Precautions  
Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.  
Please read through these operating instructions so  
you will know how to operate your model properly.  
Environment Conditions  
Ambient conditions during use should be within the range of  
+5 °C to +35 °C (+41 °F to +95 °F) and 85% Relative Humidity  
(with ventilation ports not blocked).  
7 Care must be taken not to infringe copyright  
restrictions under the laws of each country.  
If this device is used to record copyrighted  
materials, approval must be obtained from the  
respective copyright holders. The recording of  
copyrighted materials without the express  
approval of the respective copyright holders  
may result in legal penalties. Pioneer disclaims  
any and all responsibility for any legal damages  
resulting from the use of this device in the  
unauthorized copying of copyrighted materials.  
7 Pioneer may not be held liable for the loss of  
any data or any other direct or indirect  
damage suffered as the result of the use or  
breakdown of this product.  
7 Prohibited Installation Locations  
• Places exposed to direct sunlight or bright artificial light.  
• Places exposed to high levels of dust or smoke.  
• Places subject to vibration.  
• Places subject to strong electrical or magnetic fields.  
• Close to heat sources.  
• Places exposed to high levels of electrical noise.  
• Places liable to the generation of electrostatic noise.  
• Places exposed to high humidity or poor ventilation.  
• Fully enclosed rack mounts.  
About Condensation  
During winter months when the unit is moved from a cold  
location into a warm room, or when the temperature of the  
installation location is raised suddenly, condensation may form  
on the unit’s internal parts (drive mechanism, laser lens, hard  
disk, etc.). When condensation forms, the unit will not operate.  
To eliminate the condensation, disconnect the power cord  
and allow the unit to warm to room temperature. Depending  
on the degree of condensation, this may require 1-2 hours.  
Once the unit has warmed sufficiently, it will become  
operational again.  
7 All names of corporations, products, and  
systems listed herein, even when the (™) or  
(®) symbols are omitted, should be  
considered the registered trademarks of their  
respective owners.  
Installation Notes  
Condensation may also form during summer months if the  
cool air from an air conditioner is directed toward the unit. In  
this case, change the installation location of the unit or the air  
conditioner.  
Install in a level, stable location. Avoid unstable locations,  
or locations exposed to strong vibrations.  
Do not interfere with the dispersion of heat from the unit.  
Avoid using the unit on deep pile carpets or other thick  
fabrics, and do not cover the unit with blankets or cloths.  
Such usages may interfere with cooling and result in  
malfunctions.  
Moving the Unit  
If transporting of the unit is required, be sure to use the original  
packing materials supplied with the unit, and avoid subjecting  
the unit to impact, vibration, or dropping. Also take precautions  
to avoid exposing the unit to heat or moisture during the move.  
Always remove any discs from the unit before moving. Moving  
the unit with a disc loaded may result in scratches to the disc  
or internal damage to the drive unit.  
Do not place other objects on top of the unit.  
Install in a location not exposed to other sources of heat.  
Avoid installing the unit on top of amplifiers or other  
components that emit heat. When mounting the unit in a  
rack, avoid the effect of heat from amplifiers and other  
audio components by installing the PRV-LX10 as low as  
possible beneath the other components in a well-ventilated  
position in the rack.  
7 Special Precautions  
Never move the unit during playback or recording. During  
playback and recording, the disc is rotating at very high speed,  
and lifting or moving the unit during this time may result in  
damage to the disc. Subjecting the unit to strong impacts or  
vibrations when a disc is loaded may also result in damage to  
the disc or internal parts of the unit. When it is necessary to  
transport the unit, stop any recording or playback operations,  
and remove any disc that is loaded. Remove discs anytime  
lifting or moving of the unit is required.  
When mounting the unit in a rack, special precautions are  
necessary to avoid heat rise inside the unit. As a general  
rule, install the unit in a location not exposed to heat from  
below, and with at least 10 cm clearance to right and left  
and above, to provide for natural convection (ambient  
temperature below 35 °C).  
This unit is designed with precision optical devices. Take  
special care to control room temperature and dust in the  
installation location.  
Under other conditions, install so that when fully warmed  
up, the temperature at a point 5 cm above the center top of  
the case is below 35 °C. Provide for the installation of some  
means of forced ventilation if necessary.  
About Copyright  
When connecting multiple PRV-LX10 units in series and  
using an external means of controlling power ON/OFF, the  
initial current surge will become quite large. Consult your  
service dealer regarding the ratings for power switches  
used with such an installation.  
Unauthorized copying, broadcast, public performance, or  
rental of copyrighted discs is prohibited by law.  
This product incorporates copyright protection technology  
that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents  
and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision  
Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright  
protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision  
Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited

when subjected to severe environmental or usage  
conditions, may reach the end of its operating lifetime in  
only a few years.  
∞ Frequent symptoms occurring when the HDD approaches  
the end of its lifetime including “part or all of the playback  
image will repeatedly enter pause mode,” or “block noise  
(mosaic distortion) and other image distortion will occur”.  
The HDD may also reach the end of its lifetime even  
without these symptoms occurring.  
∞ When the HDD reaches the end of its operating lifetime,  
any data recorded on it may become unrecoverable. When  
the HDD malfunctions at the end of its operating lifetime,  
it must be replaced. Inquire your service dealer.  
(In the event of HDD failure, any data recorded on the  
HDD cannot be recovered.)  
Precautions Regarding Built-In Hard  
Disk Drive (HDD)  
The built-in hard disk drive (HDD) incorporates high-precision  
technology, and recorded contents may be damaged or lost  
under certain conditions of use. Take precautions regarding  
the following:  
7 Important Recordings  
If the built-in hard disk drive malfunctions, contents previously  
recorded on the drive may be lost. Important recordings should  
not be left permanently on the HDD, but preserved as DVD-  
Video discs by means of DVD-R/RW recording. Pioneer  
disclaims any responsible for loss of recorded data or other  
collateral damage arising from any malfunction, including  
failure of the HDD at the end of its operating lifetime.  
Pioneer disclaims all responsibility for the integrity  
of contents recorded on hard disk drives or DVD  
discs, and for any damages resulting from the loss  
of such contents.  
Data Protection in Event of Power Failure  
While operating this unit, if a power failure occurs, the main  
power switch is turned OFF, the power cord is

