About HDD
HDD is a special device which has high recording
density and is suited for long-time recording or high-
speed cueing but by contrast, has many factors which
can cause breakage. Use HDD on the premise that
you should dub the recorded programmes to a DVD
disc to protect your precious videos.
HDD is a temporary storage location:
HDD is not a permanent storage location of the
recorded contents. Be sure to use it as a temporary
storage location until you watch the programmes
once, edit them, or dub them to a DVD disc.
Be sure to dub (back up) data promptly if you find
abnormalities in HDD:
If there is mechanical trouble with the HDD, grinding
or other sounds may be heard or blocky noise may
appear on the image. If you continue to use as it is,
deterioration may continue and eventually the HDD
may not be used at all. If you notice any symptoms of
a failing HDD, promptly dub the data to a DVD disc.
When an HDD fails, recovery of recorded content
(data) may be impossible.
About the remaining capacity of HDD recording
time:
In recording to HDD, the Remaining Capacity Display
may differ from the actual recordable time as this unit
adopts Variable Bit Rate encoding, which varies the
recording (storage) amount of data in accordance
with the amount of information in the video signal.
Before recording to the HDD, ensure there is
sufficient space on the HDD by deleting unnecessary
titles in advance.
