General Features

The DVD-R120 allows you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD-RAM/DVD-RW/DVD-R discs. You can record and edit digital video on DVD- RAM/ DVD-RW/DVD-R discs as if they were VCR tapes.

High quality digital audio and video recording and playback

Record up to 16-hours of video with a double sided 9.4 GB DVD-RAM disc, and up to 8-hours of images with a

4.7GB DVD-RAM/DVD-RW/DVD-R disc, depending on the recording mode.

Selectable Recording Mode

You can set your recorder to one of five different recording speeds, each varying in recording quality and length. EP mode yields the most recording time, LP & SP modes provide less recording time with higher quality recording, and XP mode gives you the highest quality recording. There's also the FR (Flexible Recording) mode that lets you record with the best picture quality possible for the recording time and remaining space on the disc in timer recording.

Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording

If FR mode is selected, the video quality is adjusted automatically so that all video for the scheduled time can be recorded onto the free disc space. (See page 38.)
