Remedy
• Note that audio and subtitle languages cannot be changed during
the recording of a digital broadcast.
• You can only use the audio track and subtitles for the language that
were selected at the time of recording a digital broadcast. The audio
track and subtitles cannot be changed to other languages.
• Change the recording mode to XP/SP .
• If the disc was recorded in DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R,
make sure that it's finalized (page 72).
• Some players will not play recordable DVD discs, even when
recorded in DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R and finalized.
• If the disc was recorded in VR mode, the other player must be
specifically RW compatible in order to play it (page 7).
• Discs recorded with copy-once material cannot be played on non-
CPRM compatible players (page 62).
• DVD+RW discs containing only a small amount of recorded
material may not play on other players. Finalize the disc and try again.
• DVD-RAM discs can only be played on DVD-RAM compatible
players.
• Time search may be unavailable with certain equipment.
• Check that there is some remaining blank space on the DVD/HDD.
• For a DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R, check that the disc isn't
already finalized.
• Check the limits on the number of titles and chapters on a disc:
– HDD: 999 titles
– VR mode: 99 titles, 999 chapters per disc
– Video mode disc: 99 titles per disc, 99 chapters per title
– DVD+R/+RW: 49 titles per disc, 99 chapters per title (max
254 chapters per disc)
• Check that the source you are trying to record is not copy protected.
• For a VR formatted disc, check that the disc isn't locked (page 128).
• Check that you are recording with the same TV system (PAL, NTSC,
etc.) as the disc has already been recorded in. All recordings on a disc
must be in the same TV system. When recording to the HDD, it is also
necessary to set the Input Line System setting to match what you want
to record (page 148).
• The power may have failed during recording.
