Overview (Continued)

About DVD+R and DVD+RW disc

How are DVD+R and DVD+RW discs different?

The essential difference between DVD+R and DVD+RW

is that DVD+R is a record-once medium, while

DVD+RW is a re-recordable/erasable medium. You can

re-record/ erase a DVD+RW disc approximately 1,000

times.

DVD+RW mode recording

• 4 different picture quality/recording time settings avail-

able (XP, SP, LP, EP)

• Playable on regular DVD players

• The edited contents is playable on regular DVD play-

ers only after finalizing

• Recordings can be edited the title/chapter

DVD+R mode recording

• 4 different picture quality/recording time settings avail-

able (XP, SP, LP, EP)

• Playable on regular DVD players (after finalizing)

• Any edited contents are not be compatible on regular

DVD players. (Hide, chapter combine, added chapter

mark, etc.)

• Limited title/chapter editing features

DVD +R (Double Layer)

Double layer recording technology offers two recordable

layers on a single DVD disc, providing nearly double the

capacity of 4.7GB single layer DVDs. The greatest,

most valuable benefit of double layer recording technol-

ogy is increased capacity. Storage space is nearly dou-

bled with double layer DVD+R media, allowing con-

sumers to burn up to 8.5GB of video on a single

DVD+R disc.

Notes for recording

About DVD recording

• The recording times shown are not exact because the

recorder uses variable bit-rate video compression.

This means that the exact recording time will depend

on the material being recorded.

• When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is

poor or the picture contains interference, the record-

ing times may be shorter.

• If you record still pictures or audio only, the recording

time may be longer.

• The displayed times for recording and time remaining

may not always add up to exactly the length of the

disc.

otes

• This recorder cannot make recordings on CD-R or

CD-RW discs.

• Our company takes no responsibility for recording fail-

ure due to power cuts, defective discs, or damage to

the recorder.

• Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can affect

playback and/or recording performance. Please take

proper care of your discs.

Disc types and recording formats, modes,

and settings

• The recording time available may decrease if you

heavily edit a disc.

• The overwrite recording is available with DVD+RW

disc.

This recorder can play five different kinds of DVD disc:

pre-recorded DVD-Video discs, DVD-RW, DVD-R,

DVD+RW and DVD+R discs. The disc format for DVD-R

discs is always “Video format”—the same as pre-record-

ed DVD-Video discs. This means that once finalized,

you can play a DVD-R in a regular DVD player.

Precautions

Notes on Discs

Handling discs

Handling the unit

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the

disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the

surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials

come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the

unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.

When setting up the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio

may be distorted during playback. In this case, position

the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the

unit after removing the disc.

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.

To keep the surface clean

Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of

heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-

light, as there may be a considerable temperature

increase inside the car.

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,

near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in

contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will

leave marks on the surface.

Cleaning discs

Cleaning the unit

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-

ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean

the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-

ter outward.

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,

use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent

solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,

benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface

of the unit.

Yes

To obtain a clear picture

The Recorder is a high-tech, precision device. If the

optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or

worn, the picture quality will be poor.

Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended

after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the

operating environment.)

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,

thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static

spray intended for older vinyl records.

For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Sampling Frequency

AUDIO

If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling

96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is

made, this unit will automatically convert any 96 kHz

signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.

If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling

96 kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is

made, this unit will pass each type of signal through

without any further processing.

Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.

Set the recorder’s Audio Output according to the type of

audio system you use.

Dolby Digital

PCM: Select when connected to a 2-channel digital stereo

amplifier. The Recorder’s digital audio outputs sounds in

the PCM 2ch format when you play a DVD video disc

scenes are available for selection on some discs.

Ratings are country-dependent. The Parental Control

technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback

quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to

these standards. There are many different types of

recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3

existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible

playback.

Customers should also note that permission is

required in order to download MP3/Windows

record when:

• There is no disc (or tape) loaded.

• A non-recordable disc (or tape) is loaded.

• Disc Protect is set to ON in the Setup menu

(see page 30).

Follow steps 2-5 as shown on previous page

You cannot enter a timer program when:

• A recording is already underway.

• The time you’re trying to set has already passed.

• There are already 8 timer programs set.

If two or more timer programs overlap:

• The earlier program takes priority.

• When the earlier program finishes, the later program

starts.

• If two programs are set to start at exactly the same

time, the program entered first takes priority.

If the disc is damaged, the recording may not complete

successfully. In this case even though the Check field

shows “Rec. OK”, it may not be.

Keep the Recorder plugged into an AC power outlet

with POWER On. This will help prevent condensation.

• When condensation has occurred, wait a few hours

for the Recorder to dry before using it.

• Under extremely humid conditions.
