General
Which discs can I use for recording?
With this DVD recorder, you can record on two types of DVD:
DVD+RW
This disc can be written to and then the contents deleted.
DVD+R
This type of disc can only be recorded once.
If you want to play this DVD in a DVD player it must be finalized using the
'Finalise disc' function. It is not possible to make further recordings using
this disc.
If this disc is to be played in a DVD recorder it must not be finalised.
Recordings can be added and deleted. The disc space (playback time) from the
deleted recording cannot be recovered for further recordings
?
Use the 'Manual recording' function to spontaneously start recording (e.g. to record a TV show
already in progress).
In the 'index display' select the title to be overwritten or 'Empty title' with CH- B , CH+ A .
If you insert recordings between existing recordings, check the lengths of the old and new
recordings. If the new recording is too long the subsequent recording (title/chapter) will be
overwritten.
Insert new recordings at the end of all existing recordings (Safe
Record)
To add a new recording at the end of the last recording on the disc, hold
down the REC/OTR n button until the message 'SAFE REC' appears on the
display.
For DVD+R discs each new recording is always added at the end of all
previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten.
End of disc is reached
If the end of a disc is reached during recording, recording will stop and the
Recorder will turn itself off automatically.
Tip
Please refer to section 'Recording without automatic switchoff', if you want to manually
start and stop your own recording.
If you want to start a recording manually but have it stopped automatically, read the section
'Recording with automatic switchoff'. (e.g. not to record to the end of the disc)
Read the section 'Automatic recording from a satellite receiver', if you want a recording
to be controlled automatically by a satellite receiver.
Read the section 'Direct record' if you want to record a programme currently being shown.
