RECORDING/PLAYBACK ON HDD DECK (cont.)

Live Memory

Features

Equipped with a hard disk drive, this recorder allows
information to be written to and read from the hard disk at high
speeds. Taking advantage of this feature, you can temporarily
record programmes received with the tuner or from an externally
connected equipment, and can watch them only a few seconds
behind actual air time.
In this recorder, viewing a programme through HDD (not a
recorded programme) means you are always watching the
programme temporarily recorded on it.
This feature enables you to reverse the programme back to view
or record any previous part of it. This is called “Live Memory
Playback” or “Live Memory Recording”, which was impossible
until now.
You can select the length of the time for temporary recording
from off, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 3 hours (墌pg. 81).

About “Live Memory Playback”

With a certain amount of space (for 30 minutes, 1 hour and 3
hours) reserved on the hard disk, the recorder records broadcasts
being received or signals input from an externally connected
equipment.
Even while you are reversing the programme to review any
previous part, the recorder continues recording the same
programme or externally-input signals.
NOTE:
When the reserved amount of time (or space) runs out, the
recorder overwrites the previous recordings on the hard disk,
starting with the oldest one, repeatedly if necessary. After having
recorded a certain number of programmes, if you try to increase
the amount of your reserved time on HDD, you may not be
allowed to do so because of possible lack of available space,
and the recorder will inform you of this by displaying a message
on the screen.
