Timer programming

The DVD recorder needs the following information for every programmed recording:

-the date on which the recording is to be made;

-the channel;

-the start and stop time of the recording;

-VPS/PDC on or off;

-the recording mode (HQ, SP, LP or EP).

The DVD recorder stores all the information mentioned above in a timer block. You can programme up to six timer blocks, one month in advance.

When you have programmed the timer, a red line on the disc bar (both on the display and on the Index Picture Screen) indicates what part of the disc will be overwritten by the programmed recording from the current disc position (on DVD+RW) or after the last title (on DVD+R).
