FEATURES  
This unit not only plays back DVD and CD, but also offers features for you to record on DVD and edit them after that. The  
following features are offered with this unit.  
Recording  
Compatibility  
Available for playing back discs on a regular DVD player:  
Recorded discs can be played back on regular DVD players,  
including computer DVD drives compatible with DVD-video  
playback. Although DVD+RW/+R are playable on other units  
without finalization in most cases, it is recommended to  
finalize in order to stabilize the performance.  
This unit is compatible with recording on DVD-RW/+RW  
which is recordable repeatedly and DVD-R/+R which accept  
the additional recordings until the disc becomes full but  
not overwritable. You can choose either one for your  
convenience.  
Up to 12 program recording:  
You can program the unit to record up to 12 programs,  
within a month in advance. Daily or weekly program  
recordings are also available.  
Others  
Progressive scan system  
Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan  
system provides less flickering and images in higher  
resolution than that of traditional television signals.

this unit to a display device with an HDMI-compatible port.

be increased by 30 minutes up to 8 hours. The recording  
automatically stops when the recording time you set is  
reached.  
DV dubbing:  
This function helps you to easily dub the contents of the DVC

• The HDMI mode that is not supported by display device will be skipped.  
Copyright protection system  
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the  
display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital  
content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication  
of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device  
(or AV amplifier) for more information.  
Note for HDMI Connection  
• Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate  
properly with this unit.  
• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.  
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; this unit  
can be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.  
• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI  
converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.  
• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur.  
Please check and set the HDMI setting again.

To cancel finalizing...  
Note  
(DVD-RW only)  
• Finalizing a disc in video mode and +VR mode  
automatically creates a title menu.  
Press [STOP C] during the finalizing is in progress. Use  
[K / L] to select “Yes”, then press [ENTER]. Finalizing is  
canceled and the unit switches to stop mode.  
• After you finalize the DVD+RW, you can call up the  
title list by pressing [TOP MENU], or you can call up  
the title menu by pressing [MENU/LIST].  
• Even after DVD+RW is finalized, you can still record  
or edit. After you finalize DVD-RW/-R or DVD+R, you  
cannot edit or record anything else on that disc.  
Do you want to cancel ?  
Yes  
No  
• If you insert a DVD-RW finalized with this unit, “Undo  
Finalization” will appear instead of “Finalize” at  
step 3.  
• To release the finalization of the DVD-RW disc, select  
“Undo Finalization” at step 3.

additional recording onto the disc.  
• DO NOT power off during finalizing. This may result  
in a malfunction.  
• For DVD+RW, if you have added or deleted chapters,  
or made chapters hidden, you must finalize the disc  
before being able to see those effects on other units.  
To play back discs other than DVD+RW on other DVD  
players, you will need to finalize.

Restrictions on Recording  
You can select a recording mode among 5 options, and  
the recording time will depend on the recording mode  
you select as follows.  
You cannot record copy-protected program using this  
unit. Copy-protected video signal is included in DVD-  
videos, some satellite broadcasts, some pay-per-view  
stations and some “premium” stations.  
If copy-protected material is detected, recording will  
pause or stop automatically and an error message  
appears on the screen.

“Copy-once only” video can only be recorded to CPRM  
compatible DVD-RW formatted in VR mode.  
What is “CPRM”?  
CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system  
regarding the recording of “copy-once” broadcast  
programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for  
Recordable Media.  
• The recording times listed above are estimates and are  
for reference purposes only. Actual recording times may  
vary.  
• The audio and video quality of content being recorded  
may differ depending on the recording mode/recording  
time chosen.  
This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can  
record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot  
make another copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings  
can only be made on CPRM compatible DVD-RW formatted  
in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played back  
on DVD players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.  
Note  
Making discs playable in other DVD players (Finalize)  
For DVD-RW/-R, it is necessary to finalize the disc after  
recording, in order to play back the disc on other DVD  
players. (Refer to pages 30-32.) For DVD+RW/+R, it is  
recommended to finalize the disc in order to make the  
disc more compatible to other DVD player. When video  
and +VR mode disc are finalized, a title menu is created.  
You cannot finalize discs in other DVD recorders.  
• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.  
• DVD-RW/-R, DVD+RW/+R and CD-RW/-R recorded on  
a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may  
not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or  
if there is condensation on the player’s lens.  
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even  
if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be  
played back because of the settings of the  
application software used to create the disc. (Check  
with the software publisher for more detailed  
information.)  
• Discs recorded in video mode on this unit cannot  
record additional information using other DVD  
recorders.  
• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit  
rate) method, depending on the picture you are  
recording, the actual remaining time for recording  
may be a little shorter than the remaining time  
displayed on the TV screen.

