Notes on Recording
• The recording times shown are not exact
because the HDD/DVD Recorder uses variable
bit-rate video compression. This means that the
exact recording time will depend on the
material being recorded.
• When recording a TV broadcast, if the
reception is poor or the picture contains
interference, the recording times may be
shorter.
• Discs recorded at high speeds (equal to or
greater than 2X) may not be recognized.
• If you record still pictures or audio only, the
recording time may be longer.
• The displayed times for recording and time
remaining may not always add up to the exact
length of the disc.
• The available recording time may decrease if
you heavily edit a disc.
• When using a DVD+R disc, you can keep
recording until the disc is full, or until you
finalise the disc. Before you start a recording
session, check the amount of recording time
left on the disc.
Recording TV Audio Channels
The HDD/DVD Recorder can record one or two
channel audio. For TV broadcasts, this usually
means mono or stereo, but some programs are
broadcast in bilingual audio channel. You can record
either BIL I, BIL II or both.
Restrictions on Video Recording
• You cannot record copy-protected video using
this HDD/DVD Recorder. Copy-protected video
includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite
broadcasts. If copy-protected material is
encountered during a recording, recording will
pause or stop automatically and an error
message will be displayed on-screen.
• Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be
recorded using DVD+RW discs with CPRM.
Copyright Notice
• Audio and video recordings you make using the
HDD/DVD Recorder are for your personal use
