Recording Options Menu

Your DVD recorder has several practical functions to optimise the recording quality / recording
time ratio that is possible when using a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc.This menu also allows the
VPS/PDC function to be activated for all your programmed recordings.

Recording quality

Your DVD recorder can record several hours of TV programmes or video sequences from a
connected device.This capacity depends on the discs and the quality adjustment selected in the
Recording Options menu.

SmartRecord™

By activating the SmartRecord™ function of your DVD recorder it will adapt the quality of
your programmed recordings to one of the 6 settings so that you can record the entire desired
programme on a disc that has already been partially recorded.

Chapter Markers

When recording a title, your recorder organises the chapters by creating chapters of 5 minutes in
length.This then allows you to explore your recordings by jumping from chapter to chapter using
the
key.You may select chapter lengths of 10 minutes if you wish, by positioning the
Pr+ / Pr-
function to 10 minutes.You may also decide not to create chapters by selecting
de-activated).

VPS/PDC

Triggers all your programming at the actual broadcast times (if the channel broadcasts VPS/PDC
signals).
Note: the VPS (Video Programming System) and PDC (Program Delivery Control) signals are transmitted at
the same time as certain programmes, by certain channels and in certain European countries. Leave this
function active to benefit from its benefits for all your programming. If the channel does not broadcast VPS or
PDC signasl, your DVD recorder will record at the start and stop times selected during the programming of
the recording (page 30).
