About DVD recording
Notes:
This recorder cannot make recordings on CD-R or
CD-RW discs.
Our company takes no responsibility for recording
failure due to power outages, defective discs, or
damage to the Recorder.
Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can
affect playback and/or recording performance.
Please take proper care of your discs.
Disc types and recording formats, modes,
and settings
This recorder can play three different kinds of DVD
discs: pre-recorded DVD-Video discs, DVD+RW, and
DVD+R discs. The DVD+R and DVD+RW discs are
always “Video format”—the same as pre-recorded
DVD-Video discs. This means that once finalized or
make edits compatible, you can play a DVD+R, or
DVD+RW in a regular DVD player.
Recording time and picture quality
There are four preset recording quality modes:
HQ – Highest quality setting, gives about 1 hour of
recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).
SQ – Default quality, sufficient for most applications,
gives about 2 hours of recording time on a DVD
(4.7GB).
LQ – Slightly lower video quality, gives about 4 hour
of recording time on a DVD disc (4.7GB).
EQ – Lowest video quality, gives about 6 hour of
recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).

Notes for recording
The recording times shown are not exact because
the recorder uses variable bit-rate video
compression. This means that the exact recording
time will depend on the material being recorded.
When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is
poor or the picture contains interference, the
recording times may be shorter.
If you record still pictures or audio only, the
recording time may be longer.
The displayed times for recording and time
remaining may not always add up to exactly the
length of the disc.
The recording time available may decrease if you
heavily edit a disc.
When using a DVD+R disc, you can keep recording
until the disc is full, or until you finalize the disc.
Before you start a recording session, check the
amount of recording time left on the disc.
The Delete Title option in the Title List menu only
hides the title, it does not actually erase the title
from the disc and increase the recording time
available (except for the last recorded title on a
DVD+RW disc).
When using a DVD+R/RW, the recorder will execute
the Menu-making operation to update the new title
and editing when removing the disc from the
recorder. So you must remove the disc after
selecting the recorder’s operation mode to DVD
mode.
This recorder records with NTSC or PAL signal
depend on the source. But the recorder cannot
record NTSC and PAL signals on a DVD disc
simultaneously.
