Recording Mode
MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture
quality, the “bps” unit is used to represent how much data can be
recorded per second. The larger this value is, the better the picture
quality becomes but more capacity is required for the recording.
Select XP or SP for programmes where quick movement occurs,
such as sports programmes, and LP or EP for talk shows, etc. with
relatively less movement.
● For details on FR mode, refer to “Free Rate Function” ( ੬ pg. 37)
Recording Resume Function
If there is a power outage during recording, Instant Timer
Recording (ITR) (
੬ pg. 39) or timer recording (੬ pg. 44, 46), the
recording will resume automatically when power is restored to the
unit unless the unit’s memory backup has expired.
