Your HDD DVD recorder provides you with perfect digital video record-  
ing and playback in studio quality.  
You can record television programmes on the built-in hard disc of the  
HDD DVD recorder, a DVD+RW/-RW or DVD+R/-R.  
With the time shift function you can watch television programmes with a  
time shift which are stored in the time shift memory. You can stop these  
programmes and continue playback at the same point.  
It also provides superb cinema-quality audio playback – in stereo or  
with digital multi-channel sound – depending on the type of disc and  
audio system or stereo television.  
Other features of DVD video include the choice of audio channel and lan-  
guage, choice of subtitle language, and various camera recording angles.  
Your HDD DVD recorder is suitable for DVDs with regional code 2.

In addition to DVDs the device can also play back DivX Video CDs,

DVD video, DVD+RW/-RW, DVD+R/-R, audio CD, video CD, Super  
Video CD, CD-R and CD-RW are all suitable playback formats.  
Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of  
the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that some recorded  
DVDs or CDs cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction on  
the part of the HDD DVD recorder.

You must finalise your own recordings on DVD+R/-R so that they can be  
played on a DVD player.  
When MP3 CDs are played back, individual tracks or pictures may be  
skipped or incorrectly played back. This can be due to the disc configu-  
ration, the encoder software or the hardware used for the recording.  
Audio CDs (CD-DA) meet the specification and bear the corresponding  
logo. Copy-protected CDs do not meet this specification and do not  
bear the logo. These CDs can cause playback errors.

Always keep the disc compartment of the HDD DVD video recorder closed to  
prevent dust from collecting on the laser optics.  
Please note when deciding where to put the device that furniture surfaces are  
covered by various types of lacquer and plastic, most of which contain  
chemical additives. These may cause corrosion to the feet of the device, thus  
resulting in stains on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or  
impossible to remove.  
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch  
off the other equipment as well before connecting it.  
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the

You have four options, depending on the sockets you have on your  
television or flat screen:  
– For the best picture quality, make the connection at the EURO-AV  
socket using a fully assigned EURO-AV (SCART) cable.  
– The simplest option which still offers sufficient quality is to connect  
the VIDEO OUT socket and AUDIO OUT sockets using cinch cables.  
– The standard connection for many devices, and one which pro-  
vides good quality, is via the S-VIDEO OUT socket and the  
AUDIO OUT cinch sockets.  
– Connection via the cinch sockets Y, Pb/Cb and Pr/Cr (video sig-  
nals) and the AUDIO OUT cinch sockets (audio signals).  
This connection (progressive scan) can also be used for projectors.  
Connect the HDD DVD recorder directly to the television. If you con-  
nect a video recorder in between, the HDD DVD recorder’s copy  
protection may impair the picture quality.

video data.  
This enables the HDD DVD player to play back videos compressed  
in the DivX© format. This results in playback quality with fewer arte-  
facts and higher compression.  
DivX©Video files have, for example, the suffix AVI. DivX©Video data  
is packaged in the AVI file along with audio data compressed in  
MP3 format. This means:  
DivX©Video and MP3 audio form the AVI file.  
Further information on DivX©Video and how to create AVI files can  
be found under www. divx.com.

You can see the registration code in the »VIDEO« — »DIVX regis-  
tration« menu on page 100.  
MP3 stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 and comes from the Motion  
Picture Expert Group (MPEG) standard, which was developed for  
compressing film data.  
The MP3 format enables audio files to be saved on a computer with  
a sound quality similar to that of a CD. This only requires about  
10 % of the original data quantity. The standard encoding bit rate  
for MP3 files is 128 kbps. Generally, the higher the bit rate of an  
MP3 file, the better the sound quality.  
Most MP3 files on the Internet are encoded at 128 or 160 kbps.  
160 kbps is considered CD quality.  
MP3 files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned  
onto a CD-ROM. Your HDD DVD recorder can read the ID3 tag  
from the file header, which contains information on the song and  
the artist, and displays this in the info menu/status display.  
MP3 CDs contain sound recordings. They can be played in the  
normal manner on an audio system. The digital signals transmitted  
during MP3 playback are PCM encoded, regardless of the audio  
output setting. The signals are output with the same data rate as the  
music source (possibilities are: 32 kbps – 320 kbps, usually:  
128 kbps).  
MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders similar to  
files on a computer.

JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This process was  
designed to compress picture files.  
JPEG files can be burned onto a CD along with other file types.  
These CDs are known as file CDs or mixed-mode CDs. For example,  
the CD could contain MP3 files (audio) and JPEG files (for example  
to display album covers).  
The files on a JPEG CD can be organised in directories. This struc-  
ture is similar to that of an MP3 CD.  
JPEG CDs only contain data in the compressed JPEG format. This is  
mostly data from digital cameras or from imaging programs.

You can record television programmes on the HDD archive of the  
HDD DVD recorder or on a DVD+RW/-RW and DVD+R/-R.  
– Immediately, with one touch recording – which means you select  
the channel on the HDD DVD recorder and start recording straight  
away.  
– At a later stage – by entering data for the TV channel.  
– With option 2 you can program up to eight programmes up to a  
year in advance, or record programmes at the same time every  
day or week.  
– You can also record films from external devices such as cam-  
corders connected to the »  
« or »  
« and  
»
« sockets on the HDD DVD recorder.  
You can use DVD+R/-R and DVD+RW/-RW discs for recording.  
DVD+R/-Rs can only be recorded on once. If you want to play these  
discs on a DVD player, you first have to finalise them. Once they  
have been finalised, they can no longer be recorded on.  
If you only want to play them on your HDD DVD recorder, you do  
not have to finalise them.  
You can add more recordings and delete them as necessary.  
Note that any playing time you delete is no longer available  
for recording.  
DVD+RW/-RWs (rewritable) can be recorded on very often (up to a  
thousand times) and deleted.  
You may have to delete recordings made by other devices on  
DVD+RW/-RWs before you can record on them.  
– Damaged discs cannot be recorded on.  
– Finalised discs cannot be recorded on. This can only be done with  
unfinalised discs.  
– Full discs cannot be recorded on.  
– Very rarely, discs are defective and therefore cannot be recorded  
on. Try recording on another disc.  
The DVD+R/+RW or DVD-R/-RW is automatically initialised before  
recording, this can take a few minutes.  
Only then is recording possible.

The quality and recording time are interdependent. The better  
the quality, the more memory the recording requires. This  
means that the recording time is shorter in high quality mode  
than in standard quality mode.  
The recording quality (HQ, SP, SP+, LP, EP, SLP or SEP) is selected  
automatically during playback.  
Playback is viewed with the recording quality that was selected  
for the recording.

Pay attention to the recording quality, whether you set it manually or  
with the timer, when you want to record a program in the HDD  
archive and then transfer it to a disc at a later point.  
If you select a very high recording quality, a 90 minute film might  
not fit onto the disc. To record the film you will have to divide the  
film into two parts.  
You cannot subsequently reduce the quality of the recording.

tries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from  
many European countries.  
This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved  
converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated  
fuse.  
In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only,  
which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately  
disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a  
qualified electrician.  
The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock  
hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.  
If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is  
used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any  
other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the  
plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective,  
ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock  
hazard.  
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct  
type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the  
fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and  
plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse  
covers should be obtained from your dealer.  
The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the follo-  
wing code:  
BLUE – NEUTRAL  
BROWN – LIVE  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not cor-  
respond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, pro-  
ceed as follows:  
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N”  
or coloured black.  
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the let-  
ter “L” or coloured red.  
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal mar-  
ked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “z”, coloured green, or green &  
yellow.
