planned, this function synchronises the beginning and end of the recording
session with the actual beginning and end of the TV programme.
VPS/PDC
ON : The station transmits VPS/PDC signals. You must set the timer to the
time specified in the TV magazines. Use the special VPS time the TV
magazine may indicate.
- - - : The station does not transmit VPS/PDC signals. Try to set the start and
stop time such that the entire film can be recorded even if a programme
begins or ends earlier or later than planned.
