Note

• This unit cannot record on CD-RW or CD-R discs.

CD-RW / R discs recorded on a personal computer

or a DVD or CD recorder may not be played back if

the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is

condensation on the unit’s lens.

• If you record on a disc using a personal computer,

there are cases in which it may not be played back

because of the settings of the application software

used to create the disc, even if it is recorded in a

compatible format. (Check with the software

publisher for more detailed information.)

Restrictions on Recording

You cannot record copy-protected video or a programme broadcasted in the NTSC colour system using this unit. Copy-protected video includes DVD- Videos and some satellite broadcasts.

If copy-protected material or NTSC signal 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.

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.
