Recording Settings
Manual Recording On (go to setup) All the standard recording modes, plus MN1–32, LPCM and XP+
modes can be set.
Off • Just the standard recording modes (XP, SP, LP, EP, SLP and SEP) can be
set.
See also Manual recording modes on page 107 for detailed information on manual recording levels.
Optimized Rec On The recording quality of timer recordings is automatically adjusted to
fit on to the selected media if it will not fit at the selected quality set-
ting. If the recording will not fit even at MN1, then the recording will
start at MN1 and stop when all the available space is used up.
Off • When a timer recording is set that won’t fit on to the selected media,
the recording starts but is cut off when no more recording is possible.
Optimized Rec will only compensate for the next scheduled timer recording if more than one is set.
Set Thumbnail 0 seconds • Sets the default thumbnail picture in the Disc Navigator to the first
frame of the title.
30 seconds Sets the default thumbnail picture to 30 seconds into the title.
3 minutes Sets the default thumbnail picture to 3 minutes into the title.
Auto Chapter (Video) No Separation Automatic chapter marking is switched off.
10 minutes • When recording in Video mode, chapter markers are inserted every 10
minutes.

DVD-RW Auto Init. VR Mode • Blank DVD-RW discs are initialized for VR mode recording when
loaded into the recorder for the first time.
Video Mode Blank DVD-RW discs are initialized for Video mode recording.
HDD Recording Format Video Mode Off Recordings made to the HDD are made in VR mode. Use this setting if
you don’t need to transfer the recording later to a Video mode DVD.
Video Mode On • Recordings made to the HDD are compatible with Video mode record-
ings. This setting is convenient if you want to transfer the recording to
a Video mode DVD as high-speed copy can be used.
When Video Mode On is used, you must select the audio channel you want to record when recording a bilingual broadcast. On the Video Mode Off
setting, both channels will be recorded and you can switch between them on playback. See also Bilingual Recording on page 94.
