To watch another TV programme while
recording
If your TV is connected to the LINE 1-TV jack, set
your TV to the TV input using the TV/DVD
button and select the programme you want to
watch. If your TV is connected to the LINE 2 OUT
or COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, set the TV
to TV input using the
t (TV/video) button
(page 20).
TV Direct Rec
If you use the SMARTLINK connection, you can
easily record what you are watching on your TV.
When the TV is turned on or in standby mode,
insert a disc and press z REC. The recorder
automatically turns on and starts recording what
you are watching on the TV. “TV” appears in the
front panel display. You cannot turn off the TV or
change the programme position during TV Direct
Rec. To turn off the function, set “TV Direct Rec”
to “Off” in Features Setup (page 86).
z Hint
If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can
turn off the TV. When using a decoder, make sure to
leave it on.
Notes
• After pressing z REC, it may take a short while to start
recording.
• You cannot change the recording mode while
recording or during recording pause.
• If there is a power failure, the programme you are
recording may be erased.
• To use the TV Direct Rec function, you must first set
the recorder’s clock correctly.
Using the Quick Timer function
You can set the recorder to record in 30-minute
increments.
Press z REC repeatedly to set the duration.
Each press advances the time in 30-minute
increments. The maximum duration is six hours.
The time counter decreases minute by minute to
0:00, then the recorder stops recording (power
does not turn off). Even if you turn off the recorder
during recording, the recorder continues to record
until the time counter runs out.
Note that the Quick Timer function does not work
if “TV Direct Rec” is set to “On” in Features Setup
(page 86).
To cancel the Quick Timer
Press z REC repeatedly until the counter appears
in the front panel display. The recorder returns to
normal recording mode.
