Timer Recording Troubleshooting
Even though the timer is set, the recorder will not
record when:
There is no disc loaded.
A non-recordable disc is loaded.
Disc Protect is set to ON in the Setup menu
(see page 27).
Power is turned on.
There are already 99 titles recorded on the disc.
You cannot enter a timer program when:
A recording is already underway.
The time you’re trying to set has already passed.
There are already 7 timer programs set.
If two or more timer programs overlap:
The earlier program takes priority.
When the earlier program finishes, the later program
starts.
If two programs are set to start at exactly the same
time, the program entered first takes priority.
If the disc is damaged, the recording may not complete
successfully. In this case even though the Check field
shows “Rec. OK”, it may not be.
