◆When the timer settings overlap
The programme that starts first has priority and the second
programme starts recording only after the first programme has
finished.
◆When the recordings start at the same time
The programme that is set last has priority. In this example, timer
setting B is set after A, so the first part of timer setting A will not
be recorded.
◆When the end time of one recording and the start time of
another are the same
After finishing the previous recording, the other recording may
be delayed.
Note
When “PDC/VPS” is set to “On” for one or more timer recordings, the
start times may change in the event of a broadcast delay or early start.
