IMPORTANT NOTE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug. If it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is

required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a

power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the

plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains jack, as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug must be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the mains plug shall be readily operable.

General Features

The DVD Recorder allows you to record and play high quality digital video on DVD-RW/DVD-R discs. You can record and edit digital images on DVD-RW/DVD-R discs as if they were VCR tapes.

High quality digital audio and video recording and playback

Record up to 8-hours of images with a 4.7 GB DVD-RW/DVD-R disc, depending on the recording mode.

Selectable Recording Mode

You can set your recorder to one of four different recording speeds, each varying in recording quality and length. EP (6Hr or 8Hr) mode yields the most recording time, LP & SP modes provide less recording time with higher quality recording, XP mode gives you the highest quality recording.

Automated Quality Adjustment for Timer Recording

If FR mode is selected, the video quality is adjusted automatically so that all video for the scheduled time can be recorded onto the free disc space.

(See page 46.)

Creating a DVD video title using

DVD-RW/DVD-R disc

With the DVD Recorder, you can create your own DVD Video titles on 4.7 GB DVD-RW/DVD-R discs.

Copying data from a digital camcorder using a DV input jack (DVD-R130, R131 only)

Record DV Device video onto DVD-RW, DVD-R discs using the DV input jack (IEEE 1394-4pin/4pin).

(See pages 43-44.)

High quality progressive scan

Progressive scanning provides high resolution and flicker free video. The 10-bit 54-MHz DAC and 2D Y/C Separating Circuitry provides the highest image playback and recording quality. (See pages 21, 35)

A variety of functions with an easy-to-use user interface

The integrated menu system and the messaging function allow you to perform desired operations both easily and conveniently. With a DVD-RW disc, you can edit recorded video, create a playlist, edit video in a specific sequence according to your requirements.

Step 1 Select the disc type

This DVD Recorder can record on the following types of discs.

If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable DVD-RW type disc.

If you want to save recording without any change, choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.

Step 2 Format the disc to start recording

Unlike a VCR, the DVD Recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.

Using a DVD-RW

This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video format (Video mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed. You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied editing.

Using a DVD-R

Formatting a disc is unnecessary and only Video Mode Recording is supported. You can play this type of discs on various DVD components only when they have been finalised.

???You can only use either the VR or Video mode on a DVD-RW, but not

???You can change the DVD-RW format to another format by reinitializing. It should be noted that the disc's data will be lost when changing formats.

Getting Started

There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified as a Date : Once, Daily, MO-SA, MO-FR, W-SA, etc.

Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP (extended mode) according to the recording mode. When recording is set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining time on the disc.

Step 4 Playing

You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu and then immediately start playback.

A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub sections called chapters.

During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be created automatically when you finalise recording on DVD-R / DVD-RW discs in Video mode.

The chapter???s length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

Step 6 Finalising & Playing on other DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD components, finalising may be necessary. First, finish all editing and recording operations, then finalise the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalising is generally unnecessary when playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a finalised disc should be used for playback.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on anything other than this DVD Recorder. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised.

When using a DVD-R disc

You should finalise the disc to play it on a component other than this DVD Recorder. You cannot edit or record on the disc once it has been finalised.

Step 5 Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The DVD Recorder supports many different edit functions, possible only with DVDs.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.

Creating a playlist (DVD-RW in VR mode)

With this DVD Recorder, you can create a new playlist on the same disc and edit it without the change of the original recording.

Video with copy protection cannot be recorded on this DVD Recorder.

When the DVD Recorder receives a copy guard signal while recording, recording stops and the following message appears on the screen.

You cannot record copy protected movie.

Concerning Copy Control Signals

TV broadcasts that contain copy control signals may have one of the following three signal types, Copy-Free, Copy-Once and Copy-Never. If you want to record a copy-once type programme, use DVD-RW with CPRM in VR Mode.

Once ???Copy Once??? has been recorded, recording cannot be done anymore.

- Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)

CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on which it is recorded. It is supported by some DVD recorders, but not by many DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media ID etched in the BCA. When protected content is recorded onto the disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria) cipher derived from the media ID. During playback, the ID is read from the BCA and used to generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc.

If the contents of the disc are copied to other media, the ID will be absent or wrong and the data will not be decryptable.

Editing

This section introduces basic functions of DVD editing and explains both edit functions for the recording on a disc and edit functions for the entire disc.

???Title List

A title is a section of recorded video and audio. Title List shows a list to help you select a title. Since the title list consists of the information on

stream that is actually recorded, if one title is deleted, that title cannot be played again.

???Playlist

This refers to a unit of playback, which is made by selecting a desired scene in the entire Title List. When one playlist is played, only the scene selected by the user will play and then stop. Since only the information necessary for playing a desired scene is included in a playlist, even if that playlist is deleted, the original stream will not be deleted.

Recording or editing might not be completed if an error, such as a sudden power failure occurs.

Please be aware that a material that has been damaged is unable to be retrieved to its original content.