Preparations for Use: Basic Information  
About DVD-R / DVD-RW Discs  
DVD Recording Modes  
∞ The DVD-R/RW (video mode) discs recorded on this unit  
can be finalized (see page 43) to allow them to be  
played* on other standalone DVD players, automobile  
DVD players, or DVD players installed in computers.  
Some players, however, may exhibit the following  
symptoms when an attempt is made to play such discs:  
Video Mode:  
∞ The “video mode” employs the same recording format  
as commercially sold DVD video discs. As a result, discs  
recorded on this unit can be played on other DVD  
players, but discs must be finalized before they can be  
played in this way (see page 43).  
Discs aren’t accepted by the player.  
∞ Recording to DVD-R/RW discs is in video mode only.  
Macroblock distortion (mosaic pattern) frequently  
VR Mode:  
appears in the video image.  
∞ VR mode is the basic recording mode for DVD-RW,  
allowing repeated recording and editing on a single disc.  
VR is an abbreviation for "Video Recording."  
Sound and image are interrupted.  
Playback stops midway through.  
∞ DVD-RW discs recorded in VR (Video Recording) format  
can be played back on DVD players bearing the  
logo.  
A finalized DVD-R does not permit new recording or  
editing. A DVD-RW disc can be reused if initialized or  
finalization is canceled.  
∞ The recording mode can be switched to Video mode  
when using the following kinds of disc. Be careful,  
however, since formatting of the disc is necessary,  
resulting in the erasure of any previously recorded  
material.  
*
The DVD Forum in 2000 approved the use of the DVD-  
Video format for recording on DVD-R/DVD-RW discs. On  
Pioneer’s DVD Recorders, this is referred to as recording  
in Video Mode. Supporting playback of DVD-R/DVD-RW  
with this type of content is optional for manufacturers of  
DVD playback devices, and there are DVD-Video players,  
DVD-ROM drive equipped PCs or other DVD playback  
devices that do not play DVD-R or DVD-RW discs  
recorded in the Video Format.  
DVD-RW Ver.1.1  
DVD-RW Ver.1.1 CPRM compatible  
DVD-RW Ver.1.1/2xCPRM compatible  
*
This component does not support recording and  
playback of DVD-RW discs in VR mode.  
Precautions When Recording in Video Mode  
∞ Discs recorded in video mode on other recorders and  
which have not yet been finalized on their original  
recorders cannot be played back or further recorded/  
edited (including finalizing) on this unit.  
Recordable discs  
Logo  
Attributes  
12cm, single-sided, single layer disc  
Approx. max. recording time: 360  
minutes (4.7GB)  
∞ When recording DVD-RW discs in video mode use only  
disc media compatible with Ver. 1.1 or later.  
∞ The remaining recording time decreases each time  
recording is performed. Additional recording is possible  
so long as remaining space is still available on the disc  
unless finalization has been performed (see page 43).  
However, DVD-R discs do not permit restoring of disc  
capacity to pre-recorded levels, nor overwriting of  
previously recorded material. These operations are  
possible with DVD-RW discs by reformatting the discs.  
DVD-RW  
12cm, double-sided, single layer disc  
Approx. max. recording time: 720  
minutes (9.4GB)  
DVD-R  
* This unit does not support use of 8 cm DVD-R discs.  
∞ DVD-R/RW discs are especially sensitive to dust,  
fingerprints, and scratches. Since a scratch on the  
disc may make further recording impossible, and  
may make it impossible to playback important data  
recorded on the disc, take special precautions in  
handling and storing these discs.  
Precautions Regarding TV System  
∞ This unit has been factory preset for use with the NTSC  
TV system.  
Regarding DVD-R/RW discs  
∞ Due to the unique construction of DVD-R/RW discs,  
leaving them for extended periods of time in the pause  
mode at a single point may result in the discs’ becoming  
difficult to play at that place. The same symptom may  
also occur if play back a single point on the disc  
excessively.  
∞ CD-R/CD-RW discs cannot be recorded on this unit.  
As a result, users are advised to construct backup  
archive discs when playing discs containing important  
data.

∞ Stereo Playback:  
Stereo playback means sound is played back through independent channels from right and left speakers. The soundtracks  
for DVD video stereo and ordinary music CDs (recorded with 2ch stereo) are played back only from the front speakers,  
even when 5 surround speakers or sub-woofers are connected.

∞ Dolby Digital 5.1 ch or DTS Surround Playback:  
Programs recorded in Dolby Digital (5.1 ch surround) or DTS surround mode are played back through 5 surround speakers  
plus sub-woofer, each with its own independent channel. Since each channel is recorded independently, the reproduced  
sound has high presence and three-dimensionality.  
Sounds of planes flying  
overhead and other moving  
sounds are reproduced with  
three-dimensional realism.  
Sounds of explosions, footsteps of  
dinosaurs and other low-frequency  
sounds are reproduced with bone-  
shaking realism.  
“0.1” refers to the  
Center

PRV-LX10 Video Clip Management and Disc  
Authoring Procedure  
When recording to either disc or hard disk drive (HDD), the PRV-LX10 manages the video recording clips by  
units of “project.” When creating a disc from clips recorded on HDD, this project unit is used to perform the  
disc recording.  
A project is composed of individual recorded video clips (video data); while on the HDD, clips can be subjected  
to simple editing processes (trimming, chapter marking and clip dividing), and editing of the clip selections and  
their order can also be performed when recording from the HDD to DVD.

as a single unit called a video file (clip or title). Chapter marking can also be performed during recording.

production procedures, are noted below:

Basic PRV-LX10 Operations  
7 Operations Using a Mouse or Keyboard  
A commercially available keyboard or mouse (with  
USB connector) can be used to control the main unit  
for more efficient selection of setting items. Also,  
the keyboard’s function keys can be programmed  
with the operations of the main unit’s operating  
keys. This not only enhances operating efficiency,  
but also allows standard operations to be performed  
even at a distance separated from the main unit.  
See page 29 for information on function key settings.  
Some front panel control buttons are assigned to  
shortcut keys. Shortcut key assignments are  
described on page 88.  
[Operation]  
The various operating settings are performed using  
the buttons on the main unit’s front panel, as well as  
the remote control unit and optional mouse/  
keyboard.  
1 Front panel buttons  
The numeric keys on the keyboard provide the same  
functions as the numeric buttons on the remote  
control unit. During title text and other text input, any  
functions assigned to the keyboard’s normal function  
keys are disabled.  
MOUSE/KEYBOARD jacks  
Note 2:  
Mouse and keyboard are not provided, and must be  
purchased separately.  
4 Keyboard  
Note 3:  
2 Remote control unit  
3 Mouse  
Title text and other text inputs require the use of a  
keyboard. The purchase and implementation of a keyboard  
is recommended.  
7 Operations using remote control unit  
The furnished remote control unit has been designed  
primarily for video playback control, including  
emulation operations before recording images from  
HDD to DVD media, and when playing DVD-Video  
discs. The remote control unit can also be used to  
make Function Menu settings.  
Note 4:  
Certain special keys (“Play” etc.) found on commercially  
available keyboards may not be used.  
Note 5:  
A connected keyboard or mouse may not be recognized  
during the power on and booting operation. In this event,  
try disconnecting and then reconnecting the mouse or  
keyboard. If the USB port cannot be accessed due to a  
specific kind of rack mounting, a USB hub can be attached  
to solve this symptom. If a USB hard disk drive is not  
recognized, or if operation is unstable, change to a hub  
supporting USB 2.0.  
Note 1:  
The remote control unit cannot be used to turn power ON/  
OFF or to perform recording operations.

