Changing audio channels

You can change the audio channel of the broadcast or
external input signal.

Press AUDIO to change the audio.

The current audio channel is displayed on-screen.

• If the NICAM audio setting (see

NICAM Select

on

page 81) is set to

NICAM

and you are watching a

NICAM broadcast, you can switch between

NICAM

and

Regular

(non-NICAM) audio.

• 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 81), you can switch the audio channel

between left (

L

), right (

R

) or both (

L+R

).

Note

• If a Video mode disc is loaded, or if the recording

mode is

FINE

/

MN32

, 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 82).

Switching between TV and DVD

When the recorder is stopped or recording you can
choose whether to have the audio/video from the built-in
TV tuner (or external input) play on your TV (‘DVD mode’),
or watch the channel that the TV is currently set to (‘TV
mode’).

During playback or when a menu is being displayed on-
screen, the sound and video is always routed to your TV
and is unaffected by the

TV/DVD

mode setting.

Note that the recorder must be connected to your TV
using a SCART cable to be able to use this feature.

Press TV/DVD to switch between TV mode and

DVD mode.

Basic playback

This section shows you how to use your recorder for
playback of discs (DVD, CD, etc.). More playback
features, such as repeat and program play, are covered in
the next chapter.

Important

• Throughout this manual, the term ‘DVD’ means

playback-only DVD-Video discs and DVD-R/RW. If a
function is specific to a particular kind of DVD disc, it
is specified.

• Some DVD-Video discs don’t allow certain playback

controls to operate at certain points in the disc. This
is not a malfunction.
