How to use the DVD Recorder

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 the recording without making any
changes, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.

Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording

The recorder automatically starts formatting when an
unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation
of disc recording.

Using a DVD-RAM
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video
Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded
video, create a playlist or edit video in a specifi c sequence
according to your requirements.

Using a DVD-RW
• When an unused DVD-RW disc is fi rst inserted, the

message “Uninitialized Disc. Do you want to initialize this
disc?” will be displayed.
If you select Yes, initializing will begin. A DVD-RW disc
can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (Video
mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode)

Using a DVD-R
When using a DVD-R disc, only V mode recording is
possible and no initialization is needed to play it on this
recorder. However, fi nalization is necessary to play this
disc on other DVD players.

You can only use either the VR or Video mode on
a DVD-RW, but not both at the same time.
You can format a DVD-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
(recording a program you are currently watching) and
Timer Recording. Timer recording is determined as a Date :
MM/DD, MON-FRI, Every SAT, etc.. There are 5 recording
modes : XP(high quality mode), SP(standard quality mode),
LP(long recording mode), EP(extended mode) and FR
mode. When using FR mode to record, the picture quality is
determined by the remaining time on the disc.
