Timer Recording Troubleshooting
Even if a Timer Recording is set, the DVD
Recorder+VCR will not record if:
• No disc is loaded.
• A non-recordable disc is loaded.
• Disc Protect is set to ON in the Disc Settings menu;
see page 26.
• There are already 99 titles recorded on the disc.
You cannot enter a Timer Recording if:
• A recording is already under way.
• The start time has already passed.
• Eight Timer Recordings have already been set.
If two or more Timer Recordings overlap:
• The earlier program takes priority.
• When the earlier program finishes, the later program
starts.
• If two programs are set to start at exactly the same
time, the program entered first takes priority.
Confirmation is not possible when:
• The Disc Protect setting is set to ON.
• There are already 99 titles recorded on the disc.
If the disc is damaged, the recording may not complete
successfully, even if the Check field shows “Rec. OK”.
