Auto Replace Rec. – Automatically erases the previous daily or weekly recording when the next one is recorded.

Genre – Select a record genre (for HDD recording only).

Dual Mono Recording – Select which channel of a dual mono broadcast to record (necessary if recording to a Video mode DVD or to the HDD with the HDD Recording Format set to Video Mode On).

HDD Recording Format – Select Video Mode On or Video Mode Off depending on whether you need high-speed copying to Video mode DVD capability or not.

5After entering all the timer recording information, highlight ‘Store Programme’ and press ENTER.

The timer recording list screen is displayed again. The timer programme you just input appears in the list. The rightmost column shows various timer recording status messages:

•OK – Can be recorded.

•Time Over – Not enough space on the HDD (the recording won’t finish).

•Over 12h – Recording time of over 12 hours set (when recording to the HDD the recording will be split into two titles).

•Overlap – Two timer programmes partially or completely overlap. The one starting earlier will take priority.

•Until ... (eg., Until 13/8) – For a regular recording, the last programme that could be recorded is shown.

•Data Over –Can’t record because the disc management area of the disc is full.

•Cancel Once – A regular timer programme is set to skip.

•Can’t Rec – Not possible to record.

•Title Over – Can’t record because there is already the maximum number of titles on the disc (HDD: 999; DVD: 99).

•Recording – The programme is currently recording.

•Standby – The recorder is in timer recording standby.

•nothing displayed – Another timer recording or copying is in progress.

Tip

•To enter a title name for the timer recording in advance, select Set Title Name and follow the on-screen display.

Note

•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 999 titles on the HDD or if there is not enough free space on the HDD for recording.)

•For a DVD timer recording, if Optimized Rec (see Optimized Rec on page 110) 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 programmes will be erased.
