CPRM

CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system regarding 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 recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible DVD- RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode.

DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

Setting the picture quality/recording time

Before starting a recording, you will usually want to set the picture quality/recording time. There are four standard settings available, which allow you to choose a balance between picture quality and recording time.

It’s also possible to create a fifth, ‘manual’ setting for picture quality/recording time. Before you can select this, however, you will need to set the Manual Recording option in the Initial Settings menu (see Manual Recording on page 78).

You can also use the front panel controls: Press FUNCTION repeatedly until the display shows REC MODE, then use the SMART JOG dial to select the recording mode.

•FINE – Fine picture quality

•SP – Standard play

•LP – Long play

•EP – Extended play

•MN – Manual (available only when manual recording is on)

The setting is indicated in the front panel display, and shown on-screen together with the recording time for a blank recordable disc. If a recordable disc is loaded, the approximate remaining recording time for that disc is also shown. (Note that if the On Screen Display setting (see On Screen Display on page 72) is Off then this information is not displayed.)
