Recording Mode

MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture quality, the AbpsB 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 programs where quick movement occurs, such as sports programs, and LP or EP for talk shows, etc. with relatively less movement.

The recording modes for a 4.7 GB disc are set as follows:

Recording mode		Recording amount	Maximum recording
		(approx.)	time (approx.)
	XP	10 Mbps	1 hour
	SP	5 Mbps	2 hours
	LP	2.5 Mbps	4 hours
	EP	1.6 Mbps	6 hours
	60-360	The amount varies	1 – 6 hours
FR	420	depending on the	7 hours
		selected time.
	480		8 hours

●For details on FR mode, refer to AFree Rate FunctionB on the right column.

The recording modes for the HDD are set as follows:

To record the entire program, the unit automatically sets the appropriate recording mode depending on the combination of the total time of the program to be recorded and either the remaining disc space or the specified recording time (from 60 minutes to 480 minutes).

8To record the entire program within the actual remaining disc space (DVD deck only)

Select AFR (JUST)B in a recording mode selection procedure.

●Note that this function is available only when dubbing from HDD to DVD (A pg. 46).

8To record the entire program by specifying the desired recording time

Select AFR60–FR360B, AFR420B or AFR480B in a recording mode selection procedure.

8To record a 25-min. long program five times on the same DVD disc for example

Be sure to set the recording mode to AFR125B to fit the total recording time to the whole disc space.

A: 1st

BlankB: 2nd

C: 3rd

D: 4th

E: 5th

When the same program is recorded in SP mode instead of in AFR125B, the 5th program cannot be recorded.

A: 1st

BlankB: 2nd C: 3rd

D: 4th

E: Blank (20 min.)

NOTES:

●The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same as the recording time of FR480 mode. When dubbing a long program 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 program.

●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.

Recording mode	Maximum recording time (approx.)
DV	18 hours
XP	53 hours
SP	109 hours
LP	218 hours
EP	328 hours
FR480	473 hours

●For details on FR mode, refer to AFree Rate FunctionB.

NOTE:

The maximum recording time stated in the above table are the approximate time under unused condition.
