Folder:
If you activated write protection, remove it before processing.
Conventional DVD-Vs are usually equipped with copy protection and cannot be
copied.
CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media)
This unit is compatible with the CPRM copy protection system for recordable media.
When using a CPRM compatible disc, a programme can be recorded. Programmes
broadcast with this copy protection system cannot be recorded to
DVD-R or 2.8 GB DVD-RAM.
HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is copy protection which is
transferred via HDMI connections and partly via DVI (Digital Visual Interface).
The units must be able to decode this copy protection for playback.

Formatting

If using an unformatted disc, you must format it before the first recording.
Formatting prepares the media, such as a recordable DVD-RAM, for recording.
All data is irreversibly erased.

For recording

The recording is saved to free areas on the disc. If there is no more space left on the
disc/HDD, you must delete recordings or use a new disc.
Continuous recording or playback of both sides of a double sided disc is not possible.
After the end of the recording, the unit needs approx. 30 seconds to record data for
recording management.
Under certain circumstances, digital sound signals may not be recorded in their
original format. Digital programmes limited to "one time recording" can only be
+R DL
recorded to 12 cm DVD-RAM.
x4 x2.4
You cannot record on the hard disk and on a DVD at the same time. The internal
hard disk saves up to 284 hours (DMR-EX75) / 443 hours (DMR-EX85) of your
recordings when set to [EP ( 8 Hours )].
HDD
Longer recordings are divided into 8 hour segments.
Remaining recording time on the hard disk
This unit records with a data compression system (VBR - Variable bit rate). The
length of the programmed recording is adjusted variably to the video data being
recorded. This is why the display of the remaining recording time can differ from the
remaining recording length. If there is not enough storage space for a recording,
delete old titles from the hard disk.
Deleting playback lists does not enlarge the storage space.
Recording a 90 minute title to a disc with 4.7 GB of storage space.
