•Pressing any button other than the EXTEND button completes this procedure to determine the end time.

•This operation must be performed prior to 1 minute before the programmed end time.

•A recording automatically finishes when the disc is full or when the recording exceeds 8 hours regardless of whether or not you delayed the end time.

Notes

•You cannot close the disc tray automatically at the recording start time. If you want to record on a DVD-RAM disc, load it on the recorder beforehand.

•While recording, you cannot change the settings of a programme, such as the channel, mode, etc.

•The number of titles cannot exceed in any case 99 for a DVD-RAM and 198 for the HDD.

•You cannot record on both an HDD and a DVD-RAM disc at the same time (except relay recording).

•The maximum length of a recording is 8 hours. Recording automatically stops when length exceeds 8 hours.

•While performing a programmed recording, you cannot programme a new entry.

•You may not be able to start recording if there is too little time before a programmed recording begins.

•If a power failure occurs during a programmed recording, a recorded content between the power failure and power recovery is lost.

•If an HDD starts programmed recording while you are playing a disc in the DVD drive, the picture may pause momentarily.

•When you record monaural sound, the same sound is recorded to both left and right channel.

•To select NICAM, set “NICAM” to “On” ( page 140).

•When you set “DVD-R Broadcast Record” to “Mode I” or “Mode II” ( page 143), only the selected sound of the bilingual programme (main or sub) is recorded. When setting “DVD-R Broadcast Record” to “Off”, you need to have set “NICAM” to “On”. (If the NICAM setting is “Off”, the NICAM sound will not be recorded.)

Entering the recording format on the DVD-R

When “DVD-R Broadcast Record” is set to “Off”, make sure “NICAM” is set to “On” and “L-PCM” is selected for sound.
