●Recording sometimes may stop or cannot be performed even if there is enough available capacity remaining on the disc.

MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture quality, the “bps” unit is used to represent how much data can be recorded per second. The larger this value is, the better the picture quality becomes but more capacity is required for the recording. Select XP or SP for programmes where quick movement occurs, such as sports programmes, and LP or EP for talk shows, etc. with relatively less movement.
