How does DIRECT RECORD work?
The video recorder compares the TV channel
selected on the TV with its stored TV channels via
the scart cable. If the same TV channel is found, it
switches the video recorder to the corresponding
programme number and starts recording. Please
do not change the TV channel on the TV during
the search so as not to affect the process.
