Timer recording with video or DVD recorder
You can programme timer recordings on the TV set. Programming can be
done with the EPG programme guide (not with DVB-T in UK), teletext or
manually. Call the “Timer list” menu with the
button and press the
red colour key for the “Recording wizard”. Select whether you want to
programme the recording via EPG, teletext or manually. You also have the
option to programme recordings directly from the EPG programme guide
or teletext.
Note: Copy-protected programmes are not output to the Euro-AV sockets
for legal reasons.
When you have connected the Euro-AV socket to a recorder which has
Digital Link Plus or a comparable system from a different manufacturer,
the timer data of analogue terrestrial stations are transmitted from the
TV to the recorder. The recording quality SQ or EQ is transmitted for DVD
recorders, in additional to the station, date and time. The recording is then
controlled by the recorder and the recorder tuner is used for reception of
the station. The recording data are not saved in the timer list of the TV set.
You will only find the timer data in the recorder.
If you want to record from digital stations, the TV tuner is used and the
recorder is controlled by the TV set. Then the station is locked during the
timer recording.
If you have connected a Loewe video recorder with Digital Link to the
Euro-AV socket (without Digital Link Plus) and you are using the timer
programming of the TV, the TV receiver is always used, for terrestrial
stations as well. The TV controls the recording.
You have to set the recorder to the AV input (signal source) to which the TV
set is connected.
Then the station on the TV set is locked during the timer recording.
Digital Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the operating
instructions of your Loewe recorder.Use only Euro-AV cables, which are
completely shielded, otherwise Digital Link/Digital Link Plus will not work.
Another advantage of Digital Link is that you can install the recorder in a
concealed place (e.g. in a rack). You can control the recorder with the TV
set.
If you have a Loewe recorder with both systems, you can use all the
advantages. The advantages of Digital Link Plus are used for the timer
recording; the advantages of Digital Link for concealed installation of the
recorder.
Video playback
There are several ways to see the picture and hear the sound of the VCR,
DVD player/recorder or camcorder on your TV:
1. You can usually use the Euro-AV sockets on the TV set and on the VCR.
For camcorders or digital cameras, use the AVS sockets on the right of
the TV set. DVD players/recorders and SetTopBoxes may have HDMI or
component sockets for video and audio transmission. In this case, use
the corresponding sockets on the TV set.
When playing back from a video recorder using Euro-AV socket and
Digital Link Plus (or a comparable system from another manufacturer),
the picture from the VCR is shown at the current programme location.
When playing back from another VCR, camcorder or digital camera, use
the AV selection
AV
or the station list (OK) to select the AV socket/
the device to which the VCR is connected.
Video recorders transmit a switching voltage during playback, which
the TV can evaluate (can be activated in the connection wizard or in the
“TV menu – Connections – Miscellaneous – Allow switching voltage“ -
set to “yes“). Then the picture of the video recorder is shown during
playback at the current station location.
2. You can use the antenna connection between the VCR and the TV
without a Euro-AV socket. The sound is only transmitted in mono.
Select the first menu item, e.g. VIDEO, in the AV selection.
Calling AV inputs in the AV selection:
Call AV selection
Select AV device/socket (or VIDEO if the video recorder has
been connected only via the antenna socket) and use ...
to call.
Now you will see the playback from the connected AV device.
Calling AV input via the station list
Call the station list with the OK button in TV mode.
In the numeric and alphabetical sorting, you will always find the AV sockets
at the top of the list.
