ENGLISH
What is 'VPS/PDC'?
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC' (Programme Delivery Control) are used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than was scheduled, the video recorder will then turn on and off and the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
Usually the start time is the same as the VPS or PDC time. But if your TV guide gives a VPS or PDC time which is different from the programme's start time, e.g. '20.15 (VPS/PDC 20.14)', you must enter the VPS/PDC time '20.14' exact to the minute as the start time.
If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS or PDC time, you must switch off VPS or PDC.
Only one TV program of a TV channel can be controlled using 'VPS/PDC' at a time. If you want to record two or more TV programmes on a TV channel using 'VPS/PDC', you will need to programme these as two separate recordings.
