6.0RECORDING FUNCTIONS & OPTIONS

The Pioneer PRV-9000 Pro DVD-Video Recorder is a stand-alone set-top unit that can make DVD-Video discs with the press of a single button and creates the disc in real time. Recordings are made using either write-once DVD-R or re-recordable DVD-RW discs that are compatible with most DVD-Video players and DVD-ROM drives. In DVD-Video mode, maximum program capacity is either one hour or two hours per disc, and up to 99 separate video segments (titles) can be recorded. The PRV-9000 Pro DVD-Video Recorder can automatically generate a DVD title menu that can be used to access any recorded title on a DVD-R compatible DVD-Video player similar to how movie titles are used. Analog and digital A/V inputs allow easy connection to both legacy and current video sources. The recorder outputs include component, Y/C and composite video signals. This chapter addresses recording features for the PRV-9000.

Timer recordings have a higher priority than the Auto Rec(ord) function. A timer recording command interrupts an Auto Rec session with Auto Rec resuming after the timer recording is complete. For more information about Auto Rec refer to later in this chapter, section 6.3.1 Record from an External Component.

The PRV-9000 recorder supports up to 8 timed recording sessions scheduled up to one month in advance. The timer may also be set to record every day or every week at a specified time.
