Protect your recordings from accidental deletion or overwriting.
Album: Pictures: Recordings: The entire disc:
Formatting
If using an unformatted disc, you must format it before the first recording. Formatting
prepares the media, such as a recordable DVD-RAM, for recording.
All data is irreversibly erased.
For recording
The recording is saved to free areas on the disc. If there is no more space left on the
disc/HDD, you must delete recordings or use a new disc.
Continuous recording or playback of both sides of a double-sided disc is not possible.
After the end of the recording, the unit needs approx. 30 seconds to record data for
recording management.
Conventional DVD-Vs are usually equipped with copy protection and cannot be copied.
If you activated write-protection, remove it before processing.

You cannot record on the hard disk and on a DVD at the same time. The internal
hard disk saves up to 443 hours of your recordings when set to [EP ( 8 Hours )].
Longer recordings are divided into 8-hour segments.
Remaining recording time on the hard disk
This unit records with a data compression system (VBR - Variable bit rate). The
length of the programmed recording is adjusted variably to the video data being
recorded. This is why the display of the remaining recording time can differ from the
remaining recording length. If there is not enough storage space for a recording,
delete old titles from the hard disk.
Deleting playback lists does not enlarge the storage space.
