How to use the

 

 

 

HDD & DVD RECORDER

 

 

 

 

 

Step 1 Select the disc type or HDD

 

This unit can record on the following types of discs. If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable DVD-RW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you want to save a recording without any changes, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R. You can record files directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded file.

Step 2 Format the disc to start recording

Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.

Using a HDD

Formatting unneccessory.

Using a DVD-RAM

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded image and create a playlist and edit images in a specific sequence according to your requirements.

Using a DVD-RW

This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD- Video format (V mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Using a DVD-R

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD Video format. After formatting is complete, you can record on the disc. You can play this type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.
