• Start/End Time : Start and end time of the timer
recording.
• Mode (Recording Mode) :
- FR (Flexible Recording) : Select when you want to
set video quality automatically.
In FR mode, the most suitable record mode is
adjusted automatically, according to remaining
time on the disc and length of the timer recording.
This function will select only one suitable mode
from XP, SP, LP and EP modes.
- XP (high quality) : Select when video quality is
important. (Approx. 1 hour)
- SP (standard quality) : Select to record in standard
quality. (Approx. 2 hours)
- LP (low quality) : Select when a long recording
time is required.(Approx. 4 hours)
- EP (extended) : Select when a longer recording
time is required. (Approx.6 hours or 8 hours)
• V/P : VPS(Video Programme System) or
PDC(Programme Delivery Control) function.
- If you set this function on, you can control the
starting and ending time of recording by special
signal included in the broadcasting signal.
If a TV programme is shortened or starts earlier or
later than scheduled, this function synchronizes
the starting and ending time of recording with the
actual broadcasting time automatically.
- Set up the start-time EXACTLY according to the
published TV schedule. Otherwise the timer
recording will not take place.
- Do not select PDC or VPS unless you are sure
the programme you wish to record is broadcast
with PDC or VPS.
When you are recording at EP mode on a
I
DVD-RW(V)/R disc, it may not record the
NOTE
full 6 or 8 hours because the unit uses the
VBR(Variable Bit Rate) ENCODING
system. For example, if you record a
program with a lot of action, it uses a
higher bit rate which in turn consumes
more disc memory.
