Note about recording

Depending on the content being recorded, the recording times may become shorter than indicated.

¢1 It is not possible to record or play continuously from one side of a double sided disc to the other.
¢2 When “Recording Time in EP Mode” is set to “EP-Extended Play (6H)” in the Setup menu (

l 75).

The sound quality is better when using “EP-Extended Play (6H)” than when using “EP-Extended Play (8H)”.

¢3 You cannot record directly to these discs with this unit. The table shows the recording time when copying.
¢4 When recording to the HDD in FR mode (recordings 5 hours or longer) or EP mode, you cannot perform high-speed copy to +R, +R DL or

+RW discs.

≥[RAM] When recording to DVD-RAM using EP (8H) mode, play may not be possible on DVD players that are compatible with DVD-RAM. Use EP

(6H) mode if playback may be on other equipment.

SP: You can record the length shown on the tape.
EP: 3 times the length of SP mode.
VP: 5 times the length of SP mode.

possible to record in the S-VHS system with the unit. It
records in the normal VHS system.

channels while in pause mode.