[Recording Functions] (Operation Details: page 33)  
• In addition to composite video, S-video, DV and RCA connectors, this unit is equipped with connectors for  
component video and XLR, thus providing support of connections to professional video components. In this  
way, RS-422A, IEEE1394, and LTC (linear time code) connectors can be used to support recording compliant  
with time code information.  
• Video and audio inputs are recorded to HDD or DVD-R/RW media while being converted to data compliant  
with the DVD-Video format.  
• During recording, manual chapter setting can be performed, as well as automated chapter insertion at 3, 5,  
10, 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals.  
Notes :  
∞ Playback video/audio signals are delayed approximately 4 seconds from the input signal due to time required  
for encoding and decoding.  
∞ Recording will not begin when copy guard protected signals are input.  
∞ When DVD drive is selected as the recording destination, the EJECT button is disabled during use of the  
preview function.  
∞ When recording to DVD media, at the end of a recording, from several to several dozen seconds will be  
required to complete the disc writing process. If an attempt is made to restart recording during this period,  
the actual recording cannot begin until the disc writing process is completed.  
∞ Up to 99 chapter marks can be designated per title (clip); regardless of the insertion method, however, no  
more than 99 chapters can be inserted.  
∞ When chapter marks are inserted by pressing the Enter key on a keyboard, if the Enter key is held  
depressed, multiple consecutive chapter marks may be inserted.  
∞ Chapter mark positions are inserted in units of 12 frames (PAL) or 15 frames (NTSC).  
∞ When using the Edit List (EDL) function, at the final IN/OUT point setting, the APP section = [Auto  
Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] = [Record As] command must be set to “Title (Stop)”.  
∞ Recordings cannot be made directly to the USB HDD.  
[Play Functions] (Operation Details: page 45)  
• Perform playback of clips recorded on DVD-Video discs or in projects recorded on hard disk drive, with  
video/audio being output to all output connectors.  
• During recording to hard disk drive, time shift playback can be used to play the recorded contents from  
beginning.  
Notes :  
∞ When using DVD-Video time search, playback may begin at a point somewhat shifted from the actually  
designated time number.  
∞ Depending on the structure of the DVD-Video used, some errors may occurs when time search is  
performed for time numbers located in a range extending from several frames before to several frames after  
the divisions between titles and chapters.  
∞ Some recorded DVD-Video discs may not playback properly.  
∞ When a copy-protected DVD media is played back, if recording is performed, no signal will be output to DV,  
even if DV output is set to “Enabled”.  
∞ When DV output is “Enabled”, pressing the PLAY button on the front panel or remote control unit will  
cause playback to begin after about five seconds.  
∞ During time shift playback, the PLAY button enable start time is different depending on video encode rate  
and audio encoding method.

When connecting the UPS to the PRV-LX10, be sure  
to disconnect the power to the PRV-LX10 first, and  
use the cord supplied with the UPS to connect the  
two units. If the connection is made after the PRV-  
LX10 has booted up, the shut-down operation may  
not occur properly.  
Before using the unit with a UPS, be sure to consult  
the operating instructions accompanying the UPS  
product.  
Note:  
The Delete and Format commands provided with  
the unit do not completely delete all data on a  
hard disk.  
Thus discarding or transferring a USB HDD to a  
third party when hard disk data has been deleted  
using these functions runs the risk of placing  
backed up image data into the wrong hands. To  
prevent such a risk, use commercially available  
software to wipe the hard disk clean or request  
a dealer to do so. Consult your USB HDD  
manufacturer for details.

Recording  
The recording function involves inputting video/audio  
signals from a VTR or other video playback device  
(“external VTR”), converting those signals to data  
compatible with the DVD video format, and recording  
that data on the hard disk or a DVD-R/RW disc. A  
playback video/audio signal is simultaneously output. If  
the SET UP section = [Operation] = [Video  
Settings] = [Composite Out] is set to “Source  
Monitor”, the input image will be passed through  
during recording as well (see page 32). In addition, in  
the event this command is set to “Decoder Out”, the  
output signal will be the encoded/decoded version of  
the original input video/audio signal.  
Selecting the TV System Mode  
Select the TV system mode for recording. When [TV  
System] is selected on the STATUS section of the  
Function Menu, the selectable TV systems are  
displayed. Using the CURSOR button and ENTER  
button, select either “NTSC” or “PAL”. When  
changing from the currently selected system, a  
confirmation dialogue box will be displayed.  
Note 1:  
The playback video signal is delayed about 4 seconds  
with respect to the input signal due to the time  
required for encoding and decoding.  
Note 2:  
Recording will not begin if a copy-guard protected  
input signal is detected.  
Note 3:  
If [Composite Out] is set to “Source Monitor”  
(pass-through output), when OSD is set to ON during  
recording, the video and audio will switch to  
“Decoder Out” (encode/decode output).  
Note 4:

this case, “LPCM” (see page 37) cannot be selected  
as the audio encoding method.  
When “PAL” is selected as the TV system, only 1  
[Component] type will be available.  
Also, DV audio format auto-sensing is performed in  
the case of the following settings, with the result  
that recording and preview are disabled during the 2

Recording  
When a disc is removed before finalizing, the data  
recorded so far remains on the hard disk. A new  
project is automatically created when this disc is  
reinserted and additional data that is recorded is  
saved to this project. Thus data recorded prior to  
removal and data recorded after reinsertion are  
saved to different projects.  
Selecting Recording Destination  
The currently selected recording destination (also the  
playback source) will be displayed on the front  
panel’s central indicator (DVD1, DVD2, HDD  
indicator). The [Drive] command on the Function  
Menu’s STATUS section also indicates the currently  
selected recording destination/playback source. Use  
the front panel’s DRIVE SELECT button, or the  
[Drive] command in the Function Menu’s STATUS  
section to select the recording destination. However,  
note that the DRIVE SELECT button is disabled  
during display of the Function Menu.  
Note:  
When a disc is inserted and a recording is made,  
[Record To] setting can no longer be changed.  
The [Record To] setting is saved for each drive and  
can be changed when drive selection changed.  
When the “HDD” is selected, recording to  
performed to HDD only. And either “DVD1” or  
“DVD2”, or “DVD1&2” can be selected as the  
recording destination.  
When “DVD&HDD” is selected using the EDIT  
section = [Project] = [Record/Name] = [Record

When recording to hard disk drive, this recorder  
performs internal management of recorded data  
(clips) in units called “projects.” Multiple clips (up to  
a maximum of 255) can be recorded in a single  
project, and so long as a project is not changed, clips  
can be recorded continuously within a single project.  
When you wish to classify your recorded data in  
multiple groups, change the project by using the  
[Project] command on the STATUS section, and  
continue recording.

