Recording Speed on the HDD deck
This recorder has a 80 Gbyte hard disk drive. The pictures and
sounds recorded on the HDD deck and other information are
written down on the hard disk drive.
As recording format for the HDD deck, MPEG2 format, the same
for DVD, is used. As a guide for picture quality, the “bps” unit is
used to represent how much data can be recorded per second.
The larger this value, the better the picture quality is but the
more capacity is required for recording. Select SP for
programmes where quick movement occurs, such as sports
programmes, and SEP for talk shows, etc. where relativity less
movement.
The recording speeds of the recorder are set as follows:
* When “LIVE MEMORY” is set to “OFF”. (
