VPS (Video Programme System) /
PDC (Programme Delivery Control)
The Video Programme System (VPS) or Programme
Delivery Control (PDC) assures that the TV
programmes you have programmed for timer
recording are recorded exactly from beginning to end,
even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the
scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of
the programme duration. Furthermore, if a
programme is interrupted, the recording will also be
interrupted automatically and resumed when the
programme starts again.
If the VPS/PDC signal drops out because the
broadcast signal is weak, or if a broadcasting station
does not transmit a regular VPS/PDC signal, the timer
recording is performed in normal mode (without VPS/
PDC) even if it was programmed for VPS/PDC. If the
starting time of the VPS/PDC timer recording is
between 0:00 and 3:59 on a given day, the VPS/PDC
function will operate from 20:00 on the previous day to
4:00 on the next day. If the starting time of the VPS/
PDC timer recording is between 4:00 and 23:59 on a
given day, the VPS/PDC function will operate from
0:00 on the given day to 4:00 on the next day. This
means that if the relevant programme is broadcasted
within this period, it is recorded correctly. If the timer is
not programmed correctly, the incorrect timer setting
stays in effect unless you cancel it. To cancel an
incorrect timer setting, refer to “Checking, Cancelling
or Correcting the Timer Programming Information” on
this page.

• This feature is only available for analogue channels.