Preview Function  
Starting and Stopping Recording  
Recording can be started and stopped either  
manually or automatically.  
The PREVIEW button on the front panel, or the SET  
UP section = [Recording] = Preview button  
makes it possible to check the result of encoding/  
decoding of the video/audio input signals without  
making a recording to DVD discs or hard disks.  
In the idling condition, press either the PREVIEW  
button, or on the Function Menu’s SET UP section  
= [Recording] command, press the Preview  
button. The elected input preview image/sound (after  
encoding and decoding) will be produced at all  
output connectors. Also, while viewing the preview,  
if the PREVIEW button or the STOP button is  
pressed (or if the mouse’s left and right buttons are  
clicked simultaneously), the unit will return to the  
idling condition or the Function Menu.  
Note 1:  
Recording automatically stops whenever the  
recording destination runs out of recording capacity.  
Also, recording will not start if the medium has no  
recording space available. When recording to DVD,  
recording will not begin after 99 titles have been  
recorded to a single disc, even if the disc has  
recording capacity remaining. When performing  
continuous recording to hard disk drive, a single clip  
can contain a maximum of 100 hours of recording  
time.  
Note:  
When recording to DVD, if the unit is left in the  
recording standby mode for 1 hour or more, the unit  
will automatically switch to STOP mode to prevent  
damage to the system.  
When DVD drive is selected as the recording  
destination, the EJECT button is disabled during  
use of the preview function.  
1 Manual Recording  
Starting and stopping manual recording is performed  
with the front panel’s REC and STOP buttons.  
During recording, the PAUSE button can be  
pressed to temporarily interrupt the recording. From  
the pause mode, press REC button again to resume  
recording, and the recording will be a continuous part  
of the clip (title) begun before the pause. During  
recording, the front panel’s REC button will light,  
and during the pause mode, both the REC and  
PAUSE buttons will light.  
Note 2:  
Even if the SET UP section = [Operation] =  
[Video Settings] = [DV OUT] command is enabled,  
no signal is output from the DV connector during use  
of the preview function.  
When manual chapter mark insertion is selected,  
chapter marks can be entered at desired locations by  
using the main unit’s front panel ENTER button, the  
remote control unit’s ENTER button, or the Enter  
key on a connected keyboard. A chapter mark is also  
inserted when the PAUSE button is used to set the  
unit to recording standby. If automatic chapter mark  
insertion has been selected, a chapter mark will be  
inserted automatically after each set interval. In this  
case, no chapter mark will be inserted at a recording  
pause position. The session from recording start to  
recording stop will be considered an independent  
title (clip).  
Executing Preview command on SET UP section

Note 1:  
When the STOP button is used to terminate  
recording, between several and several dozen  
seconds (when recording to DVD) are required to  
completely stop recording after the button is  
pressed. Recording cannot be restarted until after  
this operation is completed. During the period after  
the STOP button is pressed until recording stops  
completely, the STOP button will flash.  
Also, when performing recording to an unused or  
full-blank formatted DVD-RW disc, more time may  
be required until STOP is completed.

2 Automatic Recording  
RS-422A or IEEE1394 interface protocols can be  
used to control an external VTR and perform  
automated recording.  
7 Recording Using IN/OUT Points Setting  
On the Function Menu’s APP section, use the  
[Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] = [IN/OUT  
Point] command to set the time code for the IN and  
OUT points. When the Function Menu’s REC button  
is then pressed, the external VTR is automatically  
rewound to a position just preceding the selected IN  
point, and recording starts automatically from that  
point. When the designated OUT point is detected,  
the unit automatically enters the REC pause/stop  
mode.  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point]  
= [Preroll Time]  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] =  
[Offset (Frame)]  
The APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT  
Point] = [Record As] command allows designation of  
whether recording enters the REC pause mode, or  
stops completely when the OUT point is detected.  
When “Chapter (Pause)” is selected, the command  
also permits the insertion of a chapter mark at that  
point. When manual chapter mark insertion has been  
previously selected, optional chapter marks can be  
inserted by pressing the ENTER button during  
recording.  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point]  
= [IN/OUT Point]  
The preroll time preceding the IN point can be  
changed from between 1 to 10 seconds before the  
point by using the Function Menu’s APP section =  
[Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] = [Preroll Time]  
command. The time code delay compensation  
(offset) can be set to from 0 to –30 frames by using  
the APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT  
Point] = [Offset (Frame)] command.  
Note:  
Frame accuracy during use of the auto recording  
function is as follows:  
SET UP section = [Operation]

In order to match the phase with the input time  
code, the preroll should be set to about five seconds.  
The preroll value must be corrected using the source  
side component.

Recording  
When automatic chapter mark insertion has been  
selected, however, a chapter mark is inserted  
automatically at regular intervals; in this case, even if  
“Chapter (Pause)” is designated, no chapter mark  
will be inserted when the unit enters the REC pause  
mode. The session from recording start to recording  
stop will be considered an independent title (clip).  
During recording, the playback video/audio signal will  
be output, but when recording is completed, the  
screen will return to the Function Menu display.  
7 Edit List (EDL) Recording  
The Edit List (EDL) function allows automated  
recording of consecutive multiple IN/OUT points by  
setting the points on an Edit List (EDL). This recorder  
allows formation of an Edit List by using the  
contents set with the Function Menu’s APP section  
= [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] command. By  
pressing the Add to EDL button, the IN/OUT points  
set are added to the edit list.  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [Chapter Point]  
Settings for Automatic Recording  
When using an external VTR with automatic  
recording, the Function Menu’s SET UP section =  
[Operation] = [Control Settings] command allows  
independent settings to be made for the command  
line and time-code acquisition for controlling the  
external VTR. To perform automatic recording, set  
the SET UP section = [Operation] = [Control  
Settings] = [Control] command to “Local”.  
The SET UP section = [Operation] = [Control  
Settings] = [Port] command allows setting of the  
command line to “RS-422A” or “Disabled” (or  
“IEEE1394”). When the external VTR cannot be  
controlled (such as a VTR with only an LTC output),  
set settings to “Disabled” and start VTR playback  
manually from before the IN point to record  
according to the entered time-code.  
Use the SET UP section = [Operation] = [Control  
Settings] = [Time Code] command to set the time  
code line to either “RS-422A” or “LTC” (or  
“IEEE1394”).  
When “DV” is selected as input, the “IEEE1394”  
interface is added to the possible selections.  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point]  
Adding to EDL  
After construction of an edit list, or after loading a  
previously recorded edit list, pressing the Function  
Menu’s APP section = [Auto Capture] = [EDL  
Command] = EDL REC button will cause recording  
to be performed automatically in accordance with  
the constructed list. In accordance with the recorded  
IN/OUT points, the external VTR is automatically  
rewound to the designated IN point, and recording  
begins automatically. When a designated OUT point  
is detected, the unit automatically enters the REC  
pause/stop mode.  
By using the APP section = [Auto Capture] =  
[Chapter Point] command to record chapter point  
settings in an edit list, not only REC pause positions,  
but chapter marks can also be inserted at optional  
points.  
The session from recording start to recording stop  
will be considered an independent title (clip). During  
recording, the playback video/audio signals are  
output, but when recording ends, the screen reverts  
to the Function Menu display.

