Basic recording from the TV
Basic recording from the TV involves just
setting the channel to record, choosing
whether to record to the HDD or a DVD and
selecting the recording quality.
1 Select the HDD or DVD for
recording.
• If you’re recording to DVD, load a
recordable disc (if you load a new blank
DVD-RW or DVD+RW disc, the recorder
takes a short while to initialize the disc).
• If you want to record a VR mode DVD-R
or a Video mode DVD-RW, you must
initialize it before proceeding (see
Initializing recordable DVD discs on
page 47).
2 Select a TV channel to record.
The front panel display shows the channel
number:
• While the recorder is stopped, you can
also use the number buttons on the
remote to select the channel (For
channel 24, press 2, 4 then ENTER).
• If the recorder is stopped, you can also
use the CH +/– buttons on the front
panel to select the channel number.
3 Set the picture quality/recording
time.
• See Setting the picture quality/recording
time on page 36 for detailed instructions.
4 Select the audio channel to
record.
See Changing audio channels on page 35 for
more on this.
Taiwan and Philippines model:
• When recording in VR mode (DVD) or
with HDD Recording Format set to Video
Mode Off (HDD), both mono and SAP

you to switch the audio channel on
playback. The only exception to this is
when the picture quality is set to LPCM,
in which case you do need to select the
audio channel before recording.
Other:
• When recording in VR mode (DVD) or
with HDD Recording Format set to Video

quality is set to LPCM, in which case you
do need to select the audio channel
before recording.
5 Start recording.

time increases in 30 minute increments, up
to a maximum of six hours. The time the
recording will end is shown on-screen and in
the front panel display. When the recording
ends, the recorder automatically switches
into standby if no other operation is being
performed.
