About Hdd Recording - Pioneer DVR-745H-S Operating Instructions Manual

05 Recording
• If power to the recorder is cut (due to a
power outage, the plug being pulled
from the power outlet, etc.) during
recording, editing, initializing, finalizing
or other operation, some recorded
material on the disc, or the disc itself,
may become unusable. In this case, try
re-initializing the disc (DVD-RW only), or
use a new disc. Pioneer is not
responsible for lost recordings,
damaged discs or other losses in these
cases.
• Fingerprints, dirt and small scratches on
a disc can affect playback and/or
recording performance. Please take
proper care of your discs.
• See also Disc / content format playback
compatibility on page 7 for detailed disc
compatibility information.
Recording to DVD-R DL/DVD+R DL
discs
Recording to DVD-R DL/DVD+R DL discs is
generally the same as recording to regular
single-layer discs; however, please note the
following points:
• When the recorder switches from the
first layer to the second during recording
a DVD-R DL (Video mode) disc, a new
title is automatically started on the new
layer.
• Up to 99 titles can be recorded on a DVD-
R DL (Video mode) disc. If the 99th title is
being recorded when the layer is
switched, recording will stop.
• Up to 49 titles can be recorded on a
DVD+R DL disc.
• You cannot play, record additional
material to, edit or finalize a DVD-R DL or
DVD+R DL disc that has been recorded
on but not yet finalized on another DVD
recorder.

About HDD recording

Recording to the internal hard disk drive
(HDD) is very flexible; you have the full
choice of recording quality options,
including manual mode, and of course you
can record, erase and re-record as many
times as you like.
The capacity of the hard disk drive means
that you can store many hours of video on it,
even using the higher quality recording
modes.
Important
• The maximum number of titles/chapters
per title that can be recorded on the
HDD is 999 and 99 respectively. No more
recording is possible on the HDD after
the maximum number of titles has been
reached.
• The maximum continuous recording
time for one title is 12 hours.
• It is possible to record both PAL and
NTSC titles on the HDD. Before
recording, you need to make sure that
the Input Line System setting (page 116)
matches the TV line system of the source
you're recording.
