DVD-R Rec for High Speed mode

When high speed transferring (dubbing) a title to DVD-R, it is necessary to turn this setting “On” before recording to the HDD, however the screen size etc. is restricted (➡right). We recommend turning the setting “Off” when recording to media other than DVD-R.

You cannot transfer (dub) titles to a DVD-R using the high speed mode if you recorded the programme on a DVD recorder that does not have the “DVD-R Rec for High Speed mode” function, even when transferring (dubbing) to the HDD with this setting “On”.

≥On: Makes high speed mode transferring (dubbing) to DVD-R possible. Press [2, 1] to select “Yes” and press

[ENTER]. [“ ” appears in the transferring (dubbing)

list. ➡page 33]
