case, use the interlaced scanning mode.
• You cannot activate the progressive scan mode
when:
- the unit is in the VCR mode.

time and quality vary according to mode.
Recording Recording time Quality
mode
A further difference between the two disc types is that
only DVD-RW can be initialized for VR mode recording,
which offers much more comprehensive editing
functions compared to Video mode recording.
XP
Approx. 60 min
SP
Approx. 120 min Can record normal
quality images.
The big advantage, however, of Video mode is its
compatibility with standard DVD players, most of which
will not play VR mode DVD-RW discs (see also the notes
below).
LP
Approx. 240 min Quality deteriorates
slightly, but recording
time is longer.
SLP
Approx. 360 min Recording time is
prioritized over quality.
While DVD-R discs can only be recorded using the
Video mode, you can initialize a DVD-RW disc for Video
or VR mode recordings. Once initialized (any previous
content is erased in this operation), all recordings on
that disc will be in the chosen recording mode.
Important
• You cannot play, edit or record on unfinalized DVDR/RW discs recorded in Video mode on other DVD
recorders. (Likewise, unfinalized Video mode discs
recorded on this recorder are not playable on other
players/recorders.)
• This recorder cannot record onto CD-R or CD-RW
discs.
• Pioneer takes no responsibility for recording failure
due to power cuts, 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.
• Recording time above is based on a 4.7GB disc.
Since DVD recording is performed using VBR (Variable
Bit Rate), recording time varies according to the
recorded content.
To know the correct recording time, stop recording and
check the media information. (See page 35.)
Note
• Recording time can change for the following
reasons.
• When image quality is poor as during poor TV
reception.
• When recording on a disc that has been edited
before.
• When the video is followed with recordings of still
images or just audio.
Note
• Some DVD players, such as some Pioneer models,
are compatible with VR mode DVD-RW discs.
Check the operating instructions for your player for
VR mode compatibility information.
• The maximum number of titles that can be
recorded on a DVD-R/RW disc is 99.
• The maximum number of chapters recordable on a
DVD-R/RW disc is 999.

Recording equipment and copyright
VR mode
• Recording is possible as long as there is available
space on the disc. (Finalized discs can be recorded
by cancelling the finalization, see “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)
• Erasing unnecessary title frees up available space
on the disc. (Titles can be erased from finalized
discs by first undoing the finalization. See “UNDO
FINALIZE” on page 28.)
Video mode
• Up until the disc is finalized, recording is possible
as long as there is available space on the disc.
(Once the disc has been finalized, additional
recording and erasing are not possible.)
• The remaining time cannot be increased, nor can
recorded title be overwritten.
• Titles cannot be erased nor can recorded titles be
overwritten.
Restrictions on video recording
• You cannot record copy-protected video using this
recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video
discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copyprotected material is encountered during a
recording, recording will pause automatically and
an error message will be displayed on-screen.
• Video that is `copy-once only' can only be recorded
on a DVD-RW disc in VR mode (see below).
• When recording a TV broadcast or through an
external input, you can display copy control
information on screen. (see Displaying disc
information on-screen on page 35).
You may use this product only to reproduce or copy
materials for which you own the copyright or have
obtained permission to copy from the copyright owner
or for which you otherwise have a legal right to reproduce or copy. Unless you own the copyright or have
obtained permission from the copyright owner or

technology must be authorized by Macrovision

Note
• When using one touch timer recording to record on
a DVD disc, it takes some time from when you
press REC until recording actually starts.
Press REC a little before your preferred starting
point.
• Even if STOP is pressed during recording, recording does not stop instantly. Recording may continue for as long as 5 seconds maximum in the VR
mode or 30 seconds maximum in the Video mode.
• Because of characteristics peculiar to digital video
compression technology, scenes with fast motion
may appear as a matrix of larger blocks.
CPRM
CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble
system regarding the recording of `copy once' broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for
Recordable Media.
This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that
you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you
cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM
recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible
DVD-RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode.
DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players
that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

that you just enter a PlusCode number (which you can
find in your TV listings guide) for the program you want
to record, tell the recorder whether you want to record it
just once or regularly, and then select the DVD or the

Note that for the VCR Plus+ system to work correctly,
the clock must be set to the right time and the guide
channels must be setup (see Checking the channel
setup to use the VCR Plus+ system above).
Press VCR Plus+.

When a MTS STEREO broadcast is received, the word
“STEREO” will appear on the screen and the program
can be viewed or recorded in stereo.
The Hi-Fi STEREO recording procedure is the same as

Note
• When using a CATV system, stereo TV programs
may be transmitted over a mono cable channel. In
this case the word “STEREO” will not appear and
the sound will be in mono.

Editing
Editing the disc
This section explains how to edit the recorded contents
on DVD-RWs. However, the items that you can edit vary
with the recording formats. In VR mode, you can edit
various title menus, whereas in Video mode, you can
edit only a few items.
Title menu
For the disc in VR mode, when the content is recorded,
a title name that includes the date, time, channel
number and other information is created automatically.
For the disc in Video mode, when you record a content
first time on the disc where nothing is recorded, the
recorded content is automatically set to Title 1. Then,
the second recorded content is set to Title 2, and so on.
Therefore, the title is numbered according to the
recording order. The maximum number of titles per disc
is 99. The title menu lists these titles.
The title menu can be used when you playback after
confirming the contents (see page 34), or when you
check the contents recorded on the disc.
Original title
The titles explained above are called original titles; these
will be added with every recording. In VR mode you can
do various editing operations – renaming titles, adding
chapter marks, etc. In addition, you can erase the
unnecessary titles to increase the disc space.
Playlist
You can create a playlist based on the original titles.
You can combine or erase undesired scenes.
If you create a playlist it will become the primary list
used by the disc.
If you create a playlist to customize your viewing
preferences, and choose to delete it, the original titles
will not be affected. It is recommended to create and
edit the playlist to prevent important titles from being
erased accidentally.
If you create a playlist, both the original title and playlist
will be displayed on the title menu.
Editable items
The items that can be edited are different between
original title and playlist. For the disc in Video mode,
only the title name can be edited.
The items can be edited in each are as follows:
Editing items
VR mode
Video mode
Original Playlist
Original
Playback
Adding chapter mark
Combining chapters
Erasing scenes
Erasing titles
Renaming titles
Creating playlist
Combining titles
If you finalize the disc in Video mode, the title list will be
created and you cannot use the title menu.
Note
• This unit can not record or edit a disc which was
recorded or edited using another DVD recorder.
• You cannot edit or record the disc on which disc
protection is set. In such a case, be sure to cancel
the disc protection (see page 28) before starting the
operation.
• When a scene has been erased, the selected
position for erasing may vary slightly from the
actual erased position.
