Your TV can stop recordings automatically and it can
send the signals from one external playback device
to another external recording device. It is also able to
convert digital channels and IEEE 1394 device signals to
analog signals. These converted signals can be recorded
on NetCommand-compatible analog VHS and S-VHS
VCRs connected to the RECORD OUTPUT/VIDEO and
AUDIO outputs on the back of the TV.
You can schedule the recording to take place at a later
time and program the recording duration for a minimum
of 30 minutes and a maximum of six hours (in 30-minute
increments). The default is one hour.
When a digital recording is being made, the TV can direct
the signals to the recording device using the IEEE 1394
cable. In the case of an analog recording, (as to a VCR)
the TV converts the digital signals to analog format and
sends the analog output to the VCR through the RECORD
OUTPUT jacks.
During the recording, you can view a different device or
power off the TV. See Appendix I for more information.
To prevent recording of unwanted material while
recording to a VCR or AiV disc, press PAUSE to
temporarily stop recording. Press PAUSE again to
resume recording.
