•Recordable time is based on the recording time when using a 4.7 GB disc. Since recording capacity varies according to the recorded material, there may be times where there is much more disc space remaining on the disc when recording is completed.
•Values for recording time shown in parentheses ( ) indicate the time of Exact Rec. function. (A recordable time of about 300 minutes in the LP mode is the recordable time in the VR mode.)
*Since recording by DVD is performed using VBR (variable bit rate, refer to the section on VBR Control on page 103) with the exception of some recording modes, recording time varies according to the recorded material.
•Recordable time may be shorter than that indicated above in the case of recording material of poor image quality such as broadcasts from televisions with poor reception.
•The total of recording time and remaining time may not always agree with the recordable time of the recording mode.
