Index Picture Screen 35

The Index Picture Screen shows your recordings on a DVD+RW or DVD+R. It appears automatically when you insert a DVD+R or DVD+RW or when you stop playback or recording. A DVD+RW or DVD+R must be in the Recorder and contain recordings.

An Index Picture represents each recording. Next to the Index Picture is the program name, length of recording, recording mode/speed, and date of recording. If the recording has no name, the recording source and time will appear instead (for example, the recorded channel and the time at which you started recording the channel).

Empty disc areas (erased Titles or blank space at the end of the Disc) also appear in the Index Picture Screen. “Empty title” and the amount of remaining recording time appear beside the empty Index Picture box.

The Index Picture Screen will dim after several minutes of no use. This prevents damage to your TV screen. To brighten the Index Picture Screen again, use the DVD Recorder or its remote control to access the regular features of the Index Picture Screen.

Titles

A maximum of three Index Pictures appears on the screen at once. Press 89 to move to additional recordings, if available.

Press STOP C briefly to move directly to the first recording on the Disc. Press and hold NEXT for a couple of seconds to move quickly to the last recording on the Disc or to the last Empty Title.

Disc Bar

The Disc Bar appears at the right of the Index Picture Screen. This overviews all recordings on the Disc, as well as any empty spaces.

On the Disc Bar, the Disc Pointer indicates your current position on the Disc. Moving through the recordings by pressing 89 moves the Disc Pointer. On a DVD+RW, resume playback or recording from this point by pressing OK for playback or REC/OTR for recording. Later recordings will be over- written. On a DVD+R, resume playback from the Disc Pointer location by pressing OK. However, on a DVD+R, recording automatically begins at the last empty title space when you press REC/OTR.

Title Settings Menu

When you select an Index Picture, press : to go to the Title Settings menu for that recording. Here, you can edit the current Title name, play the entire Title, or erase the selected Title.
