About the internal hard disk drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of equipment. Please use the recorder following the guidelines below to protect against possible HDD failure.
We recommend that you back up your important recordings onto DVD discs in order to protect against accidental loss.
- Do not move the recorder while it is on.
• Install and use the recorder on a stable, level surface. - Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
- Do not use the recorder in excessively hot or humid places, or in places that may be subject to sudden changes in temperature. Sudden changes in temperature can cause condensation to form inside the recorder. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
- While the recorder is switched on, do not unplug from the wall socket or switch the electricity off from the breaker switch.
-
Do not move the recorder immediately after switching it off. If you need to move the recorder, please follow the steps below:
-
After the message POWER OFF is shown in the display, wait at least two minutes.
- Unplug from the wall socket.
- Move the recorder.
- If there's a power failure while the recorder is on there is a chance that some data on the HDD will be lost.
- The HDD is very delicate. If used improperly or in an unsuitable environment, it is possible that the HDD will fail after a few years of use. Signs of problems include playback unexpectedly freezing and noticeable block noise (mosaic) in the picture. However, sometimes there will be no warning signs of HDD failure.
If the HDD fails, no playback of recorded material will be possible. In this case it will be necessary to replace the HDD unit.

About DVD recording
Notes:
- This recorder cannot make recordings on CD-R or CD-RW discs.
- Our company takes no responsibility for recording failure due to power outages, defective discs, or damage to the Recorder.
- Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can affect playback and/or recording performance. Please take proper care of your discs.
Disc types and recording formats, modes, and settings
This recorder can play five different kinds of DVD discs: pre-recorded DVD-Video discs, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD+R discs. The disc format for DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD+RW discs is always "Video format"—the same as pre-recorded DVD-Video discs. This means that once finalized, you can play a DVD-R, DVD+R, or DVD+RW in a regular DVD player. By default, the DVD-RW disc format is Video format, though you can change this to Video Recording (VR) format, if required. (Reinitializing the disc will erase the contents of the disc.)
The recording mode is closely related to the disc format. If the disc format is Video Recording format, then the recording mode is VR mode; if the disc format is Video mode, then the recording mode is Video mode (except for DVD-Video, which is not recordable, and so does not have a recording mode). Within the recording modes (which are fixed for them whole disc) are the record settings. These can be changed as required for each recording and determine the picture quality and how much space the recording will take up on the disc.
About HDD recording
Recording to the internal hard disk drive (HDD) is basically similar to recording to a VR mode DVD-RW disc. You have the full choice of recording quality options, including the manual mode, and of course you can record, erase and re-record as many times as you like. The capacity of the hard disk drive means that you can store many hours of video on it, even in the higher quality recording modes. To help you organize the contents, the HDD is divided into ten genre. You can name and use these genres as you like—for example, you might have a genre for movies, another for TV shows, and one for camcorder recordings.
Note:
- The maximum number of titles that can be recorded on the HDD is 255.
- Using the HDD allows you to record a maximum of 12 hours continuously.
Notes for recording
- The recording times shown are not exact because the 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.
- 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 exactly the length of the disc.
- The recording time available may decrease if you heavily edit a disc.
- If using a DVD-RW disc, make sure you change the recording format (Video mode or VR mode) before you record anything on the disc. See page 20 (Disc Format) for how to do this.
- When using a DVD-R or DVD+R disc, you can keep recording until the disc is full, or until you finalize the disc. Before you start a recording session, check the amount of recording time left on the disc.
- When using a DVD-RW disc in Video mode, recording time available will only increase if you erase the last title recorded on the disc.
- The Delete Title option in the Title List (Original) menu only hides the title, it does not actually erase the title from the disc and increase the recording time available (except for the last recorded title on a DVD-RW disc in Video mode).
• Overwrite recording is available using DVD+RW discs.
- When using a DVD+R/RW, the recorder will execute the Menu-making operation to update the new title and editing when removing the disc from the recorder or turn off the recorder. So you must remove the disc after selecting the recorder's operation mode to DVD mode.
Recording time and picture quality
There are four preset recording quality modes:
- XP – Highest quality setting, gives about 1 hour of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).
- SP – Default quality, sufficient for most applications, gives about 2 hours of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).
- LP – Slightly lower video quality, gives about 4 hour of recording time on a DVD disc (4.7GB).
- EP – Lowest video quality, gives about 6 hour of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB). You may see a fragmented picture during playing back the contents recorded in EP mode.

