Timer Recording - LG DR197 Owner's Manual

Timer Recording

This recorder can be programmed to record up to 16
programs within a period of 1 month. For unattended
recording, the timer needs to know the channels to be
recorded, the starting and ending time.
Note:
If you use a completely blank disc for timer recording,
you must format the disc before starting timer
recording. (Refer to "Initialize" on page 21.)

ENTER.
The [Timer Record] menu will appear.

Sun~Sat).
[Start Time] Set the start time.
[End Time] Set the end time.
[Mode] Choose a record mode (XP, SP, LP, EP,
or AT).
AT (Auto) mode determines how much disc time
is available and switches record mode, if
necessary, to complete recording the program.
Note:
When you set the VPS/PDC option to On, AT
mode is not available.
[VPS/PDC] The VPS/PDC system automatically
adjusts the recording time so that even if a
program is not running to schedule, you won't
miss it. For VPS/PDC to work properly, you
must input the correct announced time and date
of the program you want to record.
Note that VPS/PDC may not work with every
station.
Notes:
Stations that use VPS/PDC typically include
VPS/PDC information in the teletext TV guide
pages. Please refer to these pages when
setting a timer recording.

instances where the beginning of the program
is not recorded.
