priority. A mark will appear next to the overlapped setting in the
Timer List. Check the priority order of the settings.
Changing the priority of overlapped
settings
The recorder records the programs according to priority if the
timer settings overlap. The timer setting set last has priority.
If the timer settings overlap, the program that has priority will be
recorded. A timer recording of lower priority will be canceled,
start from the middle, or stop on the way.
Check the overlapped timer settings and change the priority if
necessary.
When the timer settings overlap
If the timer is set using the manual or VCR Plus+ setting, the
program set last has priority.
Example: you set the timer in order of A, B, and C (setting C has
first priority)
If you give priority to setting B over setting C, program B will
be entirely recorded and program C is recorded only after
program B has finished.
z Hint
You can change the priority of a timer setting during recording.
Note
If the end time of one recording and the start time of another are the
same, the beginning or end of a program of lower priority may be cut.