Recording  
If chapter points are set and recorded after earlier  
Eject Setting  
setting and recording multiple IN/OUT points, the  
chapter points will be added as an additional record  
at the end of the edit list, and thus must be changed  
to their proper order.  
The operation performed at time of eject can be set  
using the [Eject Setting] command on the SETUP  
section’s [Operation] = [Control Setting] menu.  
When set to “Eject”, the disc will be ejected  
immediately without finalization even during  
recording.  
When set to “Finalize&Eject”, when the eject  
command is received from an external controller at  
the remote control (RS-422A/IEEE1394), the disc will  
be finalized, and then ejected.  
Also, when using the front panel controls to eject a  
disc, if the drive for the EJECT button pressed is  
the same as the drive selected with the DRIVE  
SELECT button, a dialog box will appear asking  
whether you wish to finalize the disc.  
Editing the Edit List  
The contents that can be recorded on the edit list  
with this recorder are as follows:  
The contents set with the APP section = [Auto  
Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] and [Chapter Point]  
commands are added to the edit list by pressing the  
Add to EDL button.  
Also, the APP section = [Auto Capture] = [EDL  
Command] command can be used to add disc  
finalize and initialize commands and wait functions to  
the edit list as well. The wait function can be used to  
place EDL recording in REC pause mode when  
necessary, for example, to change the recording  
source’s VTR tape during EDL recording.  
Note:  
APP section = [Auto Capture] = [EDL]  
Note:  
When recording the edit list, the final IN/OUT point  
setting must be as follows: APP section = [Auto  
Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] = [Record As]  
command must be set to “Title(Stop)”.  
When recording to DVD, if the unit is left in the  
recording standby mode for 1 hour or more, the unit  
will automatically switch to STOP mode to prevent  
damage to the system.

2 Canceling finalization  
Recording to DVD Discs  
Finalization can be canceled by selecting the EDIT  
section = [DVD Disc] = [Unfinalize] command.  
The PRV-LX10 can only canceling finalization discs  
that it has been finalized on the PRV-LX10 or PRV-  
LX1.  
Data can be recorded on an unused or not finalized  
DVD-R or DVD-RW disc.  
A finalized DVD-RW disc must be initialized or  
finalization must be canceled before reuse.  
Finalization cannot be canceled for two drives  
simultaneously.  
Note:  
The DVD menu information is lost when a disc is  
canceled finalization. When a disc has been canceled  
Finalization, use the EDIT section = [DVD Menu]  
command to set the DVD menu again.  
1 Disc initialization  
Use the EDIT section = [DVD Disc] = [Initialize]  
command to initialize DVD-RW discs. Select  
“Quick Format” or “Full Blank” (all previously  
recorded material is erased). “Full Blank” takes  
30 minutes to 1 hour to complete.

7 Notes for Simultaneous Recording on Two  
Drives  
÷ Two discs removed simultaneously from each  
drive before finalization can be reloaded for  
simultaneous additional recording.  
EDIT section = [DVD Disc] = [Unfinalize] = [Unfinalize]  
÷ Reselecting a drive makes it possible to cancel  
simultaneous recording and continue recording on  
one drive. Simultaneous recording cannot be  
resumed after this. Menus, chapter names and  
clip names can be edited after selecting one drive.  
Note that resuming a simultaneous recording  
after this will delete all edited data.  
÷ Finalized discs that are canceled finalization  
cannot be used for simultaneous recording.  
7 Precautions When Saving Data to Hard Disk  
Removing a disc before finalization when a recording  
is made both to a DVD disc and the hard disk (see  
page 35), the data recorded until the disc is removed  
remains on the hard disk. A new project is  
automatically created when this disc is reinserted  
and additional data that is recorded is saved to this  
project. Thus data recorded prior to removal and data  
recorded after reinsertion is saved to different  
projects.

When playing discs on this unit, the program on a  
loaded DVD-Video disc, or the clips recorded as a  
project on the hard disk drive are played back and  
the video/audio signals output to all output  
connectors. However, when playing DVD-Video discs  
equipped with copy-guard copy protection, playback  
signals will not be output to the DV connector nor to  
other digital video output connectors.  
Playing DVD-Video Discs (including  
commercially available software titles)  
Begin playback of a DVD disc inserted in the  
currently selected drive by pressing the PLAY  
button on the front panel or remote control unit. Stop  
playback by pressing the STOP button on the front  
panel or remote control unit.  
If a mouse is installed, play can also be controlled  
from the playback control bar displayed by  
Selecting Playback Source  
simultaneously pressing both buttons of the mouse.  
When a DVD disc has been set for fast play, follow  
the instructions to begin playback automatically upon  
insertion of the disc. When “DVD1” or “DVD1&2”  
is designated, “DVD1” is used. To playback discs on  
drive 2, “DVD2” must be designated as the playback  
source. During playback, controls on the front panel  
and remote control unit act to navigate the DVD in  
accordance with the disc’s commands.  
The currently selected playback source (also the  
recording destination) will be displayed on the front  
panel’s central indicator (DVD1, DVD2, HDD  
indicator). The [Drive] command on the Function  
Menu’s STATUS section also indicates the currently  
selected recording destination/playback source. Use  
the front panel’s DRIVE SELECT button, or the  
[Drive] command on the Function Menu’s STATUS  
section to select the recording destination.

External Sync Function  
Other Functions  
The PRV-LX10 can use an externally input sync signal  
(black burst) in order to synchronize the output video  
signal to an external signal (during DVD disc  
playback).  
The Function Menu’s SET UP section =  
[Operation] = [Video Settings] = [Test Signal]  
command can be used to output a test pattern  
signal. To turn off the test pattern, press the STOP  
button or the FUNCTION button, or if a mouse is  
connected, click both right and left buttons  
simultaneously.  
This function allows switching of the video without  
the need for connecting a time base corrector (TBC)  
component, thus allowing video switching without  
distortion (V roll) of the TV monitor’s image.  
When the SET UP section = [Operation] = [Video  
Settings] = [DV OUT] command is set to  
“Enabled”, [External Sync] is automatically set to  
“Disabled”. Thereafter, even if [DV OUT] is  
returned to the “Disabled” setting, external sync  
will remain off, so manual resetting is required.  
When synchronizing two or more recorders  
When inputting sync signal from one sync  
generator to two or more recorders:  
Be sure to set the final recorder’s termination  
switch to ON, and the other recorders’  
termination switches to OFF.  
When applying sync to a single recorder, set the  
termination switch to ON.  
SET UP section = [Operation] = [Video Settings]  
= [Test Signal]  
Caution:  
The external sync function is applicable only to DVD disc playback.  
The black burst sub-carrier component is not locked.  
During the approximate 5 seconds until the external sync signal is locked, the  
image at each video output connector will be distorted.  
Input the external sync signal before beginning DVD playback. The signal will  
not operate if input after playback has begun.

Regarding Progressive Scan Output  
This unit allows the output of progressive scan video  
signals from the component output connector. To  
turn progressive scan output ON/OFF, press the  
controls on the front panel:  
Press these buttons simultaneously.  
Note 1:  
Switching is only possible during idling.  
Note 2:  
Be sure the unit is connected to a television monitor  
supporting progressive-scan. Proper image  
reproduction will not be produced with other  
monitors.  
Note 3:  
When progressive output is ON, image signals will  
not be produced from output connectors other than  
the component output connector.  
Note 4:  
Some progressive scan monitors currently available  
do not possess complete compatibility with the PRV-  
LX10, with the result that some image distortion  
may occur. If such distortion is observed during  
progressive scan playback, set the PRV-LX10’s  
output to interlaced.  
Note 5:  
Progressive is supported during NTSC output only.