DV DUBBING  
Note for DV dubbing  
• If you press [PAUSE F] at step 5, the tape will rewind to the point a few seconds preceding the paused point.  
• The unit does not send out the output signal to DVC.  
• For the proper operation, connect DVC to the unit directly. Do not connect this unit and DVC via any other unit.  
• Do not connect more than 1 DVC.  
• The unit can only accept DVC. Other DV device such as cable/satellite box or D-VHS VCR cannot be recognized.  
• If no video signal is detected from the DVC during DVC to DVD dubbing, the recording will be paused and “I” will  
flash on the TV screen. The recording will resume when the unit detects the video signal again.  
• When the DVC is in camera mode, refer to “Guide to DV and On-Screen Display” on page 46.  
• You cannot dub from DVC during timer standby mode.  
• During timer standby of either component, you cannot select L3(DV-IN) even on the component which is not in  
timer standby.  
• Date / time and cassette memory data will not be recorded.  
• Pictures with a copy-guard signal cannot be recorded.  
• A DV terminal is a terminal that can use the transmission mode conforming to the IEEE 1394 standards called “Fire  
Wire”. It serves as the interface that connects the PC and peripheral device such as “i.LINK” (registered trademark  
of SONY). It enables digital dubbing between DV devices with little degradation.

signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital  
“Digital Audio”.  
and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio  
recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with  
digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and  
MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital Audio”.  
Aspect Ratio  
The width of a TV screen relative to its height.  
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen  
is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV  
screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).  
Progressive Scan (480p)  
A type of display that does not split each frame into  
fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines  
of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides less  
flickering and higher image resolution than traditional  
(480i) TV signals. Refer to page 90 for instructions on  
selective progressive scan mode.  
Chapter  
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a  
DVD is usually divided into chapters. See also “Title”.  
Component Video Output  
Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (PB/CB, PR/  
CR) is independent to output so that you can experience  
picture color as it is.  
Also, due to compatibility with progressive video (480p),  
you can experience higher-density picture than that in  
interlace (480i).  
Region Code  
Regions associate discs and players with particular areas  
of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have  
compatible region codes. You can find the region code  
of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are  
compatible with more than one region (or all regions).  
Digital Audio  
Sampling Frequency  
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During  
recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals  
(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-  
to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers.  
On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates  
an analog signal based on these numbers. See also  
“Sampling Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.  
The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval  
to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling  
in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher  
the rate, the better the sound quality.  
S-Video Output  
It delivers independently each signal of color(C) and  
luminance(Y) to TV as video signals, so that higher-quality  
picture will be gained.  
Dolby® Digital  
The system to compress digital sound developed by  
Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or  
multi channel audio.  
Title (DVD only)  
A collection of chapters on DVD. See also “Chapter”.  
DTS® (Digital Theater System)  
Track  
DTS is a multi channel surround sound system. By  
connecting to DTS decoder you can enjoy dynamic and  
realistic sound like movie theatre. DTS surround sound  
technologies were developed by DTS, Inc.  
Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a disc.  
The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also “Chapter”.  
Video mode  
Video mode is the same recording format as used on  
the DVD videos you purchase in local shops. You can  
play back the discs recorded in this format in most DVD  
players, however it offers only limited editing. You will  
need to finalize discs recorded in video mode before  
playing them back on other unit.  
Finalize  
To make DVD, which have been recorded on, possible to  
play back in DVD players.  
HDMI™ (high definition multimedia interface)  
A digital interface between audio and video source. It can  
transmit component video, audio, and control signal with  
one cable connection.  
VR mode  
A basic recording format for DVD-RW. VR mode offers  
advanced editing, however it is playable only on VR  
mode compatible unit. Finalization is recommended  
before playing them back on other unit.  
JPEG (joint photographic experts group)  
JPEG is a method of compressing still image files. You can  
copy JPEG files on CD-RW/-R from a computer and play  
back the files on this unit.  
+VR mode  
A recording format for DVD+RW/+R. +VR mode offers basic  
editing, and it is playable on most DVD players. Finalization  
is recommended before playing them back on other unit.  
MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)  
MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3  
files on CD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the  
files on this unit.
