Free Rate Function
To record the entire programme, the unit automatically sets the
appropriate recording mode depending on the combination of the
total time of the programme to be recorded and either the
remaining disc space or the specified recording time (from 60
minutes to 480 minutes).
8To record the entire programme within the actual remaining
disc space
Select “FR (JUST)” in a recording mode selection procedure.
Note that this function is available only for timer programming
recording (pg.29, 31).
8To record the entire programme by specifying the desired
recording time
Select “FR60–FR360”, “FR420” or “FR480” in a recording mode
selection procedure. (pg.26, 29, 31)
8To record a 25-min. long daily programme five times just on
the same DVD disc for example
Perform “SHOWVIEW™ Timer Programming” (pg.29) procedure.
Be sure to set the recording mode to “FR125” and set Weekly/Daily
Rec Function to “MON–FRI” in step6 to fit the total recording time
to the whole disc space.
When the same programme is recorded in SP mode instead of in
“FR125”, the 5th programme cannot be recorded.
NOTES:
You can programme this unit to timer-record, regardless of the disc
remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough,
recording may stop in the middle of a programme. To avoid this, make
sure of the disc remaining time before setting timer programming.
(Example) If you programmed to timer-record for 60 minutes in SP
mode on a 120-minute disc, the disc remaining time would be 30
minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode, 120 minutes in LP
mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240 minutes in FR480 mode.
Timer-recording will not complete beyond these remaining times.
The maximum recording time of “FR (JUST)” mode is the same as
the recording time of FR480 mode. When timer programming a long
programme in “FR (JUST)” mode on a disc whose remaining time is
short, it is recommended to check the disc remaining time in FR480
mode to see if the remaining time is enough for the programme.
Even if more than one programme are timer programmed in “FR
(JUST)” mode, only the first one is recorded.
In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature may
leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the disc.
There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the
disc where the unit switches the mode.
Receiving Stereo And Bilingual Programmes
Your unit is equipped with a Sound-Multiplex decoder (A2) and a
Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) making reception of stereo
and bilingual broadcasts possible.
When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
NOTES:
“SUPERIMPOSE” must be set to “AUTO”. Otherwise the on-screen
displays will not appear. (pg.79)
If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the broadcast
might be received in monaural with better quality.
Selection Of The Audio Channel To Be Recorded On A Disc
When a programme is recorded on a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc in
VR mode, all audio channels of the receiving programme are
recorded on the disc. When you record a programme on a DVD-R
or DVD-RW disc in video mode, select the desired audio channel
(from among “NICAM1/MAIN”, “NICAM 2/SUB”, “MONO”) to be
recorded on the disc. (pg.79)
NOTE:
Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a bilingual
programme, refer to “Audio Channel Selection” on page50.
