•This recorder cannot record on CD=RW or

CD=R discs.

•DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs recorded on a

personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder

may not be played back if the disc is damaged or

dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the

player's lens.

If you record on a disc using a personal computer,

there are cases in which it may not be played back

because of the settings of the application software

used to create the disc_ even if it is recorded in a

compatible format. (Check with the software pub-

lisher for more detailed information.)

• Discs recorded inVideo mode on this unit cannot

record addirJonally using other DVD recorders.

A DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit cannot be

used on other DVD recorders.

Since the recording is made by the variable bit rare

(VBR) method, the actual remaining time for record-

ing may be a[iude bit shorter than the remaining

time displayed on the OSD, depending on the pic-

ture you are recording.

Restrictions on recording

You cannot record copy-protected discs or tapes

using this unit. Copy-protected material includes

DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts.

If copy-protected material is encountered during a

ically and an error message wiii be displayed

onscreen.

JVlateriaJ that is "copy-once only" can only be

recorded using a DVD-RW disc inVR mode with

CPRM (see below).

When recording aTV broadcast or through an

external input, you can display copy control informa-

tion on screen.

What is "CPRH"?

This is a format used to record copy-once pro-

grams. By recording coded dam on the area of

DVD discs that ordinary writing software can-

not write, it prevents copy-once programs from

being recorded repeatedly on different media.

This unit is CPRH compatible, which means

that you can record copy-once broadcast pro-

grams, but then you cannot make a copy of

those recordings. CPRiVi recordings can only be

made on DVD-RW discs formatted inVR

mode, and CPRH recordings can only be played

back on DVD players that are compatible with

CPRH.

Making discs playable on other DVD

Analog audio

An electrical signalthat directly represents

sound. In contrast, digital audio which can

be an electrical signal,but is an indirect rep-

resentation of sound. Seealso Digital audio.

Aspect ratio

The width of a TV screen relative to its

height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other

words, the screen is almost square);

widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen is

almost twice aswide as it is high).

Chapter

Just as a book is split up into several

chapters, a title on a DVD disc is usually

divided into chapters. See also Title.

Component video output

This is a video signal format that conveys

each of three principal colors of light

(red, blue and green) through diffet'ent

signal lines.This allows the viewers to

experience picture colors as original as it

is.There are several signal formats,

includingY/PB/PR and Y/CB/CR.

C PRH ,(Cpntent, Protection for

ecor_anle Ivlle_la)

This is a format used to record copy-

once programs. By recording coded data

on the area of DVD discs that ordinary

writing software cannot write on, it pre-

vents copy-once programs from being

recorded repeatedly on different media.

Digital audio

An indirect representation of sound

by numbers. During recording, the

sound is measured at discrete inter-

vals (44, 100 times a second for CD

audio) by an analog-to-digital convert-

el; generating a stream of numbers.

On playback, a digital-to-analog con-

verier generates an analog signal

based on these numbers. See also

Sampling frequency and Analog audio.

Dolby Digital

The system developed by Dolby

Laboratories to compress digital sound.

It offers you sound of stereo(Zch) or

multi-channel audio (up to 5.1ch).

Finalize

To make recorded contents on DVD

discs possible to be played back on

DVD players.With this unit, it is possi-

ble to finalize DVD-RW/DVD-R discs.

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)

MP3 is a method of compressing files,

You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/R

discs from the computer and play back

the files on this unit.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)

PCM is a format that converts audio

into digital data. It is mainly used for

Audio CDs and nAT.This unit can

_lay back sounds as realistic as possi-

le by converting even compressed

Dolby Digital and MPEG audio to

PCM.

Playlist

From this list you can play back con-

tents of a disc in your desired order

or sequence.Also it allows to search

a specific scene directly.

Regions code

Regions associate discs andplayers with

particular areas of the world.This unit

will only play back discs that have com-

patible region codes.You can find the

region code of your unit by looking at

the rear panel. Some discs are compati-

ble with more than one region (or all

regions),

Sampling frequency

The rate which sound is measured by

a specified interval to turn it into digi-

tal audio data.The numbers of sam-

piing in one second defines as sam-

pling frequency.The higher the rate,

the better the sound quality is.

SAP (Secondary Audio Program)

Sub-audio channel which is delivered

separately from main-audio channel.This

audio channel is used as an alternate in

bilingual broadcasting.

S-Video output

It delivers independently each signal of

color(C) and luminance(Y) toTV as

video signals, so that higher-quality pic-

ture will be materialized.

Title (DVD only)

A collection of chapters on DVD disc.
