Frequently Asked Questions - DVD-R123 SAMSUNG

What types of discs can I record on the Samsung DVD-R123?
You can record on DVD-RAM, DVD-RW (both VR and Video mode), and DVD-R discs. DVD-RAM and DVD-RW are rewritable, while DVD-R is write-once. Always use discs that are compatible with this recorder; refer to the manual for recommended brands.
How do I set up the timer recording?
Press the TIMER button on the remote (or use the MENU). Set the date, start time, end time, channel, and recording mode (XP/SP/LP/EP/FR). You can also use the ShowView feature (page 50) for automatic programming. Confirm with OK.
Why won't my disc play?
Ensure the disc is inserted label side up. Check the regional code; this unit plays region 2 discs. Some discs (e.g., CD-ROM, DVD-ROM) are not supported. If the disc is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth. If it's a recorded DVD-R/-RW, it must be finalised to play on other players.
How do I finalise a disc?
Finalising closes the disc so it can be played on other DVD players. Go to Disc Manager in the setup menu, select Disc Finalize, and confirm. Once finalised, you cannot record or edit on that disc (except DVD-RW VR mode can be unfinalised).
Can I record copy-protected content?
No. The recorder cannot record copy-protected video signals. If a copy guard is detected, recording stops and a message appears. For Copy-Once broadcasts, you can record only on DVD-RAM or DVD-RW (VR mode with CPRM).
What is the difference between XP, SP, LP, and EP recording modes?
XP (highest quality, approx. 1 hr on 4.7 GB), SP (standard, ~2 hr), LP (long play, ~4 hr), and EP (extended, ~6 or 8 hr). Higher quality uses more disc space. You can set EP time to 6 or 8 hours in the system settings.
How do I connect the DVD recorder to my TV?
Use a SCART cable from AV1 (TV) to the TV's SCART input. Alternatively, use Composite (yellow), S-Video, or Component (Y, Pb, Pr) cables. For audio, connect the red/white audio cables. Ensure the TV input is set to the correct source.
Can I play MP3 or JPEG files?
Yes. The unit plays MP3 and JPEG files burned on CD-R/RW discs. MP3 files must have .mp3 extension, be ISO9660/Joliet format, and bitrate between 56-320 kbps. JPEG files up to 3M pixels. A maximum of 1000 files and 100 folders are supported.
What should I do if the remote control doesn't work?
Check the batteries (replace if needed) and ensure they are inserted with correct polarity. Point the remote directly at the sensor (no obstacles). Press the TV/DVD button to select DVD mode. If the problem persists, try resetting by removing batteries for a minute.
How do I clean and maintain the recorder?
Unplug the power cord. Wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth. Never use benzene, thinner, or solvents. For discs, wipe gently from the center outward with a soft cloth. Avoid touching the recording surface. For the lens, use a dedicated DVD lens cleaner disc if needed.

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.

How to use the DVD Recorder

Step 1 Select the disc type

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 recording without any change, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.

SAMSUNG DVD-R123 - Step 1 Select the disc type - 4

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 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 (Video 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-R123 - 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.

Step 3 Recording

There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified as a Date : Once(dd/mm(MON)), Every Day, MON-SAT, MON-FRI, Every SAT, etc. 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-R123 - 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-R / DVD-RW discs in Video mode. The chapter's length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

SAMSUNG DVD-R123 - 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.

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)

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-R123 - Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode) - 1

Step 6 Finalising & 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.

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.

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.

■ Unfinalise

  • This allows additional recording on a DVD-RW disc originally recorded on the DVD Recorder.
  • A DVD-RW disc that has been recorded by DAO(Disc At Once) in a PC cannot be unfinalised.
  • A DVD-RW disc that has been recorded in Video Mode of a different maker's recorder cannot be unfinalised.
  • A DVD-R disc cannot be unfinalised.

In general, picture quality improves as the recording time decreases. In FR mode, the most suitable record mode is adjusted automatically, according to remaining time on the disc and length of the timer recording. This function is selected only one mode in XP, SP, LP and EP modes and you can use this mode for timer recording.

Unrecordable video

Video with copy protection cannot be recorded on this DVD Recorder.

When the 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-Free Copy-Once Copy-Never
DVD-RW(Ver.1.1)O--
DVD-RW(Ver.1.1) with CPRM
VR modeO O^* -
Video 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 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.

•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 list 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.
