Frequently Asked Questions - DR787T LG
How do I set up the LG DR787T for the first time?
Connect the recorder to your TV via composite or S-Video cables. Attach the antenna cable to the RF input. Plug in the power and turn on. The setup wizard will guide you through language, time, and channel settings.
How do I record a TV program?
Insert a recordable DVD. Press the REC button to start immediate recording. To set a timer, press Timer and enter the date/time/channel or use G-Code.
Why won't my DVD play?
Ensure the disc is not scratched or dirty. Check that the disc format is supported (e.g., DVD+R/RW, CD). The recorder might need the region code set correctly.
How do I finalize a DVD so it plays on other players?
After recording, press Menu, go to Disc Setup, then select Finalize. This closes the disc for standard DVD playback.
Can I copy content from a VCR or camcorder to DVD?
Yes. Connect the source device to the recorder's input (e.g., composite). Insert a DVD, press Input to select the source, then press REC to record.
What should I do if the remote control stops working?
Replace the batteries with fresh ones (2x AAA). Ensure nothing is blocking the IR sensor. Point the remote directly at the front of the recorder.
How do I set up timer recording using G-Code?
Enter the G-Code number from a TV guide using the remote's number keys. The recorder automatically sets the date, time, and channel.
Why is the recording quality poor?
Check the recording mode: XP gives the best quality, EP extends time but reduces quality. Also, a dirty lens or weak signal can affect recording. Try cleaning the disc and lens.
How do I update the firmware?
Firmware updates are rare for this model. Check LG's support website. If available, download to a CD-R and follow the update procedure in the manual.
What are the dimensions and weight of the recorder?
The approximate dimensions are 430 mm (width) x 48 mm (height) x 280 mm (depth), and weight is about 3.2 kg.
