• If VPS/PDC is active for two timer

programmes that are programmed to
start at the same time, then the
programme that actually starts first
takes priority.

a broadcast programme overruns, for
example.

before a timer recording (child

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 116), and that there are fewer than
99/999 titles already on the DVD/HDD.

• The recorder won’t let me enter a timer

programme! Why not?

You can’t enter a timer programme if the
clock isn’t set.

• What happens when two or more timer

programmes overlap?

Basically, the programme with the earlier
recording start time has priority.
However, the recorder will start recording
the programme with the later start time
after the earlier programme is finished. If
schedule to record two programmes
have the same times (but different
channels, for example), then only one of
the two programmes will be recorded. In
this event you should cancel the
scheduled recording of the lesser
important programme. If one of the
overlapping programmes is a regular
timer programme for a digital broadcast,
you may choose

‘Cancel Once’

in order

to avoid having it overlap with a
separately scheduled programme

(see

Skipping a regular timer programme

on

page 55)
