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 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 HDD & DVD RECORDER automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.

Using the HDD

Formatting unneccessory.

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 initialize a disc or not. If you select “Yes”, disc will be formatted in VR mode. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Using a DVD-R

Formatting disc is unnecessary and only V Mode Recording is supported. You can play these type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.
