When Frame Accurate setting is Off, exact frame
accuracy is traded for high-speed copying when
recording a Copy List. Switch Frame Accurate On to
preserve the accuracy of the Copy List. However, copying
some edited Video mode titles will be done in real time.
Important
• When you change this setting the Copy List is erased.
Make sure it is set how you want it before you start
putting together a Copy List.
• The Frame Accurate setting has no effect on the
actual video content stored on the HDD.
DVD-RW Auto Init.
• Default setting: VR Mode
When you load a new, blank DVD-RW disc the recorder
automatically initializes it for recording. You can set it to
initialize the disc for VR mode or Video mode recording.

If you have a widescreen TV, select the 16:9 setting—
widescreen DVD software is then shown using the full
screen area. When playing software recorded in
conventional (4:3) format, the settings on your TV will
determine how the material is presented—see the
manual that came with your TV for details on what
options are available.
If you have a conventional TV, choose either 4:3 (Letter
Box) or 4:3 (Pan & Scan). In Letter Box mode,
widescreen software is shown with black bars at the top
and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan chops the sides off
widescreen material to make it fit the 4:3 screen (so even
though the picture looks larger on the screen, you're
actually seeing less of the movie). See Screen sizes and
disc formats on page 102 for more information.

The recorder uses one of two processes when displaying
a still frame from a DVD disc. The default Auto setting
automatically chooses the best setting each time.
• Field – produces a stable, generally shake-free
image.
• Frame – produces a sharper image, but more prone
to shake than field stills.
