• If the NICAM broadcast is bilingual, you
can also select the language.
• You can also select the language for a
non-NICAM bilingual broadcast.
• When watching a recording made from
an external input with Bilingual
recording selected (see External Audio
on page 111), you can switch the audio
channel between left (L), right (R) or both
(L+R).
Note
• When recording to the HDD with HDD
Recording Format set to Video Mode On,
to DVD-R/-RW (Video mode), to DVD+R/
+RW, or on the LPCM setting, only one
channel of a bilingual broadcast is
recorded. In this case, decide which
language you want to record before
recording by setting the Bilingual
Recording setting (see Bilingual
Recording on page 112).
Setting the picture quality/
recording time
Before starting a recording, you will usually
want to set the picture quality/recording
time. There are six standard settings
available, which allow you to choose a
balance between picture quality and
recording time.
When Manual Recording is set to On (see
Manual Recording on page 114), a further
option will be available (MN1 to MN32,
LPCM, or XP+ (a super-high quality HDD
recording mode that features a transfer rate
of around 15 Mbps) depending on what you
set).
When recording to DVD, MN32 is the
highest recording quality available. If you
select XP+, the recording mode will
automatically revert to MN32.
When recording to DVD+R/+RW, SLP is the
longest recording time available. If you
select SEP or MN1 to MN3, the recording
mode will automatically revert to SLP.
• Press repeatedly to select the
recording quality.
• XP – High quality setting, gives about
one hour of recording time on a DVD
disc.
• SP (Standard Play) – Default quality,
used for most applications, gives about
two hours of recording time on a DVD.
• LP (Long Play) – Lower video quality than
SP, but doubles the recording time on a
DVD to about four hours.
• EP (Extended Play) – Lower quality than
LP, but gives about six hours of
recording time on a DVD disc.
• SLP (Super Long Play) – Lower quality
than EP, but gives about eight hours of
recording time on a DVD disc.
• SEP (Super Extended Play) – Lowest
video quality but gives about ten hours of
recording time on a DVD disc.
• MN1 to MN32/LPCM
