Before starting a recording, you will usually want to set the picture quality/recording time. There are six standard settings available, which allow you to choose a balance between picture quality and recording time.
When Manual Recording is set to On (see Manual Recording on page 123), a further option will be available (MN1 to MN32 or LPCM, depending on what you set).
When recording to DVD+R/+RW, SLP is the longest recording time available. If you select SEP or MN1 to MN3, the recording mode will automatically revert to SLP.
