During playback or when a menu is being
displayed on-screen, the sound and video is
always routed to your TV and is unaffected by
the
TV/DVD
mode setting.
Note that the recorder must be connected to
your TV using a SCART cable to be able to
use this feature.
• Switch between TV mode and
DVD mode.
Setting the picture quality/
recording time
Before starting a recording, you will usually
want to set the picture quality/recording
time. There are six standard settings
available, which allow you to choose a
balance between picture quality and
recording time.
When Manual Recording is set to On (see
Manual Recording
on page 123), a further
option will be available (
MN1
to
MN32
or
LPCM
, depending on what you set).
When recording to DVD+R/+RW,
SLP
is the
longest recording time available. If you
select
SEP
or
MN1
to
MN3
, the recording
mode will automatically revert to
SLP
.
