Extending a timer recording in
progress
You can extend a timer recording beyond the
programmed end time. This can be useful if
a broadcast program overruns, for example.
Canceling or extending the timer
1 Press and hold for three seconds
during a timer recording.
Recording continues, but the timer indicator
disappears from the front panel display
indicating that the timer has been canceled.
2 Press repeatedly to extend
recording in 30 minute blocks.
Stopping a timer recording
1 Press during a timer recording.
2 Select ‘Yes’ to confirm.
Preventing use of the recorder
before a timer recording (child
lock)
You can make all the front panel and remote
control buttons inoperative using the child
lock feature. This is useful when you set a
timer recording and want to make sure that
the timer settings are not changed before
recording has finished.
1 If the recorder is on, switch it
into standby.
2 [Front panel] Press and hold for
three seconds to lock the controls.
The front panel display briefly shows LOCK .
If any buttons are pressed on the remote or
front panel,
LOCK is briefly displayed again.
• To unlock the recorder, press and hold
STOP on the front panel (while the
recorder is stopped) for three seconds
until the display shows
UNLOCK .
Timer recording FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
• Even though the timer is set, the recorder
doesn’t start recording!
Check that the disc loaded or HDD is
recordable, not locked (see
Lock Disc on
page 114), and that there are fewer than
99/999 titles already on the DVD/HDD.
• The recorder won’t let me enter a timer
program! Why not?
You can’t enter a timer program if the
clock isn’t set.
• What happens when two or more timer
programs overlap?
Basically, the program with the earlier
recording start time has priority.
However, the recorder will start
recording the program with the later
start time after the earlier program is
finished. If two programs have the same
times (but different channels, for
example), the program set most recently
takes priority.
If VPS/PDC is active for two timer
programs that are programmed to start
at the same time, then the program that
actually starts first takes priority.
