PDC (Programme Delivery Control System)

Programme PDC is a system of telling the recorder when a programme actually starts. Typically, when you want to record a programme you will tell the recorder to start recording, probably, five minutes before the advertised starting time of the programme and to finish ten minutes or so after the programme is due to finish. So even if the programme starts early or finishes late you will normally still get to see what you wanted to record. However when live programmes over-run or the day’s television schedule is changed from that advertized, you may miss the desired programme which may have been delayed or even cancelled and the recorder will record the programme even if it is two or more hours late. With PDC, you enter the exact start time and the recorder will wait until the signal is sent to confirm the programme is starting and the recorder will record the programme even if it is two or more hours late.

:

Perform the normal programmed recording.

DVD-R Broadcast Record :

Change the setting for writing on the DVD-R ( page 143) for each programmed recording.

:

Use this feature when you want to save space while using the best picture quality rate for recording. You can normally use 9.2 Mbps for recording and reduce the rate temporarily for the portion where the high rate is not required if the picture is fairly constant.

Off : This feature is disabled and the normal recording is performed.

On : This feature is enabled.

Notes

When the audio quality is set to “L-PCM”, the picture quality is set to “Manual 8.0 Mbps”. When the audio quality is set to any other selection, the picture quality is set to “Manual 9.2 Mbps”.

While this is set On, you cannot change the mode or rate.

The space availability may not change, depending on the picture contents.

:

This feature automatically creates divisions for chapters when no audio (no audible sound) portion is found.

For example, when you have recorded a programme of music clips, you can use this feature to jump to the beginning of a clip during playback. It does not create completely independent chapters or automatically divide into chapters when no audio portion is found.

Off : This feature is disabled.

On : Division for chapters when no audio portion is found.

Notes

Divisions for chapters may not be created, depending on the contents of the programme or the condition of no audio portion, or it may be created at different positions. A division for a chapter may be created within a music clip.

Depending on the specification made for the recording sound level, a division for a chapter may not be created or it may be created at different positions.

Divisions for chapters cannot be created during playback (including Chase Play and Title Playback by HDD) or while the CONTENT MENU is displayed.

:

You can set a genre before setting programmed recording.

To see the registered list, refer to Genre Setting ( page 143).

Set the genre according to recording contents.

3)Use the / buttons to make a selection, and press ENTER.

The selection you have made for programmed recording is shown under the REC MENU/Timer Programing.
