≥Using Flexible Recording (> 30), you can record the content of a video cassette (approx. 1–8 hours) to a 4.7 GB disc with the best possible quality of recording without wasting disc space.

Notes

≥When timer recording starts while recording from an external device, timer recording takes priority and recording from the external device stops.

≥If video is copied from another piece of equipment to this unit, then the video quality will be degraded.

≥Almost all videos and DVD-Video on sale have been treated to prevent illegal copying. Any software that has been so treated cannot be recorded using this unit.
