Restrictions on video recording
•You cannot record copy-protected video using this
recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-
Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If
copy-protected material is encountered during a
recording, recording will pause or stop automati-
cally and an error message will be displayed on-
screen.
•Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be record-
ed using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode or DVD-
RAM disc with CPRM (see below).
What is ‘CPRM’?
CPRM is a copy protection system (with scramble
system) only allowing the recording of ‘copy once’
broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content
Protection for Recordable Media.
This Recorder is CPRM compatible, which means
that you can record copy-once broadcast programs,
but you cannot then make a copy of those record-
ings. CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-
RW discs formatted in VR mode or DVD-RAM discs,
and CPRM recordings can only be played on players
that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
