Disc Recordings
Tracks you record to disc may have copy restrictions
assigned to them. To learn a track’s copy status,
highlight a track in the Track List and press INFO. Tracks
are assigned one of these ratings:
COPY FREE
(or no status shown)
No copy restrictions apply.
COPY NEVER
The track cannot be transferred to
another recording device. Tracks
of this type may have an assigned
retention period. See below for
more information.
COPY NEVER,
MOVABLE
You can transfer the track to a
different recording device. The
track on disc is deleted as it is
moved.
Retention Period
Some COPY NEVER
tracks have a retention period
assigned by the content provider. The retention period is
the length of time you can keep and view the recording.
The initial retention period, if any, is shown next to the
copy status in the Track List INFO display (see figure 10).
To see how much time remains of the retention period,
start viewing the recording and press INFO.
Note: The retention period for all tracks on the disc
expires if there is any loss of power to the TV, even
momentary. For example, expiration of the retention
period will occur if you:
• Unplug the TV from the AC power source.
• Experience a power outage or power fluctuation.
Remember that you can safely turn off TV power
using the POWER button without affecting the
retention period.

More about Moving Recordings
• Plan to move recordings at a time when you can
complete the move without interruption. If there is any
interruption (e.g., pressing CANCEL or a power loss)
while a COPY NEVER, MOVABLE recording is being
made, only the part not yet moved will remain on the
TV Disc.
• TV Disc and the destination device are unavailable
during a move operation. Press DEVICE and select a
different device from the Device Selection menu.
• You may lose the first 20 to 30 seconds of content
when the recording is moved.
• The move operation lasts as long as the full run-time
of the recording.
• If you interrupt the move, you may lose an additional
20 to 30 seconds of content each time the process is
restarted.
• Opening TV Guide On Screen during a move will
interrupt the move and result in loss of content. If
you wish to use TV Guide On Screen during a move,
be sure to lock the Video Window when you first
open the Guide. Please see the TV Guide On Screen
User’s Manual for instructions on locking the Video
Window.
