Timer Recording

Before Recording

Before you start recording...
• This recorder can record on various discs. Select
the disc type according to your needs (page 8).
• Check that the disc has enough available space
for the recording (page 36). For HDD,
DVD+RWs, and DVD-RWs, you can free up
disc space by erasing titles (page 75).
• Adjust the recording picture quality and picture
size if necessary (page 54).
z Hint
Timer recordings will be made regardless of whether or
not the recorder is turned on. You can turn off the
recorder without affecting the recording even after
recording starts.
Note
To play a recorded disc on other DVD equipment,
finalize the disc (page 46).

Recording mode

Like the SP or LP recording mode of VCRs, this
recorder has eight different recording modes.
Select a recording mode according to the time and
picture quality you need. For example, if picture
quality is your top priority, select the High Quality
mode (HQ). If recording time is your priority,
Super Extended Play mode (SEP) can be a
possible choice. Note that recording times in the
following table are approximate and actual time
may differ. Note also that the maximum
continuous recording time for a single title is eight
hours. Contents beyond this time will not be
recorded.
Press REC MODE repeatedly to switch the
recording modes.
