the recording at the times set via its programming menu.

7.Recording quality

Select a recording quality from the 6 proposed using the key. *1: Best, *2: High, *3: Good, *4: Normal, *5: Basic, *6: Low.

Note: the choice of quality allows an adaptation to the remaining recording time on a DVD disc. The lower the quality is, the more space there will remain on the disc. For example the time available on a blank DVD disc of 4.7 Gb in “Low” quality is around 8 hours, while in “Best” quality the time will only be around 60 minutes. The figure 1 to 6 is displayed in the information banner when playing the recording. The quality choice is only valid for one particular programming session.

For an automatic quality setting in relation to the time remaining on the disc, activate the SmartRecord™ function (page 59).

8.VPS/PDC

Activate the VPS/PDC function using the key to trigger recording at the actual time of the beginning of the broadcast. If the channel broadcasts VPS/PDC signals you can avoid the consequences of any delays in broadcasting.This adjustment is only valid for this programming session and for channels received via the aerial (PR - -).

9.Keep Timer
