The Initial Setup menu

Optimized Rec

• Default setting:

Off

On the default setting, if a timer program (standard, easy
or G-Code programming system) is set but there isn’t
enough space on the disc at the recording quality set, the
recording will start, but it will be cut off when the disc is
full. Set

Optimized Rec

to have the recorder

automatically adjust the recording quality to fit the
available disc space.

Note

• You may notice a reduction in picture quality if the

recorder has to fit a lot of extra material into the
remaining time available on the disc.

• If, even on recording level

, there is insufficient

space available on the disc, the recording is made at
level

but recording will stop once the disc is

full.

• Optimized Recording only compensates for the first

(earliest starting) timer program if more than one has
been set.

Navi Mark

• Default setting:

0 seconds

In the Disc Navigator, each title is shown with a still
frame picture to remind you what it is. This setting lets
you decide the default still frame. The default setting of

seconds

takes the first frame of the title, but you can also

set it to

30 seconds

3 minutes

into the title (if the title

is shorter than the setting, then the first frame is used).

Auto Chapter (Video)

• Default setting:

10 minutes

When recording in Video mode, a new chapter is started
every 10 minutes on the default setting. You can change
this interval to

15 minutes

, or switch off automatic

chapter marking altogether with the

No Separation

setting.
