Introduction
About this product
Some differences
Compatibility
Because of its recording capacity, this DVD recorder
operates more like a computer and differently than a
standard DVD player. In addition to containing a
microprocessor, it contains an operating system,
random access memory (RAM), and a DVD-RAM/R/RW
drive. The operating system includes software that is
transferred to the RAM when the machine is turned on
and at other times during operation. This transfer can
take time. Therefore, when you turn the DVD recorder
on, it may take a little while before it is ready to use.
Likewise, other functions may not be performed as
quickly as they would on other AV equipment.
In isolated cases, a disc bearing the DVD or CD logo
may not fully and properly play back all features or as
intended by the creator of the disc. This can be due,
among other reasons, to problems and errors that can
occur during the creation or recording of DVD and other
software and the manufacture of software discs
(including blank discs). Moreover, because of
variations in the quality of discs, this recorder may not
be able to record on all discs that bear a DVD-RAM,
DVD-R or DVD-RW logo, but you should not encounter
difficulty if you use only high quality recordable DVD
discs. Additionally, discs recorded in this device may not
operate properly in other DVD players, recorders and/or
personal computer drives. If you happen to encounter
difficulties playing or recording a DVD disc or playing a
CD disc, please feel free to call our Customer Service
Hotline at 1-800-319-6684.
Additionally, accessing those programs (or deleting a
program from a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc) may take
more time. Please take these factors into consideration
as you use the DVD recorder.
Playback Restrictions
This owner’s manual explains the basic instructions for
this recorder. Some DVD video discs are produced in a
manner that allows specific or limited operation during
playback. As such, the recorder may not respond to all
operating commands. This is not a defect in the
recorder. Please refer to the notes on compatible discs
later in this Introduction and to the discussion of DVD
playback and features later in this manual.
“
“
” may appear on the TV screen during operation.
” means that the operation is not permitted by the
recorder or the disc.
Recording Restrictions and Copyright
Copy-protected contents of DVD-Video discs, VIDEO
CDs or audio CDs on the market cannot be copied on
this recorder. Contents without copy protection should
be copied or edited only in accordance with applicable
copyright laws, which may restrict copying or editing.
Contents that permit single copying (copy once
contents) can be recorded onto DVD-RAM discs, with
some dubbing and editing restrictions. DVD-R/RW discs
cannot record these contents.
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or
revision of copyrighted materials including, without
limitation, television programs, videotapes, and DVDs, is
prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United
States and other countries, and may subject you to civil
and criminal liability.

Choosing a disc
There are many types and formats of discs. Please use the following information to select an
appropriate disc.
Notes

Using different disc types for different purposes
DVD-RAM discs for your personal library
DVD-RAM discs comply with the global standard DVD-VR (Video Recording) format, and are optimized for recording of
TV programs.You can rewrite repeatedly without deterioration of an image quality, erase unnecessary parts, divide a
chapter, or specify playback area by frame. Its cartridge is suitable for a longer-term storage and family use, and its
large capacity of 9.4 GB allows more recording space.
DVD-R discs when creating your own original discs for distribution
DVD-R discs are designed to comply with the global standard DVD-Video format, and can be recorded only once.
DVD-R discs are convenient when you edit your original content (recorded personal events such as a wedding party)
with this recorder, transfer them to the recorder and make copies to send to your friends or relatives. The discs can be
played on other compatible DVD players. DVD-RW discs, which are rewriteable, can be used as well.
* DVD-R and DVD-RW may not be the best suited format for recording TV programs. Because of the way the discs are
formatted, it may not be possible to edit or divide the program as you may prefer, to record secondary languages, or
programs that are copy protected in a way that allows only one copy. (NOTE: “Copy once” protected programs
generally can be recorded to DVD-RAM discs.)
* This recorder records on a DVD-R/RW disc in DVD-Video format only. In DVD-VR format, recording is not possible.
We cannot guarantee that DVD-RAM/R/RW discs recorded on this recorder will be playable on all DVD recorders/
players. Similarly, there is no guarantee that all DVD-RAM/R/RW discs recorded on other recorders will be playable on
this recorder.

