Advanced Recording
Depending on the content being recorded, the recording times may become shorter than indicated.
(The times provided on this table are an estimate.)
§1
It is not possible to record or play continuously from one side of a
double sided disc to the other.
§2
When “Recording time in EP mode” has been set to “EP ( 6 hours )”
in the Setup menu (> 68).
The sound quality is better when using “EP ( 6 hours )” than when
using “EP ( 8 hours )”.
§3
Refer to “Recording to DVD-R DL and +R DL” (> 27).
Notes
This unit uses variable bit rate (VBR) recording which varies the
amount of data recorded to suit the picture quality, so actual recording
times and remaining recording times shown by the unit will be
different. ([-R]DL] [+R]DL] The difference will be especially noticeable.)
Use a disc with enough remaining blank space.
When recording to DVD-RAM using EP ( 8 hours ) mode, play may
not be possible on DVD players, even if they are compatible with
DVD-RAM. In this case use EP ( 6 hours ) mode.
Tips
Maximum number of titles to a disc
[RAM] [-R] [ -R] DL] [-RW‹V›] 99 titles on a disc
[+R] [+R]DL] [+RW] 49 titles on a disc
FR (Flexible recording mode)
Using “Flexible Recording” is convenient in these kinds of situations:
When the amount of free space on the disc makes selecting an
appropriate recording mode difficult
When you want to record a long programme with the best picture
quality possible
You can set FR mode when programming timer recordings and
flexible recording (> 30).
Tips
To prevent recording errors:
Set a timer recording period slightly longer than the actual programme
(to make sure the programme is recorded in full).
AUTO Mode
Timer Recording
The tape length must be set correctly (> 71).
Picture distortion may occur when the recording mode switches.
This may not work correctly with some video cassettes.
It may not work correctly when “NTSC” is set as the “TV System”
(> 70).
