In Stop mode, press ANYKEY, select Disc Manager, choose Finalize and confirm. Once finalized, the disc becomes compatible with most DVD players. Note that after finalization, you can no longer record or edit the disc.
Can I record a program while watching another recording?
Yes, thanks to the Simultaneous recording and playback function. For example, you can record a show on the hard disk while playing another already recorded title, even on the same hard disk.
How to schedule a recording in advance?
Press TIMER on the remote to access the scheduled recording menu. Set the date, start/end time, channel, recording mode (XP/SP/LP/EP/FR) and destination media (HDD or DVD). Confirm with OK. The recording starts automatically.
The remote control does not work, what should I do?
Check that the batteries are correctly inserted and not depleted. Point the remote towards the sensor on the front of the device. Ensure no obstacles block the signal. If the problem persists, remove the batteries and reinsert them after 30 seconds.
Can I copy videos from the hard disk to a DVD?

How to clean the device and discs?
For the device, unplug the power cord and use a soft, dry cloth. Never use chemicals (benzene, thinner). For discs, wipe them with a soft cloth in a straight line from the center to the edge. Do not use aerosol cleaners.
What to do if the screen displays 'No Disc' when a disc is inserted?
Check that the disc is inserted with the label facing up. Clean the disc. Ensure the disc type is compatible (not DVD+R, CD-ROM, etc.). If the disc comes from a different region, it may not be playable. Try another known working disc.

General Features

The HDD & DVD RECORDER allows you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R or HDD discs. You can also edit digital images on DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs or HDD.

HDD Recording

You can record up to 127 hours of video (in EP mode) on the internal 80GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD). With both recordable DVD and a high-capacity HDD in the same recorder, you have the flexibility to keep recordings on the HDD for quick access anytime, or record to DVD for archiving or playing on other DVD players.

Copy between HDD and DVD

You can copy recordings from the HDD to recordable DVD, or from DVD to the HDD. Usually you can use the high speed copy feature. You can also choose to copy material at different recording quality from the original. For example, you might want to copy a XP mode (highest quality) recording on the HDD to SP (standard play) quality on a DVD so that you can fit other recordings on the same disc.

Simultaneous Recording and Playback

Playback and recording for both DVDs and the built-in hard disk drive (HDD) are completely independent. For example you can record a broadcast programme to either a recordable DVD or the HDD, while watching another recording you already made on the same DVD or on the HDD.

High quality digital audio and video recording and playback

Record up to 16-hours of video with a double sided 9.4 GB DVD-RAM disc, up to 8-hours of images with a 4.7 GB DVD-RAM/-RW/-R disc, depending on the recording mode.

Selectable Recording Mode

You can set your recorder to one of four different recording speeds, each varying in recording quality and length. EP (6Hr or 8Hr) mode yields the most recording time, LP & SP modes provide less recording time with higher quality recording, XP mode gives you the highest quality recording.

Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording

If FR mode is selected, the video quality is adjusted automatically so that all video for the scheduled time can be recorded onto the free disc space. (See page 88)

Creating a DVD video title using DVD-RW/-R disc

With the HDD & DVD RECORDER, you can create your own DVD Video titles on 4.7 GB DVD-RW/-R discs.

Copying data from a digital camcorder using a DV input jack

Record DV Device video onto HDD and DVD-RAM/-RW/-R discs using the DV input jack (IEEE 1394-4pin/4pin). (See page 82)

High quality progressive scan

Progressive scanning provides high resolution and flicker free video. The 10-bit 54-MHz DAC and 2D Y/C Separating Circuitry provides the highest image playback and recording quality. (See pages 41\~43)

A variety of functions with an easy-to-use user interface

The integrated menu system and the messaging function allow you to perform desired operations both easily and conveniently. With a HDD, DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc, you can edit recorded video, create a playlist, edit video in a specific sequence according to your requirements.

MPEG4 playback

This HDD & DVD RECORDER can play MPEG4 formats within an avi file.

How to use the HDD & DVD RECORDER

Step 1 Select the disc type or HDD

This unit can record on the following types of discs. If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable DVD-RW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you want to save a recording without any changes, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R. You can record files directly to the built-in HDD or edit a recorded file.

Step 2 Format the disc to start recording

Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.

Using a HDD

Formatting unnecessary.

Using a DVD-RAM

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded image and create a playlist and edit images in a specific sequence according to your requirements.

