To record from Ant-1, Ant-2 or other devices, see NetCommand Controlled Recordings.

Copy-Protected Material

When attempting to record copy-protected material, the Record functions of the NetCommand and IEEE 1394 systems may be prevented or stopped. If you have a recording that is tagged “Record Once”, NetCommand will change the tag to “Record No More”.

Restrictions for Traditional VCRs

If turned On, the TV must be tuned to the source device.

•Your VCR should be connected directly to Audio Video 1.

•The VCR must be set manually to “Line Input”. Display the Device Selection menu, highlight the VCR and press GUIDE to change VCR inputs.

•The TV can select channels on compatible cable boxes for recordings. Leave the cable box turned on.

•If the source device or recording device does not have separate power On and Off features, then leave that device powered On.
