Canceling and stopping a timer recording in
progress
After a timer recording has started, you can cancel the
program (but continue recording), or stop recording
completely if you need to.
1 During timer recording, press and hold ì REC for
three seconds.
Only the program is canceled (the timer indicator
disappears); recording continues so that you can
manually stop recording whenever you like.
2 When you want to stop recording completely,
press STOP REC.
Preventing use of the recorder before a
timer recording (child lock)
You can make all the front panel and remote control
buttons inoperative using the child lock feature. This is
useful when you set a timer recording and want to make
sure that the timer settings are not changed before
recording has finished.
1 If the recorder is on, switch it into standby.
2 Press and hold STOP on the front panel for
three seconds to lock the controls.
The front panel display briefly shows LOCK . If any buttons
are pressed on the remote or front panel, LOCK is briefly
displayed again.
• To unlock the recorder, press and hold STOP on
the front panel for three seconds until the display
shows
UNLOCK .
• To cancel a timer recording when the recorder is
locked, first unlock the recorder (see above), then
press and hold
ì REC for three seconds.
Timer recording FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
• Even though the timer is set, the recorder doesn’t start
recording!
Check that the disc loaded or HDD is recordable, not
locked (see
Lock Disc on page 102), and that there are
fewer than 99/999 titles already on the DVD/HDD.
• The recorder won’t let me enter a timer program! Why
not?
You can’t enter a timer program if the clock isn’t set.
• What happens when two or more timer programs
overlap?
Basically, the program with the earlier recording start
time has priority. However, the recorder will start
recording the program with the later start time after
the earlier program is finished. If two programs have
the same times (but different channels, for example),
the program set most recently takes priority.
If VPS/PDC is active for two timer programs that are
programmed to start at the same time, then the
program that actually starts first takes priority.
Simultaneous recording and
playback
A feature called Chase Play makes it possible to watch a
recording in progress (DVD or HDD) from the start of the
recording (as in, playback is ‘chasing’ the recording). 1
For example, perhaps you have to miss the first 30
minutes of a movie on TV; you can start recording, then
start watching the movie, from the beginning, while the
recorder is still recording 30 minutes ahead of you.
In fact, you’re not just limited to watching the recording
in progress; you can watch anything else already on the
DVD or HDD by selecting it from the Disc Navigator
screen (see
Using the Disc Navigator with recordable
discs and the HDD on page 52).

Note
1 • You can’t use simultaneous playback and recording while copying or backing up.
• During recording or in timer recording standby, you can’t play an HDD title, DVD or Video CD/Super VCD disc if the Input Line System setting
doesn’t match the TV line system of the disc/HDD title (see also
Input Line System on page 108). Also, during simultaneous recording and
playback, if the TV line system of the playback track/title changes then playback will automatically stop.
