Default quality

Your DVD recorder may record several hours of TV programmes or video sequences from a

device connected to DVD+R/+RW discs or the internal DVR hard disc.This capacity depends on

the space available and the quality set in the Default quality menu.

Note: all times are approximative. Access to the adjustment menu is impossible if recording is underway.

SmartRecord™

By activating the SmartRecord™ function of your DVD recorder it will adapt the quality of

your programmed recordings to one of the 6 settings so that you can record the entire desired

programme on a disc that has already been partially recorded.

Chapter Markers

When recording a title, your recorder organises the chapters by creating chapters of 5 minutes in

length.This then allows you to explore your recordings by jumping from chapter to chapter using

the

Pr+ / Pr- key.You may select chapter lengths of 10 minutes if you wish, by positioning the

function to 10 minutes.You may also decide not to create chapters by selecting

NO (function de-

activated).

VPS/PDC

Triggers all your programming at the actual broadcast times (if the channel broadcasts VPS/PDC

signals).

Note: the VPS (Video Programming System) and PDC (Program Delivery Control) signals are transmitted at

the same time as certain programmes, by certain channels and in certain European countries. Leave this

function active to benefit from its benefits for all your programming. If the channel does not broadcast VPS or

PDC signasl, your DVD recorder will record at the start and stop times selected during the programming of

the recording (page 31).
