■
When you are recording at EP mode on a
DVD-RW(V)/R disc, it may not record the
full 6 or 8 hours because the unit uses the
VBR(Variable Bit Rate) ENCODING system.
For example, if you record a program with a
lot of action, it uses a higher bit rate which
in turn consumes more disc memory.

After recording of the first program is
