Recording Speed
MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture
quality, the "bps" unit is used to represent how much data can
be recorded per second. The larger this value is, the better the
picture quality becomes but more capacity is required for the
recording. Select XP or SP for programs where quick movement
occurs, such as sports programs, and LP or EP for talk shows, etc.
with relatively less movement.
The recording speeds for a 4.7 GB disc are set as follows:
