Recording

The recording function involves inputting video/audio signals from a VTR or other video playback device (“external VTR”), converting those signals to data compatible with the DVD video format, and recording that data on the hard disk or a DVD-R/RW disc. A playback video/audio signal is simultaneously output. If the SET UP section = [Operation] = [Video Settings] = [Composite Out] is set to “Source Monitor”, the input image will be passed through during recording as well (see page 32). In addition, in the event this command is set to “Decoder Out”, the output signal will be the encoded/decoded version of the original input video/audio signal.

Note 1:

The playback video signal is delayed about 4 seconds with respect to the input signal due to the time required for encoding and decoding.

Note 2:

Recording will not begin if a copy-guard protected input signal is detected.

Note 3:

If [Composite Out] is set to “Source Monitor” (pass-through output), when OSD is set to ON during recording, the video and audio will switch to “Decoder Out” (encode/decode output).

Note 4:

Turn off the power of the recorder and then turn it back on again if the disc does not come out even when a drive error has occurred.

Selecting the TV System Mode

Using the CURSOR button and ENTER button, select either “NTSC” or “PAL”. When changing from the currently selected system, a confirmation dialogue box will be displayed.