DVD Menu Editing  
This unit is equipped with a number of DVD menu  
layouts that are selected with the Function Menu’s  
EDIT section = [DVD Menu] command, and  
associated with a recorded image for convenient  
production of DVD-Video discs.  
The constructed menu will be the same TV system  
(NTSC or PAL) as that currently selected. Opening  
clip and idle clip can be set only for HDD projects. A  
total of 1GB (about 10 minutes at highest rate) can  
be set. However, even if the same clip is selected,  
the total will be computed as separate clips.  
The DVD menu data set here is reflected in [Make  
Disc], [Make Image] and [Finalize] command.  
DVD Menu Type Selection  
Use the Function Menu’s EDIT section = [DVD  
Menu] = [Menu Type/Font] = [Menu Type]  
command to select whether to make the DVD menu  
a title menu, chapter menu, to add no menu, or a  
title & chapter menu.  
Regarding the title and chapter menus: when a title  
is selected on the title menu, that title’s chapter  
menu will be displayed. In this case, depending on  
the design, a button may be added to the chapter  
menu for direct access to the title menu. However, if  
only one chapter exists within the title, no chapter  
menu will be created.  
Also, by using the save to default menu and read  
commands, the menu data for the currently selected  
project can be saved to the default DVD menu, or  
read from the default DVD menu.  
The default DVD menu is always used for new  
projects. A standard menu can be registered as the  
default DVD menu for efficient production of DVD  
discs without having to edit menus each time.  
The preview and disc emulation functions can be  
used to confirm the contents before burning a DVD  
disc. Also, if the playback mode is field playback,  
output will be for one field only, and menu characters  
may not appear correctly.

Customizing the DVD Menu  
Using the Function Menu’s EDIT section = [DVD  
Menu] = [Menu Modification] command, it is  
possible to change the background image and  
highlight colors of the DVD menu currently being  
edited. With this unit, a number of background  
images are used, and when the EDIT section =  
[DVD Menu] = [Menu Modification] =  
[Background] command is used to select “HDD  
Library”, the EDIT section = [DVD Menu] =  
[Menu Modification] = [Image] command can be  
used to select a background image (this operation is  
performed in the same way as for button layout  
pattern).  
Note:  
The color of characters for titles and other items used  
on menus are fixed for each design style. As a result,  
if the background image is changed, foreground  
characters may become difficult to see onscreen.  
Likewise, choice of design may make menu buttons  
invisible or difficult to see. Use the preview or disc  
emulation functions to confirm the appearance.

Project Editing  
This recorder manages recorded image data (clips)  
by the unit of “project.” A single project can  
preserve multiple clips, and so long as the project is  
not changed, the numerous clips are preserved as a  
continuous series within the project.  
It is possible to include both PAL and NTSC clips  
within a single project. In order to discriminate the  
different modes, an [P] or [N] is affixed to the head  
of list displays containing clips, or projects containing  
clips, that differ from the currently selected TV  
system. This display is used only for discriminating  
the two kinds, however, and is not reflected in the  
actual file names (during menu creation, etc.).  
EDIT section = [Project] = [Record/Name]  
[N] project exists on the STATUS section’s [Project] menu  
Changing project name on EDIT section  
= [Project] = [Record/Name] = [Name]  
Note 1:  
To change project names, connect a keyboard to the  
MOUSE/KEYBOARD USB jack.  
The [Protect] command allows locking of the clips  
within a project to prevent deletion.  
[N] clip exists on the EDIT section’s [Title]  
= [Target Clip] = [Edit To (HDD)] menu  
The Function Menu’s EDIT section = [Project] =  
[Record/Name] command can be used to confirm  
the number of clips, the project size, and the number  
of titles within the currently selected project.  
Further, when a keyboard is connected, the EDIT  
section = [Project] = [Record/Name] = [Name]  
command can be used to change the name of the  
currently selected project.

Project Editing  
Recorded data is also managed as a project when  
recording directly to DVD disc, but editing is not  
possible in this case.  
By using the EDIT section = [Project] = [Record/  
Name] = [Record To] command to select “DVD &  
HDD”, the recorded images will be preserved on the  
hard disk drive even after finalizing and removal of  
the DVD, thus allowing later editing if desired.  
Note 2:  
When a disc is removed before finalizing, the data  
recorded so far remains on the hard disk. A new  
project is automatically created when this disc is  
reinserted and additional data that is recorded is  
saved to this project. Thus data recorded prior to  
removal and data recorded after reinsertion are  
saved to different projects.  
EDIT section = [Project] = [Copy Project]  
= [Copy To]  
Copying Clips  
Use the EDIT section = [Project] = [Copy Clip]  
command to copy clip in project specified by [Source  
Drive] command to currently selected project.  
“HDD”, “DVD1” and “DVD2” can be selected.  
EDIT section = [Project] = [Record/Name]  
= [Record to]  
Copying a Project  
Using EDIT section = [Project] = [Copy Clip] =  
Using the EDIT section = [Project] = [Copy  
Project] command, the currently selected project  
can be copied to a new project.  
[Source Drive] for selecting drives  
The project name that automatically appears in the  
EDIT Section’s [Project] = [Copy Project] = [Copy  
To] command will be affixed with a numeral to  
distinguish it from the current default project (for  
example, “cX” + current project name, where the  
“X” is a numeral). When the project copy command  
is executed, the copied project name appear with  
the automatically changed numeral. However, this  
automatically processing will not be performed if the  
project name has been changed.  
Note:

Project Editing  
The copied clip will be appended to the end of the  
project. You can choose whether to record the  
copied clip as the title. However, if 99 titles have  
already been recorded, the clip cannot be recorded  
as another title.  
An asterisk “*” will be appended to the front of the  
name of the copied clip.  
If the addition of “*” makes the clip name 33 one-  
byte characters or longer, the last characters are  
automatically truncated.  
If the clip has a size exceeding 1 Gbyte, it will be  
output as multiple files. The actually output file  
names will be the name set with [VOB Name]  
command, followed by consecutive number +  
extension (vob). (Example: expt000_001.vob)  
Note:  
Do not use the FTP during recording since the  
system may become unstable.  
Note :  
When “DVD1” or “DVD2” is selected as [Source]  
during copying clip, the content is not updated when  
a disc is inserted. Select the drive using [Source]  
again after disc insertion.  
Renaming a Clip  
Using the [Project] = [Rename Clip] command on  
the EDIT Section, the clip name of the currently  
selected project can be changed. The clip name  
entered here will be reflected on the text for buttons  
when the DVD menu type is made the title menu. In  
fact, the number of characters that can be  
embedded in the menu will differ depending on the  
design. Also, depending on the design, excessive  
characters may be omitted. Always use the preview  
function to confirm results.  
Executing Export command on EDIT section  
= [Project] = [Export]  
Deleting a Project  
Projects are not automatically deleted, but preserved  
within the hard disk drive. When the available space  
on the HDD becomes low, use the EDIT section =  
[Project] = [Delete] command to select and delete  
unneeded projects in order to open up space on the  
drive.  
Using EDIT section = [Project] = [Rename clip] = [Clip 3]  
Exporting VOB Files  
EDIT section = [Project] = [Delete]  
Using the [Project] = [Export] command on the  
EDIT Section, clips within the currently selected  
project can be exported and saved as a VOB file with  
an individualizing name. The file name can be input  
using the [VOB Name] command, and saved in the  
vob folder accessible via FTP.  
Note 1:  
A project that is currently being edited cannot be  
erased.  
Note 2:  
Projects with protected clips cannot be deleted (see  
page 67).  
The [VOB Name] command provides the default file  
name “exptXXX”; each time the command is  
executed, the number (XXX) is incremented.  
However, this automatic operation is not supported if  
[VOB Name] is edited.