Introduction
Choosing a disc (Continued)
On DVD-RAM discs
To protect recorded contents
Slide the write-protect tab to
“PROTECT” with something small
enough. The disc can play, but
cannot be edited or erased. Refer to
the instructions that come with the
disc.
Use only DVD-RAM discs that comply with DVD-
RAM standard Version 2.0, 2.1 or 2.2.
The recorder cannot record on a disc formatted in any
other standard. When using such a disc, initialize it by
using the disc-format function of this recorder.
The recorder may not record, dub, or edit some DVD-
RAM discs, because they are edited/recorded with
another manufacturer’s equipment or PC, contain a
large number of titles, or have little remaining capacity.
Also, a DVD-RAM disc may not be edited or recorded
if its title contains still pictures.
PROTECT
When using a disc without a
cartridge (commercially
available discs)
Discs without cartridges can easily
attract fingerprints and dust, which
DVD-RAM discs formatted in UDF2.0 on a PC are not
compatible with this recorder. Before using these
discs, initialize them on this recorder.
is the reason they are not recommended. If you cannot
avoid using them, handle with proper care.
When you write in a title column on a disc, use a pen
with a soft tip. Do not use a pen with a hard tip, such
as a ballpoint pen.
This recorder complies with current copyright
protection technology and can copy a disc only when
the disc permits copying once. When there is no
indication on the disc, copying will not be allowed.
DVD-RAM discs with cartridges are
recommended for recording.
Two types of DVD-RAM discs are
available: ones with cartridges and ones
without cartridges.You can use either of
them with this recorder, but the former
ones are recommended.
Recommended discs
The following discs have been tested with this recorder:
9.4 GB double-sided cartridge: Panasonic 2X, 3X
4.7 GB single-sided cartridge: Panasonic 2X, 3X
In order to record highly detailed data, make sure the
disc is clean. DVD-RAM discs with cartridges are
easier to handle in this regard.
Do not open the cartridge shutter. The disc may not
play, or may not be recorded or edited once it
becomes dirty.
There are two types of DVD-RAM cartridges;
removable (TYPE 2/4) and not removable (TYPE 1). It
is recommended you do not remove the disc even
when you can.
Refer to the instruction manual that comes with the
disc if it is absolutely necessary to remove the disc.
Some commercially available cartridge discs cannot
be recorded or edited once the inside discs are
removed.

become recording disabled. In such a case, executing an
initialization of the disc using the formatting function of the
recorder may refresh it. However, all contents stored on the
disc will be completely erased by this initialization process.
• This recorder may indicate alert messages with some
DVD-RAM discs right after insertion. If such a disc is used
for playback or recording on other equipment, all data in
the disc may be damaged and the disc will not be played.

Recording
Before recording
Please be sure to read this critical background information prior to making a recording.
Conventional video cassette recorders have required tapes to record, while this recorder enables
recording on a DVD-RAM/R/RW disc whenever you want, without selecting an available tape and
confirming a point to start a recording from.
Further, if you use DVD-RAM discs, you can collect necessary scenes and store them in it to make
your own video library.
Is your DVD recorder ready?
Notes
• This recorder records on a DVD-RAM disc if it complies
with DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0, 2.1 or 2.2. However,
you may not record on some DVD-RAM discs that have
complicated contents (often, to protect the recorded data).
When you select a DVD-RAM discs that has already been
recorded, check that the disc is suitable for recording or the
remaining time of the disc is displayed. It is recommended
to use a new DVD-RAM disc for an important recording.
• Depending on the source recording device used and how
that device is set up, the video and sound quality of the
recording may vary slightly from the video and sound
quality of the source device.
Before recording a TV program on this recorder, insure
that channels you want to record are correctly tuned in
on this recorder.
If not tuned in, read the separate “INSTALLATION
GUIDE” volume again, and confirm all the necessary
connections and settings have been done.
Also, insure the clock is set precisely for program
recording. Set the clock using the “Initial settings”
menu (
page 33, INSTALLATION GUIDE).

When the programmed settings overlap
Before the first recording is completed, the second
program is scheduled to begin recording. When using
a DVD-RAM disc, the recording of the previous
program stops 15 seconds before the next program
starts.
Note on recording on a DVD-R disc
Confirm disc compatibility and prepare an available

