Recording

05

For a DVD timer recording, if Optimized Rec (see Optimized Rec on page 116) is set to On, the recorder will adjust the recording quality to try and fit the recording on the disc. If the recording will not fit onto the disc even on MN1 (MN4 for DVD+R/+RW) recording quality then the Recovery Recording feature will automatically make the recording to the HDD instead.

If there is very little free space left on the HDD, an Auto Replace Recording may not complete successfully.

If the HDD is being used for playback or high-speed copying when an Auto Replace Recording is due to start, the new timer recording will not replace the old one. However, the next time the timer recording starts, both of the older two programs will be erased.
