Rec Mode Adjust

If there is not enough available disc space for the recording, the recorder automatically selects the recording mode that will record the entire programme. To use this function, select [AT] for the recording mode and set [PDC/VPS] to [Off].

If timer settings overlap

If timer settings overlap, [Dup. Date] will appear in the Timer List. For details, see “When timer settings overlap” (page 46).

To confirm, change, or cancel timer recording

See “Checking/Changing/Cancelling Timer Settings (Timer List)” (page 46).

zHints

•You can play the recorded programme by selecting the programme title in the Title List menu.

•You can use the recorder after setting the timer. Just press DVD '/1 to turn on the recorder. Press DVD '/ 1 again to set the recorder to standby mode before the timer recording starts.

Notes

•Check that the clock is correctly set before setting the timer recording. If not, the timer recording cannot be made.

To record a satellite programme, turn on the satellite tuner and select the satellite programme you want to record. Leave the satellite tuner turned on until the recorder finishes recording.

•The recorder must be in standby mode for the timer recording to be made.

•Even if the timer is set, timer recordings cannot be made while recording a programme that has priority.

•Even if the timer is set for the same daily or weekly programme, the timer recording cannot be made if it overlaps with a programme that has priority. [Dup.

Date] will appear for the overlapped setting in the Timer List. Check the priority order of the settings (page 46).

•The Rec Mode Adjust function only works with a timer recording and the PDC/VPS function set to off. It does not function with Quick Timer (page 48).

•The beginning of some recordings may not be made when using the PDC/VPS function.

•If the TIMER REC indicator flashes on the front panel, check that a recordable disc is inserted correctly and available recording time on the disc is enough.

The VIDEO Plus+ system is a feature that simplifies setting the timer. Just enter the PlusCode number listed in the TV programme guide. The date, time, and channel of that programme are set automatically.
