function.

- If you set this function on, you can control the

starting and ending time of recording by special
signal included in the broadcasting signal.
If a TV programme is shortened or starts earlier or
later than scheduled, this function synchronizes
the starting and ending time of recording with the
actual broadcasting time automatically.

- Set up the start-time EXACTLY according to the

published TV schedule. Otherwise the timer
recording will not take place.

- Do not select PDC unless you are sure the

programme you wish to record is broadcast with
PDC.

When you are recording at EP mode on a
DVD-RW(V)/-R disc, it may not record the
full 6 or 8 hours because the DVD
Recorder uses the VBR(Variable Bit Rate)
ENCODING system. For example, if you
record a programme with a lot of action, it
uses a higher bit rate which in turn
consumes more disc memory.
