Note

•The rightmost column in the timer recording screen (Confirm) shows whether there’s enough space to record your timer program. If you selected a daily or weekly program, the date of the last recording that will fit on the disc appears (up to a maximum of one month ahead).

•If you set a DVD timer recording but there is no recordable DVD disc loaded, or the disc loaded doesn’t have enough free space for the complete recording, Recovery is shown. In this case (unless you load a suitable disc before the recording actually starts), the recorder will use the HDD for recording. (The message Can’t Rec will appear if there are already 250 titles on the HDD or if there is not enough free space on the HDD for recording.)
