Copy-Protected Material
When attempting to record copy-protected material, the
Record functions of the NetCommand and IEEE 1394
systems may be prevented or stopped. If you have a
recording that is tagged “Record Once”, NetCommand
will not allow the recording to be moved.
Restrictions for Traditional VCRs
If turned On, the media center must be tuned to the
source device.
• Your VCR should be connected directly to Monitor
Output Audio and Video.
• The VCR must be set manually to “Line Input”.
Display the Device Selection menu, highlight the VCR
and press GUIDE to change VCR inputs.
• The media center can select channels on compatible
cable boxes for recordings. Leave the cable box
turned on.
• If the source device or recording device does not
have separate power On and Off features, then leave
that device powered On.
