Free Rate FunctionSecond Audio Recording

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 for timer programming recording (A pg. 46, 48) and dubbing from HDD to DVD (A pg. 57).

8To record the entire program by specifying the desiredrecording time

Select AFR60–FR360B, AFR420B or AFR480B in a recording mode selection procedure. (A pg. 34, 37, 46, 48)

8To record a 25-min. long daily program five times just onthe same DVD disc for example

Perform AVCR Plus+ Timer ProgrammingB (A pg. 46) procedure. Be sure to set the recording mode to AFR125B and set Weekly/ Daily Rec Function to AMON-FRIBin step 8 to fit the total recording time to the whole disc space.

This unit’s built-in MTS decoder enables reception of Multichannel TV Sound broadcast. To record a SAP program received, set A2ND AUDIO RECORDB to AONB. (A pg. 72)

NOTES:

When the channel is changed on the unit;

The AMONOB indicator appears on the screen for about 5 seconds if the program is a monaural broadcast.

The ASTEREOB indicator appears on the screen for about 5 seconds if the program is a stereo broadcast.

Both ASTEREOB and ASAPB indicators appear when a stereo program is accompanied by SAP sound.

Both AMONOB and ASAPB indicators appear when the main audio on the monaural broadcast is accompanied by SAP sound.

NOTES:

You can program this unit to timer-record, regardless of the disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough, the unit performs ARelief RecordingB (A pg. 48). 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 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.

Even if more than one program 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.
