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 109), 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.
