otes  
• The DVD Recorder+VCR cannot record on CD-R or  
CD-RW discs.  
• DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a  
personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not  
play if the disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or  
condensation on the DVD Recorder+VCR’s lens.  
otes  
– Depending on the conditions of the recording equip-  
ment or the recordable disc (including CD-R/RW,  
DVD-R/-RW, and DVD+R/+RW), some discs cannot  
be played on this DVD Recorder+VCR.  
– Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the  
labeled side or the recorded side) of a disc.  
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even  
if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are  
cases in which it may not play because of the settings  
of the application software used to create the disc.  
(Check with the software publisher for more detailed  
information.)  
Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped  
or octagonal). Doing so may result in malfunctions.  
Regional code of the DVD Recorder+VCR and DVDs  
This DVD Recorder+VCR is designed and manu-  
factured for playback of Region 1 encoded DVD  
software. The region code on the labels of some  
DVD discs indicates which type of DVD  
Recorder+VCR can play those discs. The DVD  
Recorder+VCR can play only DVD discs labeled 1 or  
ALL. If you try to play any other discs, the message  
“Incorrect region code. Can’t playback” will appear on the  
TV screen. Some DVD discs may not have a region code  
label even though their playback is prohibited by area  
limits.  
• The company cannot be held responsible to compen-  
sate for material which did not record as intended,  
and any losses or damages (e.g., loss of profit or  
interruption of business) that may arise from the mal-  
function of this recorder (not recording/editing as  
intended). This includes problems arising in the fol-  
lowing situations:  
1
- When a DVD disc recorded on this DVD  
Recorder+VCR is used in another manufacturer’s  
DVD recorder, or used (loaded, played, recorded or  
edited) in the DVD drive of a personal computer.  
- When a DVD that has been used as above is used  
again in this DVD Recorder+VCR.  
otes on DVDs and Video CDs  
Some DVD and Video CD playback operations may be  
intentionally set by the software manufacturer. As this  
DVD Recorder+VCR plays DVDs and Video CDs  
according to disc content designed by the software  
manufacturer, some DVD and Video CDs playback fea-  
tures may not be available or other functions may be  
added. Refer also to the instructions supplied with your  
DVDs and Video CDs. Some DVDs made for business  
purposes may not be played on this unit.  
- When a DVD disc recorded in another manufactur-  
er’s DVD recorder, or in the DVD drive of a person-  
al computer.

Video CDs equipped with PBC (Version 2.0)  
PBC (Playback control) allows you to interact with the  
contents of a Video CD using menus, search functions,  
and other special operations. High resolution pictures  
can be displayed if they are included on the disc.

DoMiNoFX™ is a patented video process-  
ing technology that digitally enhances and refines the  
picture quality during recording. This results in visibly  
superior recordings, and a dramatic improvement when  
recording from noisy source material, such as VHS  
tapes or weak TV signals.

