Setting the picture quality/

recording time

Before starting a recording, you will usually
want to set the picture quality/recording
time. There are six standard settings
available, which allow you to choose a
balance between picture quality and
recording time.

When Manual Recording is set to On (see

Manual Recording

on page 145), a further

option will be available (

MN1

to

MN32

or

LPCM

, depending on what you set).

When recording to DVD+R/+RW,

SLP

is the

longest recording time available. If you
select

SEP

or

MN1

to

MN3

, the recording

mode will automatically revert to

SLP

.
