VCR Recording
z Hints
When the start time and the channel or input source to
be recorded are the same but the “Media” setting
differs, the program is recorded to both the DVD disc
and the VHS tape.
You can also turn on the timer programming menu
from the System Menu. Press SYSTEM MENU to
select “Timer,” and select “Timer-Standard.”
You can use the number buttons and the dot (·) button
to select a channel.
You can select a video source from the LINE 1 IN or
LINE 2 IN jacks, using the INPUT button.
Notes
To record a cable or satellite program, turn on the cable
box or satellite receiver and select the program you
want to record. Leave the cable box or satellite receiver
turned on until the recorder finishes recording.
Even when correctly set, the program may not be
recorded if another recording is underway, or other
prioritized timer setting overlaps.
You cannot record on a tape with its safety tab
removed.
Before the timer recording starts, “TIMER REC”
flashes in the front panel display.
The recorder automatically turns off when a timer
recording finishes, even if the recording started with
the recorder turned on.
Digital closed captions cannot be recorded (page 35).
For audio settings, “Stream 1” is usually recorded
(page 35).
When you set the Digital Rating, a program with a
digital rating beyond your limit setting cannot be
recorded correctly (page 103).

(Synchro Rec)
You can set the recorder to automatically record
programs from connected equipment that has a
timer function (such as a satellite tuner). Connect
