Note
• Note that all recording times (both here and those
shown by the recorder) are only approximate. This is
because of the way that the video is recorded; you
may get slightly more or slightly less, depending on
what you’re recording.
Restrictions on video recording
• You cannot record copy-protected video using this
recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video
discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-
protected material is encountered during a
recording, recording will pause automatically and an
error message will be displayed on-screen.
• Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be recorded on
a DVD-RW disc in VR mode (see below).
• When recording a TV broadcast or through an
external input, you can display copy control
information on screen. (see
Displaying disc
information on-screen
on page 32).
CPRM
CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system
regarding the recording of ‘copy once’ broadcast
programs. CPRM stands for
Content Protection for
Recordable Media
.
This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that
you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you
cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM
recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible DVD-
RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode.
DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players that
are specifically compatible with CPRM.

copying and you are advised to check carefully what is
lawful copying in the country in which you are making a
copy. Copying of copyright material such as films or
music is unlawful unless permitted by a legal exception
or consented to by the rightowners.

Setting the picture quality/recording
time
Before starting a recording, you will usually want to set
the picture quality/recording time. There are four
standard settings available, which allow you to choose a
balance between picture quality and recording time.
It’s also possible to create a fifth, ‘manual’ setting for
picture quality/recording time. Before you can select this,
however, you will need to set the
Manual Recording
option in the Initial Settings menu (see
Manual Recording
on page 87).
•
Press REC MODE (remote or front panel)
repeatedly to select a recording setting.

also shown. (Note that if the On Screen Display setting