rewritability. (Canceling the finalization is not possible.)
• DVD-Video finalize process cannot be canceled if
once executed on a DVD-R disc.
• On DVD-R discs recorded on other devices, you
cannot execute DVD-Video finalize process or add
recordings on this recorder.
On a programmed recording across the change-
over of Daylight-saving time
• When the clock gains across Daylight-saving time
during a programmed recording, it means that the
recording completion time is consequently set one-
hour earlier. In this case, set the programmed
recording one-hour longer in advance. If not set
accordingly, the programmed recording stops one-
hour shorter.
To check space remaining on a disc
1) Press REMAIN.
The current capacity is displayed at the bottom of
the screen and on the front panel display.
2) After checking the capacity, press REMAIN again
to turn off the display.
• When the clock loses across Daylight-saving time
during a programmed recording, it means that the
recording completion time is consequently set one-
hour later. In this case, as the programmed
recording continues one-hour longer, delete
unnecessary chapters by chapter dividing after the
completion of recording.
Note
• You can also check the capacity of the disc by selecting
“Disc budget calculation” from Quick Menu within the REC
MENU (
page 45).
Programmed recording and operational status
The recorder gives priority to programmed recordings
in every operating mode. Even if the recorder is
playing, recording or editing, or even in standby mode,
at a starting time of a programmed recording the
recorder will make itself ready or stop those
operations and start the recording.
However, “DVD-Video finalizing process” (
page
100) operations may have priority over programmed
recordings.
Notes
• The “Loading” icon appears in the top right of the screen after recording. This indicates that the unit is executing
the final recording process (writing managing information). Operations other than changing channels cannot be
done until this icon disappears. The time for executing this process differs depending on the recording time or
capacity of the disc.
• Note that all recording content may be deleted if the unit is disconnected from a wall outlet, or a power failure
occurs, during recording.
• If a power failure occurs within five minutes prior to the programed recording start time, the programmed recording
may not be executed.
• A programmed recording may not be executed correctly if scheduled when Daylight-Saving time starts or ends.

Notes
• The physical format process may fail if executed to a dirty
DVD-RAM disc. Also, the disc may be difficult to record,
even if it finished. Before executing DVD-RAM physical
format process, be sure to confirm the disc is not dirty.
Clean it if necessary. If the disc has scratches or dust
beyond cleaner’s efficacy, do not execute DVD-RAM
physical format process on the disc.
• The following DVD-RAM discs require physical formatting:
–A disc which is not formatted correctly.
–The disc which has errors during writing because of dirt
on the disc, and cannot be further recorded, or cannot
initialize normally.
DVD-RAM physical format
Physical formatting is a simple execution for a disc which
cannot be used or read (or which is becoming hard to
read). It may refresh such a disc for recording and
playback. (There is no guarantee that all such discs will
be recovered.)
“DVD-RAM logical format” process only rewrites certain
data on file system and management information,
however, “DVD-RAM physical format” rewrites all data on
a disc, therefore it takes a much longer time to complete.
For a 4.7GB single sided DVD-RAM, about 70 minutes
will be necessary. While processing, all recorder
operations and functions including program recording will
not work until the process is finished. Also this process
erases all data stored on the DVD-RAM disc.
• You need to start physical formatting from the first step
again when you use a failed disc.
• Physical formatting does not work if the disc contains a lot
of voids beyond the limitation of this recorder.
• If an error occurs in physical formatting, “ERR-01” appears
in the front panel display. To turn off the message, press
DISPLAY button.

Notes
• If a source of high quality sound track such as DVD audio is recorded with this recorder, the sound quality becomes regular
audio CD quality. Refer to the instructions of the connected equipment.
• When you record an external source onto a DVD-R/RW disc, set the connected equipment to output sound you want to
record (if selectable such as multiplex broadcasting), as the recorder records sounds of external source in the stereo type
onto a DVD-R/RW disc, neglecting the setting of “DVD compatible mode” (
page 33).
• DVD-R/RW discs cannot record contents with copy restriction signal embedded (copy-protected or copy once contents),
DVD-RAM discs can record copy once contents.
• Some satellite programs via a connected tuner may contain both 4:3 pictures and 16:9 pictures. DVD-R/RW discs cannot
record such contents, under restriction of the DVD-Video standard. To record these programs, use DVD-RAM discs.