Using a DVD-RW

This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (V mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Using a DVD-R

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD Video format. After formatting is complete, you can record on the disc. You can play this type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - Using a DVD-R - 1

NOTE

■ You can only use either the VR or Video mode on a DVD-RW, but not both at the same time.
- You can change the DVD-RW format to another format by reinitializing. It should be noted that the disc's data will be lost when changing formats.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - Using a DVD-R - 2

Step 3 Recording

There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified.

Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP (extended mode) according to the recording mode. When recording is set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining time on the disc.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - Step 3 Recording - 1

Step 4 Playing

You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu and then immediately start playback.

A DVD consists of sections, called titles, and sub sections, called chapters.

During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording.

Chapters will be created automatically when you finalise recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in Video mode.

The chapter's length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - Step 4 Playing - 1

Step 5 Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The recorder supports many different edit functions, possible only with DVDs and HDD.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.

Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode, HDD)

With this recorder, you can create a new playlist on the same disc and edit it without the change of the original recording.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode, HDD) - 1

Step 6 Finishing & Playing on other DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD components, finalising may be necessary. First, finish all editing and recording operations, then finalise the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalising is generally unnecessary when playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a finalised disc should be used for playback on that type of component.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on anything other than this recorder. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised.

To enable recording on the disc again, disc should be unfinalised.

When using a DVD-R disc

You should finalise the disc to play it on a component other than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on the disc once it has been finalised.

NOTE

■ Recording time may vary according to specific conditions.

Unrecordable pictures

Video with copy protection cannot be recorded on this HDD & DVD RECORDER.

When the HDD & DVD RECORDER receives a copy guard signal while recording, recording stops and the following message appears on the screen.

You cannot record copy protected movie.

Concerning Copy Control Signals

TV broadcasts that contain copy control signals may have one of the following three signal types, Copy-Free, Copy-Once and Copy-Never. If you want to record a copy-once type programme, use DVD-RW with CPRM in VR Mode and DVD-RAM.

Media\Signal typeCopy-FreeCopy-OnceCopy-Never
DVD-RW(Ver.1.1)O--
DVD-RW(Ver.1.1) with CPRM
VR modeO O^* -
V modeO-
DVD-RO-
DVD-RAM(Ver.2.0)O O^* -

Once “Copy Once” has been recorded, recording cannot be done anymore.

- Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)

CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on which it is recorded. It is supported by some HDD & DVD RECORDERs, but not by many DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media ID etched in the BCA. When protected content is recorded onto the disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria) cipher derived from the media ID.

During playback, the ID is read from the BCA and used to generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc. If the contents of the disc are copied to other media, the ID will be absent or wrong and the data will not be decryptable.

SAMSUNG DVD-HR720P - - Mode (Recording Mode) : - 1

NOTE

- When you are recording at EP mode on a DVD-RW(V mode)/-R disc, it may not record the full 6 or 8 hours because the unit uses the VBR(Variable Bit Rate) ENCODING system. For example, if you record a programme with a lot of action, it uses a higher bit rate which in turn consumes more disc memory.

• VPS/PDC : VPS(Video Programme System) or PDC(Programme Delivery Control) function.

  • If you set this function on, you can control the starting and ending time of recording by special signal included in the broadcasting signal. If a TV programme is shortened or starts earlier or later than scheduled, this function synchronizes the starting and ending time of recording with the actual broadcasting time automatically.
  • Set up the start-time EXACTLY according to the published TV schedule. Otherwise the timer recording will not operate.
  • Do not select PDC or VPS unless you are sure the programme you wish to record is broadcast with PDC or VPS.

- TITLE : To label the title name, select the title and then press the OK button. Title renaming screen appears. See page 96 for the registration.

- Title List

A title is a section of recorded video and audio. Title List shows a list to help you select a title. Since the title consists of the information on stream that is actually recorded, if one title is deleted, that title cannot be played again.

- Play List

This refers to a unit of playback, which is made by selecting a desired scene in the entire Title List. When one playlist is played, only the scene selected by the user will play and then stop. Since only the information necessary for playing a desired scene is included in a playlist, even if that playlist is deleted, the original stream will not be deleted.

Recording or editing might not be completed if an error, such as a sudden power failure occurs. Please be aware that a material that has been damaged is unable to be retrieved to its original content.
