Helpful Hints

•Use HQ when recording from digital sources, such as a digital camcorder.

•You may choose a record mode simply by pressing the SELECT button while in Monitor mode or when viewing the Index Picture Screen. The record mode will appear at the bottom of the TV screen.

•You can not change record modes during recording.

•If you set Record mode to a low- quality speed (such as EP in order to fit more recording on a Disc), set Record mode to a high-quality speed (such as SP) after you finish recording. Leaving the Recorder set to a low-quality speed may affect the picture quality when playing DVDs later.