Disc Duplication  
This unit provides a function for duplicating discs.  
Disc-to-disc duplication can be performed by  
connecting another DVD drive. This function can be  
done on a single drive by creating an image file from  
a disc and using this file to create a new disc. Image  
files imported via FTP (uploading) can also be used to  
create discs (uploaded image files are saved to the  
imagefiles folder). See page 72 for information on  
FTP connection.  
Note 1:  
Copyright protected content cannot be duplicated or  
used to create image files. The copying of  
copyrighted materials requires the permission of the  
copyright holder and neighboring rights holder.  
Failure to obtain the permission of each rights holder  
can be punished by law. Pioneer accepts no liability  
whatever for problems arising between the user of  
this device and any rights holder.  
Using APP section = [Cpy/Impt/Bkup] = [Disc Copy]  
to select Destination  
Note 2:  
The time required for disc duplication and creating  
image files depend on disc read/write performance.

Impt/Bkup] = [Disc Image Copy] = [Source]  
command to specify the disc to be used in creating  
an image file. Use the [Input Image Name]  
command to enter the file name. The file is saved  
under the entered file name to the imagefiles folder,  
a folder that can be accessed via FTP. The disc  
cannot be removed until the image file has been  
created.  
Creating Discs from Image Files  
Use the Function Menu’s APP section = [Cpy/  
Impt/Bkup] = [Image Copy/Del] = [Source]  
command to specify image file to be copied and use  
the [Destination] command to specify the disc to  
write the file to. The [Source] command displays all  
the files saved in the imagefiles folder (a folder  
accessed using FTP).  
Note:  
Image files that are 4.7 GB or larger cannot be  
copied to disc.

command to specify the disc whose image files are  
to be deleted. The [Source] command displays all  
the files saved in the imagefiles folder (a folder  
accessed using FTP).  
Note:  
Formatting a hard disk (see “HDD Tools” on page  
31) deletes all image files on the disk.  
Using APP section = [Cpy/Impt/Bkup] = [Disc Image Copy]

Note 1:  
For characters usable in the names of image files,  
see section “About File Names” (page 94).  
Note 2:  
When the [Input Image Name] command is used, it  
automatically displays a default name that does not  
equal duplicate an already existing file name  
(example: dscXXXXX.img, where the “X” represent  
numbers). When file creation is executed, the new  
file name will be displayed with the numerals  
automatically modified. However, once an image file  
name has been changed, it cannot be handled by  
automatic processing.

Importing Image Data, Edit Lists  
This function allows the importing of image data  
from CD/DVD discs, or a web browser with FTP  
connection from a computer linked to an online  
network. These images can be then stored in the  
recorder’s menu library for use as DVD menu layout  
images and DVD menu background images. Edit list  
files can be similarly imported.  
When using FTP to download images from the  
Internet, go to the SET UP section = [System] =  
[Network] command and confirm that network is set  
to “ON”. Also, The displayed IP address will be the  
connection destination. The user name and

Following establishment of FTP connection, store  
files relating to the DVD menu in the menu folder;  
files regarding edit lists should be stored in the EDL  
folder.  
Files obtained via FTP from the network are  
temporarily stored in the hard disk drive’s Import  
Directory; then, the “Import Directory” is  
designated using the Function Menu’s APP section  
[Cpy/Impt/Bkup] = [Menu Import] = [Source]  
command; the files to be added to the menu library  
are selected, and the Add to Library button is  
pressed to begin importing. The same procedure is  
used for importing Edit List files. When “DVD1” or  
“DVD2” is designated as the source, import is  
begun from the disc loaded in the respective drive  
when the Add to Library button is pressed.  
APP section = [Cpy/Impt/Bkup] = [Menu Import]

Backing Up/Restoring USB HDDs  
Projects, image files, menu libraries, EDL data and  
Backing Up  
System settings on the internal hard disk (HDD) can  
be backed up on an external hard disk (USB HDD)  
and data backed up on the external hard disk can be  
restored to the internal hard disk.  
Use the APP section = [Cpy/Impt/Bkup] =  
[Backup] command to back up data. Use the [Type]  
and [Target] commands to select the data types and  
files to be backed up and press the Backup button  
to start. Select “ALL” on [Target] command to  
process all files.  
Projects and other data backed up on the USB HDD  
can be deleted to free up space on the hard disk (Note 2)  
.
Note 1:  
To prevent failure during backing up or restoring  
data, avoid simultaneous use of FTP and the USB  
HDD during these processes.  
Note 2:  
Use the [System] = [HDD Tools] = [Target Drive]  
command to specify the USB HDD and check free  
disk space.  
Since disk space is calculated using the formula  
1 GB = 1024 x 1024 x 1024 bytes,  
actual disk space is somewhat less than the  
indicated figure. However, space on unformatted  
USB HDD is indicated as [ – – GB].  
Note 3:  
APP section

[Type]  
The time required for backing up and restoring  
depends on the amount of data on the hard disk. As  
a rule, it takes about 3 minutes for 1 GB of data.  
However, the state of the connection between the  
unit and the USB HDD may slow down the process.  
Connecting a USB HDD  
Turn off the unit and make sure it is in standby mode  
before connecting the USB HDD. Turn on the USB  
HDD and the unit.  
Note 1:  
Unit operation may become unstable when the USB  
HDD is connected or disconnected during unit  
operation. To ensure stable operation, do not  
connect or disconnect the USB connectors during  
unit operation.

Note 2:  
Do not connect two or more USB HDDs to the unit.  
Formatting  
A new USB HDD must be formatted before use.  
Note that also USB HDDs labeled “Formatted” must  
be formatted before use. See “HDD Tools” on page  
31 for information on how to format and check a  
USB HDD.  
Note:  
Executing Backup command on APP section =

Backing Up/Restoring USB HDDs  
Restoring  
Note:  
Use the APP section = [Cpy/Impt/Bkup] =  
[Restore/Del] command to restore data. Use the  
[Type] and [Target] commands to select the data  
types and files to be restored and press the  
Restore button to start. Select “ALL” on [Target]  
command to process all files.  
The Delete and Format functions provided with  
the unit do not allow you to completely delete all  
data on a hard disk. Thus discarding or  
transferring a USB HDD to a third party when  
hard disk data has been deleted using these  
functions runs the risk of placing backed up  
image data into the wrong hands. To prevent  
such a risk, use commercially available software  
to wipe the disk clean or request a dealer to do  
so. Consult your USB HDD manufacturer for  
details.  
Removing a USB HDD  
Turn off the unit and make sure it is in standby mode  
before disconnecting and turning off the USB HDD.  
Note:  
Executing Restore command on APP section  
[Cpy/Impt/Bkup] [Restore/Del]  
=
Never disconnect the USB cable, turn off the USB  
HDD or turn off the main power switch on the rear  
panel of the unit during backing up, restoring or  
deleting data as this may not only leave invalid data  
on the disc, but damage the hard disk. Invalid data  
can only be removed by formatting the disc.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
Incorrect operations can be mistaken as malfunctions. If you believe the unit is not operating correctly, consult  
the chart below. Sometimes incorrect operation may be due to a malfunction in another component. If the  
problem is not fixed, check the other components used with the player. If the problem still persists, contact  
your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or dealer for service.  
Symptom  
Cause/Remedy

