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 detected, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message appears on the screen.

You can only record “Copy-once only” video using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM).

When recording a TV broadcast or an external input, you can display copy control information on the screen.

What is “CPRM”?

CPRM is a scrambling copy protection system for the protection of “copy-once” broadcast programmes. This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programmes, but you cannot make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be played back on DVD players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

Some satellite broadcasts include copy-protected information. If you wish to record them, refer to the following.