No. When you edit a videotape you need one video  
deck to play the original tape and another to record the  
edits. With DVD, you edit by making a “Playlist” of what  
to play and when to play it. During playback, the DVD  
Recorder+VCR plays the disc according to your Playlist.  
How are DVD-R and DVD-RW discs different?  
DVD-R is a record-once medium, while DVD-RW is a  
re-recordable/erasable medium. You can re-record/  
erase an RW disc approximately 1,000 times.  
Can I play my recordable discs in a regular DVD  
player?  
“Original” Content vs “Playlist” Content  
Generally, DVD-R discs and DVD-RW discs recorded in  
“Video mode” are playable in most standard DVD play-  
ers, but they must be finalized first. This process fixes  
the contents of your discs so they are readable on other  
DVD players as standard DVD-Video discs. DVD-RW  
discs recorded in “VR mode” (Video Recording mode)  
are only readable on players with the “RW Compatible”  
logo.  
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words  
“Original” and “Playlist” to distinguish between the actu-  
al content on your DVD-RW and the edited version.  
Original: Refers to what is actually recorded on the  
disc.  
Playlist: Refers to the edited version of the disc —  
i.e., how the Original content is to be played.  
About DVD Recording  
This logo indicates that a product is capable  
of playing DVD-RW discs recorded in “VR  
mode”.  
otes  
• The DVD Recorder+VCR cannot make recordings on  
CD-R or CD-RW discs.  
• Our company takes no responsibility for recording fail-  
ure due to power outages, defective discs, or damage  
to the DVD Recorder+VCR.  
• Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can affect  
playback and/or recording performance. Please take  
proper care of your discs.  
What are “Recording Modes”?  
Two recording modes are available on your DVD  
Recorder+VCR: “Video mode” and “VR mode”:  
About “VR mode”  
• Compatible with DVD-RW discs only  
• Allows extensive editing of DVD-RW recordings  
• Discs are not playable on regular DVD players  
• 4 different picture quality/recording time settings are  
available: XP (1 hr/disc), SP (2 hrs/disc), LP (4  
hrs/disc), and EP (6 hrs/disc)  
Disc Types and Recording Formats  
The DVD Recorder+VCR recorder can play three differ-  
ent kinds of DVD disc: Pre-recorded DVD-Video discs,  
DVD-RW, and DVD-R discs. The disc format for DVD-R  
discs is always “Video format”—the same as pre-record-  
ed DVD-Video discs. This means that once finalized,  
you can play a DVD-R in a regular DVD player.  
The recording mode is closely related to the disc for-  
mat. If the disc format is Video Recording format, then  
the recording mode is VR mode; if the disc format is  
Video mode, then the recording mode is Video mode  
(except for DVD-Video, which is not recordable, and so  
does not have a recording mode).  
About “Video mode”  
• Compatible with both DVD-R and DVD-RW discs  
• Provides limited editing features  
• Playable on most regular DVD players (after finaliz-  
ing)  
• 4 different picture quality/recording time settings are  
available: XP (1 hr/disc), SP (2 hrs/disc), LP (4  
hrs/disc), and EP (6 hrs/disc)  
ote  
Discs formatted in “Video mode” are recorded in the  
DVD-Video format, which was approved by the DVD  
Forum in 2000. As a result, you may experience prob-  
lems playing your discs in some older players.  
Symptoms include video artifacts, audio and/or video  
dropouts and playback suddenly stopping. Our compa-  
ny cannot take responsibility for problems playing discs  
recorded on this DVD Recorder+VCR in other players.  
Within the recording modes (which are fixed for the  
whole disc) are the record settings. These can be  
changed as required for each recording and determine  
the picture quality and how much space the recording  
will take up on the disc.

Restrictions on Video Recording  
Notes for Recording  
You cannot record copy-protected video using this  
recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video  
discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-protected  
material is encountered during a recording, recording  
will pause or stop automatically and an error message  
will be displayed on-screen.  
• Video that is ‘Copy-Once Only’ can only be recorded  
using a DVD-RW disc in VR mode with CPRM (see  
below).  
• The recording times shown are not exact because the  
DVD Recorder+VCR uses variable bit-rate video com-  
pression. This means that the exact recording time  
will depend on the material being recorded.  
• When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is  
poor or the picture contains interference, the record-  
ing times may be shorter.  
• If you record still pictures or audio only, the recording  
time may be longer.  
• The displayed times for recording and time remaining  
may not always add up to exactly the length of the  
disc.  
• The recording time available may decrease if you  
heavily edit a disc.  
• If you are using a DVD-RW disc, make sure you  
change the recording format (Video mode or VR  
mode) before you record anything on the disc. See  
page 25 (Disc Initialize) for instructions on how to do  
this.  
• When using a DVD-R disc, you can keep recording  
until the disc is full, or until you finalize the disc.  
Before you start a recording session, check the  
amount of recording time left on the disc.  
• When using a DVD-RW disc in Video mode, recording  
time available will only increase if you erase the last  
title recorded on the disc.  
What is ‘CPRM’?  
CPRM is a copy protection system (with scramble sys-  
tem) only allowing the recording of ‘Copy-Once’ broad-  
cast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for  
Recordable Media.  
This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that  
you can record Copy-Once broadcast programs, but  
you cannot then make a copy of those recordings.  
CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs  
formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only  
be played on players that are specifically compatible  
with CPRM.  
Copyright Notice  
• Audio and video recordings you make using this  
recorder are for your personal use only. You may not  
sell, lend, or rent them to other people.  
• The Erase Title option in the Original (Title) menu only  
hides the title, it does not actually erase the title from  
the disc and increase the recording time available  
(except for the last recorded title on a DVD-RW disc  
in Video mode).