Check for proper connections.  
Change the video monitor or other input to the input connected to  
the PRV-LX10.  
If a non-progressive-scan video monitor is connected to the  
component video output connector and the Component output  
is set to Progressive (525p), no picture will appear. Hold the  
main unit’s front panel STOP button depressed while pressing  
the cursor down button to switch the output to Interlaced (525i).  
54  
32  
When set to progressive scan (525P), no video image is output  
to connectors other than the component output.  
When [Composite Out] is set to “Source Monitor”, during stop  
mode or otherwise when no image in input to the composite  
input, no image will be output to the composite output  
connector. In the same way no sound will be output at the RCA  
output connectors if no audio is input to the RCA inputs.  
Check your TV system mode setting.  
After closing disc table, it opens  
automatically, or playback will  
not begin.  
Insert the disc correctly in the disc table.  
Insert disc is with correct up-down orientation.  
Clean the disc.

Confirm that the disc region number is proper for the player.  
Confirm that the type of disc is proper for the player.  
Check and eliminate any condensation inside the unit.  
A disc created on the PRV-LX10 that contains many titles may  
take dozens of seconds to recognize when loaded. The DISC  
indicator flashes and the disc recording and playback cannot be  
started during disc recognition.  
Can’t record.  
Confirm that the HDD/DVD have adequate remaining capacity. If  
62, 67  
HDD are full, erase unneeded titles to add available space.  
Confirm that you are not attempting to record copy-protected  
material.  
With DVD-R/RW (video mode) discs, images which are  
designated as “copy once only” cannot be be recorded.  
Check your TV system mode setting.  
Can’t record in video mode on  
DVD-RW.  
Recording to Ver.1.0 DVD-RW discs is not supported. Be sure to  
use discs labeled as Ver.1.1 or later (version number can be  
found on disc jacket).  
Image is elongated vertically or  
horizontally.  
If a disc’s playback image appears elongated vertically or  
horizontally, use the [Aspect] command to change the aspect  
ratio for your video monitor. If the setting cannot be made at the  
recorder, use your video monitor controls.  
50  
External input images are  
distorted.  
When using components that output images encoded with  
analog copy protection signals, connect the component directly  
to the video monitor as well.  
During playback image is  
distorted or dark.  
This unit supports analog copy protection systems. Some discs  
contain analog copy protection signals, and when such discs are  
played through a VTR, or recorded onto a VTR and then played  
back, the copy protection signals may make proper playback  
impossible. For these reasons, the PRV-LX10 should be connected  
directly to the video monitor as well as to other components.  
Cannot playback on DVD player / When discs recorded in video mode are to be played back on

other players, be sure to finalize them after recording (however,  
some discs may be unplayable on other players even after  
finalization).

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
Version 2, June 1991  
Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.  
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA  
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies  
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.  
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION  
AND MODIFICATION  
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains  
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed  
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,  
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"  
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:  
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,  
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another  
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in  
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".  
Preamble  
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your  
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public  
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free  
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This  
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software  
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to  
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by  
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to  
your programs, too.  
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not  
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of  
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program  
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the  
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).  
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not  
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you  
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for  
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it  
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it  
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's  
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you  
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate  
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the  
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;  
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License  
along with the Program.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid  
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.  
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you  
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and  
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.  
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether  
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that  
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the  
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their  
rights.  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion  
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and  
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1  
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:  
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and  
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,  
distribute and/or modify the software.  
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices  
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.  
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in  
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any  
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third  
parties under the terms of this License.  
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain  
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free  
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we  
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so  
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original  
authors' reputations.  
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively  
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such  
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an  
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a  
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide  
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under  
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this  
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but  
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on  
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)  
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software  
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free  
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the  
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any  
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and  
modification follow.

Regarding the GNU General Public License  
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If  
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,  
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in  
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those  
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you  
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based  
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of  
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the  
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.  
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not  
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or  
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are  
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by  
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the  
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and  
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying  
the Program or works based on it.  
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the  
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the  
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to  
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further  
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.  
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to  
this License.  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest  
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to  
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or  
collective works based on the Program.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program  
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of  
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under  
the scope of this License.  
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent  
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),  
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or  
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not  
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot  
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this  
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you  
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent  
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by  
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then  
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to  
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.  
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,  
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of  
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:  
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable  
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1  
and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,  
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three  
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your  
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete  
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be  
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium  
customarily used for software interchange; or,  
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under  
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to  
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other  
circumstances.  
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer  
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is  
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you  
received the program in object code or executable form with such  
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)  
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any  
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any  
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the  
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is  
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made  
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed  
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that  
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing  
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot  
impose that choice.  
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for  
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source  
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any  
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to  
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a  
special exception, the source code distributed need not include  
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary  
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the  
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component  
itself accompanies the executable.  
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to  
be a consequence of the rest of this License.  
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in  
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the  
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License  
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding  
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among  
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates  
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.  
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering  
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent  
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as  
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not  
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.  
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions  
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will  
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to  
address new problems or concerns.  
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program  
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt  
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is  
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.  
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under  
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such  
parties remain in full compliance.  
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program  
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any  
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions  
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free  
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of  
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free  
Software Foundation.

Regarding the GNU General Public License  
10.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free  
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author  
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free  
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes  
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals  
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and  
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.  
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS  
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs  
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest  
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it  
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.  
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest  
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively  
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least  
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.  
NO WARRANTY  
11.BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,  
THERE IS NO WARRANTYFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT  
PERMITTED BYAPPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPTWHEN OTHERWISE  
STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR  
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT  
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,  
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES  
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND  
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITHYOU. SHOULD THE  
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE,YOUASSUME THE COSTOFALL  
NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.  
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>  
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>  
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify  
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by  
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or  
(at your option) any later version.  
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,  
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty  
of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.  
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR  
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR  
ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR  
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE  
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,  
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES  
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE  
PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA  
OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES  
SUSTAINED BYYOU OR THIRD PARTIES ORAFAILURE OF THE  
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITHANYOTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN  
IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF  
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License  
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software  
Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307  
USA  
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.  
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this  
when it starts in an interactive mode:  
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © year name of author  
Gnomovision comes withABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details  
type `show w'.  
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it  
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.  
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the  
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands  
you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they  
could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.  
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your  
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if  
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:  
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program  
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by  
James Hacker.  
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989  
Ty Coon, President of Vice  
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program  
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may  
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the  
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General  
Public License instead of this License.
