Suggestions for the picture quality setting

For normal recording or when you cannot decide which mode to choose. Select “SP.”

When you do not have to preserve the recorded content longer. Select “LP.” Inferior to “SP” in picture quality, but it can record longer.

To record a high picture quality

Select “Manual” to set a desired bit rate. The higher the bit rate, better the picture quality is, but shorter the recording length becomes. We recommend that you set about 6.0 Mbps to 6.8 Mbps.

To fill the disc

Select “Auto.” A bit rate is calculated automatically according to the remaining volume of the disc. Some contents may not be recorded on the disc even if you select this function. This is not the function to make full use of the remaining space capacity.