Notes on recording from a connected VCR or camcorder
Check the condition of the source equipment before playing.
Set the equipment in good condition, e.g. clean the head or adjust the tracking, etc. to obtain optimum playback.
Bad condition may produce noises in playback. These noises may be detected as copy protection signals,
resulting in stop of recording on this recorder.
Play a source in an usual mode. Avoid using any correcting or enhancing features, as they may add signals which
can be detected as copy protection signals.
Source quality or tape condition beyond adjustments on the source equipment may stop a recording on this
recorder.
Do not operate the source equipment during recording on this recorder.
Operations such as pausing, resuming, fast-forwarding (CUE) and fast-reversing (REVIEW), etc. may produce
noises, which may be detected as copy protection signals. Therefore, first start playback on the source equipment
to confirm that the desired source can be played properly, and then start recording on this recorder.
Do not operate the source equipment during recording. After completing the desired scene, stop the recording on
the recorder, and then stop the playback on the source equipment. Delete unnecessary scenes using editing
functions (
page 98). If you want to operate the source equipment during recording, pause or stop the
recording. After operating the source equipment, resume the recording as above.
When recording from a camcorder
Follow the above notes. Be sure to power the camcorder by its AC adapter, not batteries. If batteries are run
down, the recording may not be finished completely.

Technical information
About recording time
On a blank 4.7 GB DVD-RAM disc, the “AT” mode
automatically sets the appropriate bit rate
The recording time of a typical VCR (Video Cassette
Recorder) is determined by the length of a video tape
and recording speed (SP, LP, etc.). Video tapes with
various recording times are available in the market.
On the other hand, the recording time of a DVD-RAM/
R/RW depends on the bit rate (Mbps: amount of data
transmitted per second), which can be varied in
MPEG2 (Moving Picture Experts Group2)
corresponded to the recording time from about 1 hour
to up to 2 hours so that you can achieve the best
picture quality. If a part of a DVD-RAM disc has
already been recorded, the “AT” mode sets the bit rate
suitable for the remaining space on the disc. (The
picture quality is determined referring the remaining
space just before recording. When the remaining
space is scarce in the disc, the picture quality may
decrease from what you set beforehand or the
recording may stop halfway.) “AT” mode is available
also on DVD-R/RW recordings.
When you want to record a music program or
animation with high picture quality, it is recommended
that you select the “XP” mode. If you select more than
6 Mbps, you can usually record with considerably
higher picture quality. However the higher you set the
bit rate, the shorter the recording time.
compression technology.
As an example, when you pour water into a bucket
from a faucet, the faster the water flows, the sooner
the bucket is filled with water. On the other hand, the
slower the water flows, the more slowly the bucket is
filled. The DVD-RAM/R/RW is, so to speak, such a
bucket, and the degree you turn the faucet is bit rate,
the time required to fill the bucket with water is the
recording time available for a disc. The higher you set
the bit rate (making much more water flow), the sooner
a disc is filled. Consequently, the recording time
becomes shorter. The lower you set the bit rate, the
longer time it takes to fill a disc.
D /M1
Sound recording format onto DVD-RAM discs. When
recording, sounds are converted into digital signals
and compressed. In playback, they are extracted to the

recording technology for consumer products of Dolby
Laboratories. Dolby Digital 192 kbps is set for
D /M1.
However a high bit rate does not always mean that the
picture quality is high. The difference between the 1.4
Mbps and 9.2 Mbps is obvious, but when comparing
similar bit rates, the difference may be insignificant.
Generally when you set the bit rate low for longer
recording time, the data volume shortage will result in
a lack of detail information. As a result, the picture
quality is decreased (more noticeable with dynamically
moving images). For example, square noises (block
noise) may occur in a scene with fast action or a
scene with light and shadows, such as a water
surface.
This recorder has 6 settings. (e.g. “SP” records about 2
hours and “LP” about 4 hours onto a blank 4.7 GB
DVD-RAM disc.
page 125) It is recommended to
consider the “SP” mode as a standard mode and use
the lower mode when you want to record for long time
regardless of the picture quality.
If you want to record for within 2 hours select the “AT”
mode.

Creating chapters
1 title is created by recording at a time, which includes 1 chapter. By dividing it into several chapters, it
will be easier to access a desired scene, and your editing or playback will be much easier.
To create chapters in a title, insert a chapter mark. Playback the content, locate a point where you want to divide, then
press CHP DIVIDE button.
The point divides the chapter (into two).You can create multiple chapters by repeating the above operation.
Notes
• Chapters cannot be created in the following modes:
Dubbing / Fast-reverse, Fast-forward / Slow-motion
• You cannot divide a title of a DVD-R/RW disc into chapters. It is possible to create chapters in a DVD-R/RW disc by selecting
an option that inserts chapter marks automatically during recording at regular intervals. (

If you want to modify the chapter division, or want to place a chapter mark more precisely monitoring the