Recording TV Audio Channels  
This recorder can record one or two channel audio. For  
TV broadcasts, this usually means mono or stereo, but  
some programs are broadcast with a main and a SAP  
(Secondary Audio Program) audio channel.  
If you’re recording in Video mode (or in VR mode), you  
can record either the main audio or the SAP audio.

Precautions  
Notes on Discs  
Handling discs  
Handling the unit  
Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the  
disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the  
surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.  
When shipping the unit  
The original shipping carton and packing materials  
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the  
unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.  
When setting up the unit  
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio  
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position  
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the  
unit after removing the disc.  
Storing discs  
After playing, store the disc in its case.  
To keep the surface clean  
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of  
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-  
light, as there may be a considerable temperature  
increase inside the car.  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,  
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in  
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will  
leave marks on the surface.  
Cleaning discs  
Cleaning the unit  
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-  
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean  
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-  
ter outward.  
To clean the cabinet  
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,  
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,  
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface  
of the unit.  
Yes  
No  
To obtain a clear picture  
The DVD Recorder+VCR is a high-tech, precision  
device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts  
are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor.  
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended  
after every 1,000 hours of use (depending on the oper-  
ating environment.) For details, please contact your  
nearest dealer.  
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,  
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for older vinyl records.  
Moisture Condensation  
Never operate the DVD Recorder+VCR immediately  
after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.  
Leave it for two or three hours without operating it. If  
you use the DVD Recorder+VCR in such a situation, it  
may damage discs/tapes and internal parts.  
Remote Control Operation Range  
Point the remote control at the remote sensor and  
press the buttons.  
Distance: About 23 ft (7 m) from the front of the  
remote sensor.

Adding Chapter Markers  
You can put a chapter marker anywhere in a Playlist or  
Original title during recording or playback. Once the  
chapter is marked, you can use the Chapter Search  
feature, as well as Erase, combine and move chapters  
in the Chapter List-Original or Chapter List-Playlist  
menu. You can insert up to 999 chapter markers in both  
the Original and Playlist contents.  
Edits you make to the Original content of a DVD-RW  
disc in VR mode change the actual content of the disc.  
For example, if you delete a title or chapter from the  
Original content, that title or chapter is deleted from the  
disc, freeing up extra recording time.  
When you edit a Playlist, however, you are not chang-  
ing the content of the disc. For example, when you  
delete a title from a Playlist, you are just telling the  
recorder not to play that title; nothing is actually deleted  
from the disc.  
ote  
Chapter markers are inserted at regular intervals auto-  
matically. You can change this interval in the Setup  
menu (see Auto Chapter on page 25).

About Titles, Chapters and Parts

Titles in the disc’s Original content contain one or more  
chapters. When you insert a title into a Playlist, all the  
chapters within that title also appear. In other words,  
chapters in a Playlist behave exactly the same as chap-  
ters on a DVD-Video disc.  
At the point you want to start a new chapter,  
2 press ADD CHAP.  
A Chapter Marker icon appears on the TV screen.  
You can also put chapter markers during recording.  
Parts are sections of Original or Playlist titles. From the  
Original and Playlist menu you can add or delete parts.  
Adding a chapter or title to a Playlist creates a new title  
made up of a section (i.e., chapter) of an Original title.  
Deleting a part removes part of a title from the Original  
or Playlist menu.

tions, the start and end frames may not be exactly as
