record in V Mode, be sure to execute Format. Be care-

ful when executing Format because all the recorded

data may be lost.

• A DVD-RW blank disc is initialized to VR Mode when

first initialized.

• Disc-protected: See page 87 “Disc Protection”

patible with the DVD-VIDEO format can not be

played with this product.

❋

For more information on recording a DVD, consult

your DVD-RAM/DVD-RW/DVD-R manufacturer.

If poor quality DVD-RAM/DVD-RW/DVD-R discs

are used, your recordings may fail.

• DVD-RW (VR mode)

- This is a format that is used for recording data on a

DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc. You can repeat recording,

editing, deleting, partial deletion, creation of playlist,

and etc.

- A disc that is recorded in this mode may not be played

by existing DVD players.

Do not use the following discs!

• DVD-RW (Video mode)

• LD, CD-G, CD-I, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, VCD, DVD+R

and DVD+RW discs should not be used in this product.

[Note]

- This is a format that is used for recording data on a

DVD-RW or DVD-R disc. The disc can be played by an

existing DVD player once it has been finalized.

- If a disc that has been recorded in Video mode by a dif-

ferent manufacturer's recorder but has not been final-

ized it cannot be played or additionally be recorded by

this recorder.

Disc types that can be played : CD/CD-R/

CD-RW/MP3/JPEG/DVD-Video/DVD-RAM/ DVD-

RW/DVD-R. However, if your DVD-RW disc was record-

ed with another device, it can be played only if it was

recorded and finalized in video mode.

• Some commercial discs and DVD discs purchased out-

side your region may not be playable with this prod-

uct. When these discs are played, either “No disc.” or

“Please check the regional code.” will be displayed.

• If your DVD-RW disc is an illegal copy or is not in

DVD video format, it may also not be playable.

DVD-RAM Disc Playback and Recording

• DVD-RAM discs come with or without a cartridge. For

this product, we recommend DVD-RAM discs that

come with cartridges.

• Some cartridges are able to eject the disc inside. Even

if you are able to eject the disc, always use the disc

with the cartridge to ensure correct operation.

• DVD-RAM discs have a Write Protect tab in order to

avoid accidental erasure of recorded data. With the

Write Protect tab set to PROTECT, you can play the

disc, but recording or erasing will not work. Set the

Write Protect tab to UNPROTECT to format the disc

or erase data.

• Ensure that the recording mode is set to VR mode.

Otherwise, this product will not be able to play the

recording.

• You cannot play a DVD-RAM in most DVD players

due to compatibility issues.

• Only DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 discs can be

played in this unit.

• DVD-RAM recorded on this unit may not work with

other DVD Players. To determine compatibility with

these DVD-RAM discs, refer to the user’s manual for

the player.

• This unit is compatible with both non-cartridge and car-

tridge DVD-RAM, but the write-protect tabs on cartridge-

type discs give better protection to your recordings.

COPY PROTECTION

•

Many DVD discs are encoded with copy protection.

Because of this, you should only connect your DVD

Recorder-VCR directly to your TV, not to a VCR.

Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from

copy-protected DVD discs.

This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video format

(Video mode) or DVD-Video Recording format (VR mode). For

an unused disc, a message that asks whether to format in VR

Mode or not is displayed. You can play a video mode disc on

various DVD components. A VR mode disc allows more varied

editing.

Finalizing & Playing on

other DVD components

Step 3

Recording

Step 6

There are two different recording methods: Direct Recording

and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified as record-

ing type : Once, Daily or Weekly or recording mode : XP

(high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long

recording mode), and EP (extended mode) according to the

recording mode.

To play your DVD on other DVD components, finalizing may

be necessary. First, finish all editing and recording opera-

tions, then finalize the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalizing is generally unnecessary when playing

the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a finalized

disc should be used for playback on that type of component.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be finalized first to enable playback on any-

thing other than this recorder. No more editing or recording

can be made on the disc once it has been finalized.

To enable recording on the disc again, Disc should be

unfinalized.

Step 4

Playing

When using a DVD-R disc

You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu

and then immediately start playback.

You should finalize the disc to play it on a component other

than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on the disc once

it has been finalized.

A DVD consists of sections, called titles, and sub sections,

called chapters.

During recording, a title is created between two points where

you start and stop recording, DVD-R/DVD-RW discs(in

Video mode) can automatically create chapters according to

the recording mode when finalized.

Step 5

Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The

recorder supports many different edit functions, possible only

with DVDs.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various

edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a

recorded title.

Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode)

With this recorder, you can create a new playlist on the same

disc and edit it without the change of the original recording.

Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan

doubles the amount of video beam lines fed to your TV,

resulting in a more stable, flicker-free, and clear image than

interlaced video. The progressive scan video output jack is

used in progressive output mode. This is only available

with TVs that support progressive scan.

Consumers should note that not all high definition televi-

sion sets are fully compatible with this product and may

cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. If you experi-

ence 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recom-

mended that you switch the connection to the ‘standard

definition’ output. If there are questions regarding TV set

compatibility with this unit, please contact our customer

service center at 1-800-SAMSUNG.

You can record non-scrambled channels by selecting the

channel on the cable box. You cannot record scrambled

channels that require a cable box.
