y The above values indicate the quickest possible times and speeds to high speed copy a one hour title recorded on the HDD to a high speed
recording compatible disc. Depending on what part of the disc is being written to, the features of the disc, etc., the times and speeds will vary.
*
1
In this unit, copying with a 16X Speed DVD-R disc will be performed at the same speed as with a 12X Speed DVD-R disc.
*
2
In this unit, copying with 8X Speed discs, DVD-R DL and +R DL, will be performed at the same speed as with 4X Speed discs, DVD-R DL and
+R DL.
*
3
In this unit, copying with a 6X Speed DVD-RW disc will be performed at the same speed as with a 4X Speed DVD-RW disc.
*
4
In this unit, copying with a 16X Speed +R disc will be performed at the same speed as with a 8X Speed +R disc.
Note
y When recording or playing while copying, the unit may not use the maximum recording speed.
y Depending on the condition of the disc, the unit may not copy using the maximum speed.
Copying titles or playlists
Regarding copying to DVD-R DL (single-sided, Dual Layer)
and +R DL (single-sided, Double Layer)
When not copying in high speed mode, titles are temporarily
copied at normal speed to the HDD and then copied at high speed
to DVD-R DL and +R DL. The titles that were temporarily copied to
the HDD are then deleted.
You cannot copy to DVD-R DL and +R DL in the following cases.
– When there is not enough free space on the HDD. (When
copying to a new blank disc, if you intend to fi ll a new disc
when copying to it, the equivalent of up to 4 hours of free space
in SP mode is needed on the HDD.)
– When the number of titles recorded to the HDD and the
number of titles to be copied to the DVD-R DL and +R DL is
greater than 499 in total.
When playing a title recorded on both layers, video and audio may
momentarily cut out when the unit is switching layers (➡ 13).
Regarding copying of the broadcasts that allow “One time
only recording”
You can copy a recorded title to a CPRM (➡ 96) compatible
DVD-RAM, however, the title is deleted from the HDD.
y Titles or playlists cannot be copied from DVD-RAM to the HDD.
y Titles will not be copied if they are protected (➡ 47).
y You cannot copy playlists created from “One time only recording”
titles.
y Titles with recording limitations and playlists cannot be
registered on the same copying list.
Regarding copying from VHS
y It is not possible to copy a copied “One time only recording” title.
y If you want to copy to the HDD and then to
-R
-R DL
-RW(V)
+R
+R DL
+RW
in high speed mode, set “Rec for High Speed Copy”
to “On” before recording to the HDD (➡ 73).
y If a part of a tape recorded in AUTO mode is copied to the HDD
or a disc, noise may appear on that part.
Regarding copying to VHS
y When copying “One time only recording” titles to VHS, the copy
guard signal is also copied.
– Even when copying to tape the title may not be copied correctly
because of the copy guard. When copying it to HDD or a disc
again, the area where the copy guard signal was recorded is
not copied.
Before copying
When copying a title with main and secondary audio
y Select the audio type for recording bilingual broadcast from “Bilingual Audio Selection” (➡ 74) when:
– Copying to a DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format), +R, +R DL and +RW.
– When “Audio Mode for XP Recording” is set to “LPCM” (➡ 74) and you are copying in XP mode.
