Easy DVD recording

The following will help you to understand easily how to record to DVD discs.

Note:

Make sure batteries are in the remote control and you have connected this unit and the TV correctly.

Before you start

Step 1: Choose a disc type

Step 2: Insert a blank disc

There are several types of recordable DVD discs to choose from. Choose a recordable DVD disc type based on your playback/recording/editing needs. See “DVD disc types” at the bottom of this page for more information on the differences among various compatible media.

This DVD recorder can record on the fol- lowing type of discs.

(or)

For example, when you want to record repeatedly on the same disc or when you want to edit the disc after recording, select the rewritable DVD-RW type disc.

When you want to save recordings without any alteration, a non-rewritable DVD-R can be your choice.

Format the disc

When inserting a disc that has already been recorded on, you can delete those contents by formatting that disc.

Formatting is only neces- sary to prepare disc pre- viously recorded on for recording.

Details are on pages 27- 28.

When you format a disc, the entire contents on that disc will be erased.

The unit automatically starts initializing when a brand new disc is inserted.
