What is ’VPS’/‘PDC’?

With ’VPS/PDC’, the TV station controls the beginning and the length of the programmed recording. This means that the video recorder switches itself on and off at the right time even if a TV programme you have programmed begins earlier or finishes later than expected.

Usually the start time is the same as the VPS/PDC time. If, however, in the TV guide, in addition to a TV programmes start time, a different VPS/PDC time is given, e.g.: ’20.15 (VPS 20.14)’, you must enter ’20.14’ as the start time exactly to the minute. If you want to enter a time that differs from the VPS/PDC time, you must switch off ’VPS/PDC’.
