Types of disc
You can use DVD-RAM, DVD-RW and DVD-R discs to record video.
DVD-RAM/-RW (VR mode)
• This mode involves mutiple editing functions.
• Various editing options using a created Playlist.
DVD-RW (Video mode)/-R
• Simple editing (renaming titles).
For more information on recording format, see “Recording for-
mat” (page 10).
Recording modes
There are 4 modes for recording on disc. Recording time and quality
vary according to mode.
• Recording time above is based on a 4.7GB disc.
Since DVD recording is performed using VBR (Variable Bit Rate), re-
cording time varies according to the recorded content.
To know the correct recording time, stop recording and check the me-
dia information. (See page 35.)
Disc remaining time
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, addi-
tional 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.
This section explains things you must
know to record onto a disc. Read it
before attempting to record.
NOTES:
Recording time can change for the
following reasons.
• When image quality is poor as dur-
ing poor TV reception.
• When recording on a disc that has
been edited before.
• When the video is followed with re-
cordings of still images or just au-
dio.
NOTE:
Should a power failure occur or
should the AC cord plug be discon-
nected while recording, editing, ini-
tializing, finalizing or any other func-
tion, the program being recorded will
be lost or the disc may not be play-
able. Manufacturer can not guaran-
tee against loss of program or disc
should this occur. To start recording
again, re-format the disc or use a
new disc and follow the instruction
on recording.

Images that cannot be recorded
Some DVD-Video and broadcasts contain copy-restriction signals to
protect copyrights. There are 3 types of copy-restriction signals: “Copy
Free”, “Copy Never” and “Copy Once”.
“Copy Free” (unrestricted recording)
Land-based TV broadcasts and images you record yourself with a video
camera allow unrestricted recording. There are no restrictions on re-
cording.
“Copy Never” (recording prohibited)
• Images that contain the recording prohibited signal cannot be re-
corded.
• If the recording prohibited signal appears halfway through an image
you are recording, recording is paused at that instant. When the re-
cording prohibited signal ends, recording resumes.
• This unit incorporates a built-in copy guard. It cannot record soft-
ware or broadcasted programs that contain copy restriction signals
designed to protect copyright, etc.
“Copy Once” (one-time recordable)
Programs (images) that contain the one-time recordable signal can be
recorded only in the VR mode using a DVD-RW disc that supports
CPRM Ver. 1.1 and Ver 1.2.

The Hi-Fi STEREO recording procedure is
the same as for normal recordings.
NOTE:
When using a Cable TV system, stereo TV programs may be transmit-
ted over a mono cable channel. In this case the word “STEREO” will
not appear and the sound will be in mono.
Output selection
When viewing an MTS STEREO TV program, or playing a prerecorded
Hi-Fi STEREO on video tape, press AUDIO SELECT to select how the
audio will be heard through the speakers. Normally set to the Hi-Fi
STEREO position, this button can be set to the MONO position if the
stereo audio is of poor quality. The “R” and “L” positions allow the au-
dio from the Right or Left Hi-Fi channel to be heard over both TV speak-

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
When the content is recorded, a title name that includes the date, time,
channel number and other information is created automatically.
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 opera-
tions i.e., you can rename the titles, or add the chapter marks. In addi-
tion, 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 recom-
mended 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 dis-
played 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:
NOTES:
• This unit cannot 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 before starting the
operation.
• When a scene has been erased,
the selected position for erasing
may vary slightly from the actual
erased position.
