Direct Record
Can you record the right TV channel in seconds when the DVD recorder is switched off? No
problem. If recording is started manually, the switchedoff DVD recorder takes the current TV
channel from the TV set via the scart cable.
You will find more information on how to switch 'Direct record' on or off in the next section
'Direct record'.
How does Direct Record work?
The DVD recorder compares the TV channel selected on the TV set with its
stored TV channels via the scart cable. If the same TV channel is found, it
switches the DVD recorder to the corresponding programme number and
starts recording.
Please do not change channel on the TV during the search. This could affect
the tuning of the DVD recorder.
