§2
When “Recording time in EP mode” is set to “EP (6 Hours)” in the Setup menu (➡ 63).
The sound quality is better when using “EP (6 Hours)” than when using “EP (8 Hours)”.
§3
Refer to “Recording to DVD-R DL and +R DL” (➡ 7).
≥[RAM] When recording to DVD-RAM using “EP (8 Hours)” mode, play may not be possible on DVD players that are compatible with DVD-RAM.
Use “EP (6 Hours)” mode if playback may be on other equipment.
≥[RAM] [-R] [-R]DL] [-RW‹V›] You can record up to 99 titles on one disc.
≥[+R] [+R]DL] [+RW] You can record up to 49 titles on one disc.
FR (Flexible Recording Mode)
You can set FR (Flexible Recording) mode when copying or programming timer recordings.
The unit automatically selects a recording rate between XP and EP (8 Hours) that will enable the recordings to fit in the remaining disc space with
the best possible recording quality.
For example with a 90 minute recording to an unused DVD-RAM, the picture quality is adjusted to between “XP” and “SP”.
≥All the recording modes from XP to EP appear in the display.
≥To prevent recording errors:
Set a timer recording period slightly longer than the actual
programme (to make sure the programme is recorded in full).
≥If the image quality is important to you or if you wish to store the
tape for a long period, select SP.
≥The unit can play tapes recorded in LP mode on other equipment.
≥AUTO Mode
–The tape length must be set correctly (➡ 65).
–Picture distortion may occur when the recording mode switches.
–This may not work correctly with some video cassettes.
–It may not work correctly when NTSC is set as the “TV System”
(➡ 69).
