How to use the
HDD & DVD RECORDER
Step 1
Select the disc type or HDD
Step 2
Format the disc to start recording
This unit can record on the following types of discs.
If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc
or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a
rewritable DVD-RW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you
want to save a recording without any changes,
choose a non-rewritable DVD-R. You can record
files directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded
file.
Unlike a VCR, the HDD & DVD RECORDER
automatically starts formatting when an unused
disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation
of recording on a disc.
Using the HDD
Formatting unneccessory.
Using a DVD-RAM
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video
Recording format (VR mode). You can edit
recorded video and create a playlist and edit video
in a specific sequence according to your
requirements.
Using a DVD-RW
This type of disc can be formatted in either
DVD-Video format (V mode) or DVD-Video
Recording format (VR mode). For an unused disc,
a message that asks whether to format in VR Mode
or not is displayed. You can play a Video mode
disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc
allows more varied editing.
Using a DVD-R
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD Video
format. After formatting is complete, you can record
on the disc. You can play these type of discs on
various DVD components only when they have
been finalized.
