DivX is a compressed digital video format

created by the DivX video codec from DivX,

Inc. This recorder can play DivX video files

burned on CD-R/-RW/-ROM discs. Keeping

the same terminology as DVD-Video,

individual DivX video files are called "Titles."

When naming files/titles on a CD-R/-RW disc

prior to burning, keep in mind that by default

they will be played in alphabetical order.

• File structure: Up to 99 folders / 999 files

(if these limits are exceeded, only files

and folders up to these limits are

playable)

Note

1 DRM (digital rights management) copy protection is a technology designed to prevent unauthorized copying by

restricting playback, etc. of compressed audio files on devices other than the PC (or other recording equipment)

used to record it. For detailed information, please see the instruction manuals or help files that came with your

PC and/or software.

PC-created disc compatibility

About the internal hard disk

drive

Discs recorded using a personal computer

may not be playable in this unit due to the

setting of the application software used to

create the disc. In these particular

instances, check with the software publisher

for more detailed information.

The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile

piece of equipment. Depending on the

conditions under which it is used, or through

careless use, it is possible that the recorded

contents will be damaged or lost completely,

or that normal playback and recording will

not be possible. Please understand that in

the event of repair or replacement of the

HDD or related components, all your HDD

recordings will be lost.

Discs recorded in packet write mode (UDF

format) are not compatible with this

recorder.

Check the DVD-R/-RW or CD-R/-RW

software disc boxes for additional

compatibility information.

Please use the recorder following the

guidelines below to protect against possible

HDD failure.

Dolby Digital

The HDD should not be regarded as a place to

store recordings permanently. We

recommend that you back up your important

recordings onto DVD discs in order to protect

against accidental loss.

Pioneer cannot under any circumstances

accept responsibility for any direct or indirect

loss arising from any inconvenience or loss of

recorded material resulting from HDD failure.

• Do not use the recorder in excessively

hot or humid places, or in places that

may be subject to sudden changes in

temperature. Sudden changes in

temperature can cause condensation to

form inside the recorder. This can be a

cause of HDD failure.

When copying HDD titles to DVD, you can,

however, edit the titles in your copy list,

erasing chapters you don’t need, or re-

naming titles, for example. Edits you make to

copied, except when copying from a

finalized Video mode disc.

• Resetting the recorder to its factory

settings (see Resetting the recorder on

page 160) will erase the Copy List.

• Thumbnail picture markers and chapter

markers for the Disc Navigator are

copied, but their position in the copy

may be slightly changed from the

loaded); however, the steps are slightly

different.

• If some part of the title being copied is

copy-protected, copying will start, but

the copy-protected portions will not be

copied.

• If you want to use a DVD-RW (VR mode)

disc for the copy, make sure it is

initialized before you start.

HDD

As you record, erase and edit recordings, the

HDD file system gradually becomes

fragmented. Periodically, the HDD will need

optimizing to ‘clean up’ all the fragmented

files.

When your DVD recorder is working without

a problem this option is not visible in the

Disc Setup menu. However, if the HDD file

system becomes corrupted for some reason,

you can initialize the HDD to fix the problem.

Note that initializing the HDD will erase all

the data on it.

When the HDD needs optimizing the

recorder will automatically display a

message recommending optimization.

Select ‘Disc Setup’ from the

Home Menu.

Important

• Optimizing the HDD can take as long as

eight hours. During optimization,

playback and recording are not possible.

ENTER

Select ‘Initialize HDD’ then

‘Start’.

• Canceling optimization mid-way does

not undo the optimization already done,

so the HDD will be partly optimized.

Handling discs

When holding discs of any type, take care

not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on

the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or

by the center hole and edge.

For more detailed care information see the

instructions that come with discs.

Do not load more than one disc into the

recorder.

Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback

and recording performance. Take care also

not to scratch the label side of the disc.

Although not as fragile as the recorded side,

scratches can still result in a disc becoming

unusable.

Damaged discs

Discs spin at high speed inside the recorder.

If you can see that a disc is cracked,

chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged,

don't risk using it; you could end up

damaging the recorder.

Should a disc become marked with

fingerprints, dust, etc., clean using a soft,

dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the

center to the outside edge. Do not wipe with

a circular motion.

This recorder is designed for use with

conventional, fully circular discs only. Use of

shaped discs is not recommended for this

product. Pioneer disclaims all liability

arising in connection with the use of shaped

discs.

If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol,

or a commercially available CD/DVD

cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly.

Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning

agents, including products designed for

cleaning vinyl records.

Storing discs

Cleaning the pickup lens

Although CDs and DVD discs are more

durable than vinyl records, you should still

take care to handle and store discs correctly.

When you're not using a disc, return it to its

case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs

in excessively cold, humid, or hot

environments (including under direct

sunlight).

The DVD recorder’s lens should not become

dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it

should malfunction due to dust or dirt,

consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized

service center. Although lens cleaners are

commercially available, we do not

recommend using them since some may

damage the lens.

Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the

disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other

sharp-tipped writing instrument. These

could all damage the disc.

Condensation

ꢉ

Use in a kitchen or other room where the

recorder may be exposed to smoke or steam.

Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover

with cloth—this may prevent proper cooling

of the unit.

ꢉ

Condensation may form inside the recorder

if it is brought into a warm room from

outside, or if the temperature of the room

rises quickly. Although the condensation

won’t damage the recorder, it may

temporarily impair its performance. For this

reason you should leave it to adjust to the

warmer temperature for about an hour

before switching on and using.

ꢉ

Place on an unstable surface, or one that

is not large enough to support all four of the

unit’s feet.

Moving the recorder

If you need to move the recorder, first

remove the disc, if loaded, and close the disc

tray. Next, press ꢅ STANDBY/ON to switch

the power to standby, checking that the

POWER OFF indication in the display goes

off. Wait at least two minutes. Lastly,

disconnect the power cord. Never lift or

move the unit during playback or
