Step 3
Recording
There are two different recording methods, Direct
Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is
classified as a Date : Once(mm/dd), MON-FRI,
Every SAT, etc. as a record mode : XP (high quality
mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long
recording mode), and EP (extended mode)
according to the record mode. When recording is
set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is
recorded with regards to the remaining time on the
disc.
Step 4
Playing
You can select the title you want to play in a
displayed menu and then immediately start
playback.
A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub
sections called chapters.
During recording, a title is created between two
points where you start and stop recording. Chapters
will be created automatically when you finalize
recording on DVD-R / DVD-RW discs in Video
mode. The chapter's length (interval between
chapters) varies according to the record mode.
Step 5
Editing a recorded disc
Editing on discs is easier than editing on conventional
video tapes. The recorder supports many different edit
functions, possible only with DVDs.
With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate
various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename,
lock, etc., on a recorded title.
Creating a playlist (DVD-RW in VR mode)
With this recorder, you can create a new playlist on
the same disc and edit it without changing the original
recording.

Finalizing & Playing on
Step 6
other DVD components
To play your DVD on other DVD components,
finalizing may be necessary. First, finish all editing and
recording operations, then finalize the disc.
When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode
Although finalizing is generally unnecessary when
playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible
component, a finalized disc should be used for
playback.
When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalized first to enable playback
on anything other than this recorder. No more editing
or recording can be made on the disc once it has
been finalized.
When using a DVD-R disc
You should finalize the disc to play it on a component
other than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on
the disc once it has been finalized.
