	Notes:
	The quality and recording time are interdependent. The better
	the quality, the more memory the recording requires. This
	means that the recording time is shorter in high quality mode
	than in standard quality mode.
	The recording quality (HQ, SP, SP+, LP, EP, SLP or SEP) is selected
	automatically during playback.
	Playback is viewed with the recording quality that was selected
	for the recording.		ENGLISH
