Notes
•See page 66 for details on “Mode”, “Rate”, and “Audio”.
•Other recording procedures are also available. See page 67.
•When you set the bit rate below about 4.0 Mbps, playback of some speed may not work correctly. There will be noise, and the picture quality is lower than other rate settings.
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. For saving discs to make a collection of dramas or cartoons, 3.2 Mbps is also recommended. You can fill a double sided disc with about 14 progams of 30 minutes from which unnecessary portions are deleted.
•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.
