Easy Timer Recording - Pioneer DVR-520H Operating Instructions Manual

06 Recording
• Timer recordings have higher priority than the Auto
Start Recording function (see Automatic recording
from a satellite tuner on page 54). A timer recording
will interrupt an Auto Start Recording. (Auto Start
Recording will resume after the timer recording has
finished.)
• Approximately two minutes before a timer recording
is set to start, the recorder will go into timer recording
standby. In timer recording standby you cannot use
some functions.
• The maximum length for timer recordings made to
the HDD is 24 hours. However, because one title is
limited to six hours, recordings over six hours will be
spread over two or more titles. Note that there will be
a break in the recording of a few seconds between
titles.

Easy Timer Recording

As the name suggests, Easy Timer Recording makes
setting up a timer recording as simple as possible.
