Notes

If a source of high quality sound track such as DVD audio is recorded with this recorder, the sound quality becomes regular audio CD quality. Refer to the instructions of the connected equipment.

When you record an external source onto a DVD-R/RW disc (Video mode) or the contents which will be copied to a DVD/R/ RW disc (Video mode) later on, set the connected equipment to output sound you want to record (if selectable such as

multiplex broadcasting), as the recorder records sounds of external source in stereo onto a DVD-R/RW disc, ignoring the

setting of “DVD compatible mode” ( page 28).

DVD-R/RW discs (Video mode) cannot record contents with copy restriction signal embedded (copy-protected or copy once contents), the HDD, DVD-RAM disc, CPRM compatible DVD-R/RW (VR mode) can record copy once contents.

Some satellite programmes via a connected tuner may contain both 4:3 pictures and 16:9 pictures. DVD-R/RW discs (Video mode) cannot record such contents, under restriction of the DVD-Video standard. To record these programmes, use the HDD or DVD-RAM discs.
