Tour Three: Now Playing and Copy* To DVD
Copying* a Program From Now Playing to a DVD
Your Pioneer DVD Recorder with TiVo not only records to Now Playing, it can also copy
programs from Now Playing to a recordable DVD. The rest of this tour shows you how. If
you don't want to use a disc for the programs currently in Now Playing, you can still go
through the tour, and just cancel before creating the disc.
Put In a Disc. First, you have to put a disc into the Recorder’s disc tray. You can use either
a “DVD-RW” disc, which can be copied to, erased, and copied to again, or a “DVD-R”
disc, which can only be copied to once. You must use a “DVD” disc. The Recorder will
not copy to some DVD formats (such as those with a “+” sign), so make sure your blank
disc is either DVD-RW or DVD-R. To insert a disc, press the OPEN/CLOSE button
( )on the front of your Recorder, put in the disc with the blank, shiny side down, and
then press OPEN/CLOSE ( ) again.
Select a Program. Go to Now Playing (if you are not there already, press the TiVo button
twice), and highlight a program. Press SELECT to see the Program Information screen,
then select “Copy to DVD.” The next screen asks whether you want to copy just the
program you selected, or additional programs as well. For this tour, select “Copy just this
program.” The following screen suggests a name for the disc, and asks if you want to use
it or enter your own. For this tour, just select “Yes” to use the suggested name.
Make the Copy*. At this point, you see the Confirmation screen, this is your last chance to
cancel the copy, so if you do not want to copy to the disc you have inserted, select “Don’t
copy,” otherwise select “Begin copying to DVD.”
As you can see, there are more options than are covered here, but those are the basics. The
next screen tells you how long it will take to copy your program. When the copying is
done, you have a new DVD with your program on it! For a further details, see page 42.
* Some content may not be copied
