Back up important recordings stored on the HDD to
a DVD.

play in another player.

is not available. (from HDD to DVD)

Fast copying (Maximum 12x)
Copying between DVD and HDD is a completely
digital process and therefore involves no loss of
quality in the audio or video. This means that you can
transfer back and forth without having to worry about
the quality getting worse with each copy ‘generation’.
It also means that copying can be carried out at the
maximum speed possible.
When copying from HDD to DVD, the speed of
copying depends on the recording mode and the kind
of DVD disc you’re using.

copying time for 2 hours of video recorded with SP
