What is 'PDC'?
'PDC' (Programme Delivery Control) is used to
control the start and duration of TV channel
recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or
ends later than scheduled, the TV-Video Combi
will turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'PDC'?
Usually the PDC time is the same as the start
time. But if your TV guide shows a PDC time
which is different from the programme's sched-
uled start time, e.g. 20.10 (PDC 20.14), you
must enter the PDC time exact to the minute. If
you want a start time different from the PDC
time, you must switch PDC off.