Editing
Title List and Chapter List Menu Overview
Using the Title List menu you can edit video content. The editing features available in the Title List menu depend on whether you are editing video on DVD, or the HDD, and whether you're editing Original content, or a Playlist.
There are two ways to edit VR mode DVD-RW discs. You can directly edit the Original content of the disc, or you can create and edit a Playlist. The Playlist doesn't actually change any of the content on the disc, but just controls how the content is played back.
Editing material recorded on the HDD is similar to editing the Original content of a VR mode DVD-RW, with similar commands for erasing and naming titles, as well as fine control over the content of chapters within titles for DVD disc.
Note:
During recording, if you display the Title List menu for the HDD, some of the titles may appear with a mark. These titles were recorded with a Line Input setting different to the current setting of the recorder. During recording, these titles cannot be played.
-
Press MENU/LIST to display the Title List menu. Playback should be stopped when you do this.
-
You can also access it using HOME menu, select [MOVIE] option then select [HDD] or [DVD] option and press ENTER.
- When selecting titles, use the ▲ / ▼ buttons to display the previous/next page if there are more than six titles.
- If you are editing a VR mode disc, press MENU/LIST to switch between Original and Playlist menu.
On the left side of the screen are the menu options. The main part of the screen shows thumbnails of the titles (or chapter) on the DVD or HDD. You can change these thumbnails using the THUMBNAIL button—see Changing Title Thumbnails on page 42.
Press DISPLAY to display the information of selected title on the Title List menu.
After selecting a title or chapter on the Title List or Chapter List menu, then press ENTER. The menu options appears on the left side of the menu. Use ▲ / ▼ to select a option then press ENTER to confirm your selection.

HDD, VR Mode: Original and Playlist Editing
Titles, Chapters and Parts
Titles in the disc's original content contain one or more chapters. When you insert a disc's title into the Playlist, all the chapters within that title also appear. In other words, chapters in the Playlist behave exactly as chapters on a DVD-Video disc do. Parts are sections of Original or Playlist titles. From the Original and Playlist menu you can add or delete parts. Adding a chapter or title to the Playlist creates a new title made up of a section (ie., chapter) of an Original title. Deleting a part removes part of a title from the Original or Playlist menu.
Caution
- When editing using the Delete, Add and Move functions, the start and end frames may not be exactly as set in the start and end point display.
- During Playlist playback, you may notice a momentary pause between edits. This is not a malfunction.
Is editing a DVD like editing a video tape?
No. When you edit a video tape you need one video deck to play the original tape and another to record the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a 'Playlist' of what to play and when to play it. On playback, the Recorder plays the disc according to the Playlist.
About word 'Original' and 'Playlist' -RWVR
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words Original and Playlist to refer to the actual content and the edited version.
- Original: content refers to what's actually recorded on the disc.
- Playlist: content refers to the edited version of the disc — how the Original content is to be played.
Adding Chapter Markers


You can create chapters within a title by inserting chapter marks at the desired points.
Note:
Chapter markers are inserted at regular intervals automatically. You can change this interval from the Initial Setup menu (see "Auto Chapter" on page 20).
During recording or playing back, at the point you want to start a new chapter, press CHP ADD. A chapter marker icon appears on the TV screen.
Changing Title Thumbnails


Each title displayed in the Title List menu is represented by a thumbnail picture taken from the start of that title or chapter.
If you prefer, select a different still picture from within a title.
Press THUMBNAIL to make the currently displayed picture the one that appears in the Title List menu. The still picture that you choose appears in both the Original or Playlist menu.
Tip:
You can also change the thumbnail picture of the title on the Chapter List menu. Select a chapter on the Chapter List menu then press THUMBNAIL. The thumbnail picture of the title that includes the chapter is changed.
Making a New Playlist
-RWvr
Use this function to add an Original title or chapter to the Playlist. When you do this, the whole title is put into the Playlist (you can delete bits you don't need later — see Deleting an Original or Playlist title/chapter on page 44).
The title appears in the Playlist complete with the chapter markers that appear in the Original. However, if you add more chapter markers to the Original later, these are not automatically copied over into the Playlist title.
You can add up to 999 chapters to one disc. If you only want to add a chapter of a title, use the Adding a title/chapter to the Playlist on this page.
- Choose a title or chapter on the Title List-Original menu or Chapter List-Original menu to put into the Playlist, then press ENTER. The menu options appears on the left side of the menu.
