Restrictions on recording

You cannot record copy-protected video using this unit. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts.

If copy-protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message will be displayed on-screen. Video that is “copy-once only” can only be recorded using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with CPRM (see below).

When recording a TV broadcast or through an external input, you can display copy control informa- tion on screen.

What is “CPRM”?

CPRM is a copy protection system with scram- ble system regarding the recording of “copy once” broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media. This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast pro- grams, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played on DVD players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

Making discs playable in other DVD player (Finalize)

After recording, you must finalize the disc in order to play on other units. (Refer to page 35.)
