Recording stereo and bilingual
programmes
The recorder automatically receives and
records stereo and bilingual programmes
based on the ZWEITON system or the
NICAM system.
The HDD (when "HDD Recording Format"
is set to "Video Mode Off" in the
"Recording" setup (page 120)) and a DVD-
RW (VR mode) or DVD-R (VR mode) can
record both main and sub sounds. You can
switch between main and sub when playing
the disc.
The HDD (when "HDD Recording Format"
is set to "Video Mode On" in the "Recording"
setup (page 120)) and a DVD+RW, DVD+R,
DVD-RW (Video mode), or DVD-R (Video
mode) can record only one sound track (main
or sub) at a time. Select the sound track in the
"Audio In" setup before recording starts. Set
"Bilingual Recording" to "A/L" (default) or
"B/R" in the "Audio In" setup (page 115).
