Before Recording
Recording media
The recording media for this recorder
are internal hard disk drive and DVD±R/
±RW/+R DL.
– The hard disk has a high storage density
which enables long recording duration
and quick access to the recording titles.
DVD±RW (DVD Rewritable)
– Discs that are rewritable can be used for
multiple recordings once the existing data
is erased.
DVD±R (DVD Recordable)
– Discs can only be used for a single
recording. Each new recording is always
added at the end of all previous
recordings as existing recordings cannot
be overwritten.
– Editing can be done on DVD±R discs as
long as they have not been fi nalised.
– You can also delete unwanted recordings.
However, the disc space occupied by the
deleted recordings cannot be recovered
for further recording.
– To play a DVD±R disc on other DVD
players, it must be fi nalised. After this is
done, no more data can be added to the
disc. See ‘Edit Recordings - Recordable
DVD - Finalising the DVD±R for
playback’ for details.
DVD+R DL (DVD+R Double Layer)
– It contains the same usage as DVD+R, the
only difference is the capacity of 8.5 GB.
It offers two recordable layers on a single
DVD disc. The layers are accessible from
the same side of the disc, so recording
can occur completely uninterrupted.

Helpful Hints:
– In some cases, you may not be able to add
new recording to a recordable DVD that
contains recordings from other DVD recorders.
– If the newly recorded title in the hard disk
is not accessible, turn the recorder off and on
again to recover the recording.
– If you are unable to fi t a title to a
recordable DVD, split the title to remove the
unwanted sections. See ‘Edit Recordings -
Hard Disk - Video editing’ for details.
– If power failure occurred while copying the
recordings from hard disk is in progress, it
may lead to a bad disc.
