Basic recording from the TV
Basic recording from the TV involves just
setting the channel to record, choosing
whether to record to the HDD or a DVD and
selecting the recording quality.
1 Select the HDD or
DVD for recording.
• If you’re recording to DVD, load a
recordable disc (if you load a new blank
DVD-RW or DVD+RW disc, the recorder
takes a short while to initialize the disc).
• If you want to record a VR mode DVD-R
or a Video mode DVD-RW, you must
initialize it before proceeding (see
Initializing recordable DVD discs on
page49).
2 Select a TV channel to record.
The front panel display shows the channel
number:
• While the recorder is stopped, you can
also use the number buttons on the
remote to select the channel (e.g., for
channel 24, press 2, 4 then ENTER).
• If the recorder is stopped, you can also
use the CH+/– buttons on the front
panel to select the channel number.
3 Set the picture quality/recording
time.
• See Setting the picture quality/recording
time on page36 for detailed in structions.
4 Select the audio channel to
record.
See Changing audio channels on page35 for
more on this.
Taiwan and Philippines model:
• When recording in VR mode (DVD) or
with HDD Recording Format set to Video
Mode Off (HDD), both mono and SAP
audio channels are recorded, allowing
you to switch the audio channel on
playback. The only exception to this is
when the picture quality is set to LPCM,
in which case you do need to select the
audio channel before recording.
Note
1• Taiwan and Philippines model: Audio is recorded in 16-bit Linear PCM format, video is recorded at XP quality.
When recording a broadcast with a SAP channel, select which audio channel to record (see Dual Mono
Recording on page111).
• Other: Audio is recorded in 16-bit Linear PCM format, video is recorded at XP quality. When recording a
bilingual broadcast, select which audio channel to record (see Bilingual Recording on page 111).
2Applicable only to HDD recording. (If this setting is used when recording to DVD, MN32 is used.) When copied
to DVD, XP+ recordings are always copied in real time.
