Make sure batteries are in the remote control and you have connected this unit and the TV correctly.
Step 1: Choose a disc type
There are several types of recordable DVD discs to
choose from. Choose a recordable DVD disc type
based on your playing/recording/editing reguire-
ments. See “DVD disc types” at the bottom of this
page for more information on the differences
between the different kinds of compatible media.
This DVD recorder can record on the following
type of discs.
* This unit cannot record on the following discs.
• DVD-RW Ver 1.2 / 2-4x CPRM compatible
• DVD-R General Ver 2.0 / 8x

ly on the same disc, or when you want to edit the
disc after recording, select the rewritable DVD-
RW type disc.
When you want to save recordings without any
alteration, a non-rewritable DVD-R can be your
choice.

Information on DVD recording
Recording
Information
This DVD recorder can record to DVD-R and
DVD-RW discs.When recording, you will need to
select a recording format between Video mode and
VR mode depending on the disc format.The disc
format for DVD-R is always “Video format,” so a
recording format will be “Video mode”.
On the other hand, when recording to DVD-RW, a
recording format will be “Video mode” or “VR
mode” because a disc format is available between
“Video Recording format” and “Video format” for
DVD-RW.
* This unit cannot record on the following discs.
• DVD-RW Ver 1.2 / 2-4x CPRM compatible
• DVD-R General Ver 2.0 / 8x
About Video mode and VR (Video Recording)
mode
Video mode is the same recording format as DVD-
Video discs purchased locally, so that you can play in
most DVD players.To play in other DVD players,
you will need to finalize (see page 39). Unless final-
ized, you can play, record additionally or edit discs
recorded in Video mode with this unit.
VR (Video Recording) mode is a basic recording
format for DVD-RW.You can record and edit
repeatedly.
DVD players with are capable of playing
DVD-RW recorded in VR mode.
Recording speed
You can select a recording speed among 6 options,
and the recording time will depend on the record-
ing speed you select as follows.
* This table is designed for a new single-sided 12cm
disc as the standard.The recording time are esti-
mates and actual recording time may differ.
* The audio and video quality is getting poorer as
the Recording time becomes longer.
* Discs recorded in SLP or SEP on this recorder
may not be played back on other DVD recorders
or DVD players.
Restrictions on recording
You cannot record copy-protected video using this
DVD recorder. Copy-protected video includes
DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts.
If copy-protected material is encountered during a
recording, recording will pause or stop automatically
and an error message will be displayed on-screen.
Video that is “copy-once only” can only be recorded
using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with CPRM (see
below).
When recording a TV broadcast or through an
external input, you can display copy control informa-
tion on screen.
What is “CPRM”?
CPRM is a copy protection system with scram-
ble system regarding the recording of “copy
once” broadcast programs. CPRM stands for
Content Protection for Recordable Media.
This DVD recorder is CPRM compatible, which
means that you can record copy-once broad-
cast programs, but you cannot then make a
copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can
only be made on DVD-RW discs formatted in
VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be
played on players that are specifically compati-
ble with CPRM.

• The audio and video quality is getting poorer as
the Recording time becomes longer.
• This recorder cannot record CD-RW or CD-R
discs.
• DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs recorded using
a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder

lisher for more detailed information.)
• Discs recorded in Video mode on this DVD
recorder cannot record additionally using other
DVD recorders.
• A DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit cannot be
used in other DVD recorders without any recording
using this unit.
• Since the recording is made by the variable bit
rate (VBR) method, depending on the picture you
are recording, the actual remaining time for
recording may be a little shorter than the
remaining time displayed on the OSD.

Glossary
Others
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly
represents sound. Compare this
to digital audio which can be an
electrical signal, but is an indirect
representation of sound. See also
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 as wide as it is high).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into sev-
eral chapters, a title on a DVD
disc is usually divided into chap-
ters. See also Title.
Component video output
Each signal of luminance(Y) and
component(PB/CB,PR/CR) is inde-
pendent to output so that you can
experience picture color as it is.
Also, due to compatibility with
progressive video (480p), you can
experience higher-density picture
than that in interlace (480i).
CPRM
(Content Protection for
Recordable Media)
CPRM is a copy protection sys-
tem with scramble system regard-
ing the recording of “copy-once”
broadcast programs (e.g. some
satellite broadcasts).
Digital audio
An indirect representation of
sound by numbers. During record-
ing, the sound is measured at dis-
crete intervals (44, 100 times a
second for CD audio) by an ana-
log-to-digital converter, generating
a stream of numbers. On playback,
a digital-to-analog converter gen-
erates an analog signal based on
these numbers. See also Sampling
frequency and Analog audio.
Dolby Digital
The system to compress digital
sound developed by Dolby
Laboratories. It offers you sound
of stereo(2ch) or multi-channel
audio (up to 5.1ch).
DTS (Digital Theater System)
DTS is a 5.1channel surround
sound system, but it is different
from Dolby Digital.The formats
were developed by Digital Theater
System, Inc.
Finalize
To make DVD discs, which have
been recorded on, possible to play
in DVD players.With this DVD
recorder, it is possible to finalize
DVD-R/DVD-RW 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 comput-
er and play the files on this unit.
PCM
(Pulse Code Modulation)
The most common system of
encoding digital audio, found on
CDs and DAT. Excellent quality,
but requires a lot of data com-
pared to formats such as Dolby
Digital and MPEG audio. For com-
patibility with digital audio
recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and
AV amplifiers with digital inputs,
this unit can convert Dolby Digital
and MPEG audio to PCM. See also
Digital audio.
Playlist
From this list you can play con-
tents of a disc as your desired
order or in sequence.Also it is
allowed to search a specific scene
directly.
Progressive Scan (480p)
A type of display that does not
split each frame into fields, and
instead scans directly through all
the scanlines of each frame in
order. Progressive Scan provides
less flickering and higher image
resolution than traditional (480i)
TV signals. Refer to page 13 for
instructions on selective
Progressive Scan mode.
Regions code
Regions associate discs and play-
ers with particular areas of the
world.This unit will only play discs
that have compatible region
codes.You can find the region
code of your unit by looking on
the rear panel. Some discs are
compatible with more than one
region (or all regions).
Sampling frequency
The rate which sound is measured
by a specified interval to turn into
digital audio data.The numbers of
sampling in one second defines as
sampling frequency.The higher the
rate, the better the sound quality
as possible as it is.
SAP
(Secondary Audio Program)
Sub-audio channel which is deliv-
ered separately from main-audio
channel.This audio channel is used
as an alternate in bilingual broad-
casting.
S-Video output
It delivers independently each signal
of color(C) and luminance(Y) to TV
as video signals, so that higher-quali-
ty picture will be gained.
Title (DVD only)
A collection of chapters on DVD
disc. See also chapter.
Track
Audio CDs use tracks to divide
up the content of a disc.The DVD
equivalent is called a chapter. See
also Chapter.
