|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 a

recording without making any changes, choose a non-

rewritable DVD±R.

RA._A RW R DVL_+HeWrJt able DVD+R

|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

images and create a playlist in a specific sequence

according to your requirements,

Using aDVD+RW/+R

• When an unused DVD±RW/+R disc is first inserted, the

message "Uninitialized Disc. Do you want to initialize this

disc?" will be displayed.

If you select Yes, initializing will be begin. DVD-RW discs

can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (Video

mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode)

• There are no differences between DVD-Video format

(Video mode) and DVD-Video Recording format (VR

mode) with DVD+R discs.

Using aDVD-R

When using aDVD-R disc, only V mode recording is

possible and no initialization is needed to play it on this

recorder. However, finalization is necessary to play this

disc on other DVD players.

a You can only use either the VR or Video mode on

a DVD-RW, but not both at the same time.

m You can format aDVD-RW to V or VR mode using

disc manager.

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

determined as a date and recording can be done once,

daily or weekly. There are 4 recording modes : XP (high

quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (tong

recording mode), and EP (extended mode).

IStep 4: Playing

To start playback, select the title you want to play from the

title list.

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 finalize recording on

DVD-R/DVD-RW discs in Video mode.

You can make your own chapters on DVD+RWs and edit

them using the Chapter Edit menu.

The chapter's length (interval between chapters) varies

according to the recording mode.

|Step 5 : Editing arecorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventiona! 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/edit a new playlist on

the same disc without changing the original recording.

I Step 6 : Finalizing &Playing on other

DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD players, finalizing may

be necessary. First, finish att editing and recording

operations, then finalize the disc.

When using e DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalizing is generally unnecessary when playing

the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a finalized

disc should be used for playback.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be finalized 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

finalized.

When using aDVD_+R disc

You should finalize the disc to play it on other DVD

players. No more editing or recording can be made on the

disc once it has been finalized.

HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data

and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

- Even though the DVD Recorder & VCR records

anatog audio and video, with HDMI the analog

signa! is converted to digita! signa! and is sent to

the TV.

- if your TV does not support HDCP (High-

bandwidth Digital Content Protection), snow

noise appears on the screen.

m Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio

signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data

transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a

digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Recorder

& VCR) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the

TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture

quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss.

HDMI technology is superior because it requires

no digital-to-analog conversion and is a pure

digital signal from the DVD Recorder & VCR to

your TV.

==What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)

is a system for protecting DVD content output

via HDMI from being copied, it provides a secure

digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc)

and a display device (TV, projector, etc). Content

is encrypted at the source device to prevent

unauthorized copies from being made.

• Connect the audio cables(white and red) between the

Component AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Recorder &

VCR and Component AUDIO IN jacks on your TV(or AV

the _1 m,-buttons to select Yes, and then press the

ENTER button.

Compared to standard interlaced video,

progressive scan doubles the amount of video

lines fed to your TV, resulting in a clearer, more

stable, and flicker free image than interlaced

video. The component output jack of the DVD

player can be used for progressive output mode,

which is only available with TVs that support

progressive scan.

Progressive Scan Output (480p)

Consumers should note that not all high definition

television sets are fully compatible with this

product and may cause artifacts to be displayed

in the picture. If you experience 480p progressive

scan picture problems, it is recommended that you

switch the connection to the 'standard definition'

output. If there are questions regarding TV set

compatibility with this model, please contact our

Pictures with copy protection cannot be recorded on this DVD

Recorder & VCR.

When the DVD Recorder & VCR receives a copy guard signal while

recording, recording stops and the following message (to the left)

appears on the screen.

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 program, use a DVD-RW with

CPRM in VR Mode or DVD-RAM discs.

('O' : Supported, '-' : Not Supported)

Copy-Free Copy-Once Copy-Never

DVD+R O

Once "Copy Once" has been recorded, additiona! recordings cannot be

performed.

* compatible with CPRM.

• 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 Recorder & VCR, but not by many

DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media

ID etched in the BCA(Burst Cutting Area). 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.
