HDD Recording
Format

Video Mode Off

Recordings made to the HDD are made in VR mode.
Use this setting if you don’t need to transfer the
recording later to a Video mode DVD.

Video Mode On •

Recordings made to the HDD are compatible with
Video mode recordings. This setting is convenient if
you want to transfer the recording to a Video mode
DVD as high-speed copy can be used.

When Video Mode On is used, you must select the audio channel you want to record when recording a bilingual
broadcast. On the Video Mode Off setting, both channels will be recorded and you can switch between them on
playback. See also Bilingual Recording on page 127.
