Preparation

•When you record on a DVD-RAM/R/RW disc, load it into the recorder.

–Load a disc which has sufficient remaining space to record the program.

–Make sure the loaded disc is not write-protected.

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 or the contents which will be copied to a DVD-R/RW disc 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 an external source in stereo onto a DVD-R/RW disc, ignoring the setting of “DVD compatible

mode” ( page 184).

•DVD-R/RW discs cannot record contents with copy restriction signal embedded (copy-protected or copy once contents), DVD-RAM discs can record copy once contents.

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

•Depending on the source recording device used and how that device is set up, the video and sound quality of the recording may vary slightly from the video and sound quality of the source device.
