2.Select Recording Options with the keys, then confirm with OK.

3. Select an option with the	keys, confirm with OK, adjust and confirm with the	EN
keys and OK.

Recording quality

Your DTH 8005 can record several hours of TV programmes or video sequences from a connected device.This capacity depends on the discs and the quality adjustment selected in the Recording Options menu.

Note: all times are approximative. Access to the adjustment menu is impossible if recording is underway.

Depending on the adjustment selected, the recording time of a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc is as follows:

*1 : Best - 1 hour.

*2 : High - 2 hours.

*3 : Good - 3 hours.

*4 : Normal - 4 hours.

*5 : Basic - 6 hours.

*6 : Low - 8 hours.

SmartRecord™

This function allows you to avoid manipulation errors when you wish to record a programme on a disc that is almost full. By activating the SmartRecord™ function your DTH 8005 will adapt the recording quality by positioning it automatically to one of the 6 settings in order to permit entire recording of the desired programme.

VPS/PDC

Triggers all your programming at the actual broadcast times (if the channel broadcasts VPS/PDC signals).

Note: the VPS (Video Programming System) and PDC (Program Delivery Control) signals are transmitted at the same time as certain programmes, by certain channels and in certain European countries. Leave this function active to benefit from its benefits for all your programming. If the channel does not broadcast VPS or PDC signasl, your DTH 8005 will record at the start and stop times selected during the programming of the recording (page 23).
