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 recorder automatically starts
formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is
required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
Using a 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 image and create a playlist and edit
images 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 this type of discs on
various DVD components only when they have
been finalised.
