The outputs of 3, 4, 5, 8 and 9 are dedicated to modules of digital signal processing (DVD).
The video and audio outputs of 6 and 7 are dedicated to modules of digital (DVD) or analogue (VHS) signal processing.
Both groups of outputs are used for analogue and digital sources. But there are limitations, e.g.: During recording or scheduled recording on DVD, the VHS
playback is only possible on outputs of 6 and 7.
For a conventional tube television, we recommend using the Scart terminal. You retain a high-quality RGB video picture with an RGB-compatible television.

If you want to use a progressive-capable LCD/plasma television or LCD projector, connect it to COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to get a high quality

If you are recording on the DVD drive, the TV does not automatically change to
the input channel.
If you connect this unit with an HDMI cable to
a Panasonic television set with HDAVI control
function, then both units can be controlled.
If you connect this unit with an fully wired

messages are being displayed, and even when a Timer-controlled recording
has been programmed or during playback.
The unit does not switch off during a recording with the REC button, the
Copying function or while a disc is being finalized.
A TV takes a certain time to change over the
input channel for the DVD Recorder

Your HDD (Hard disk drive) is a high-precision recording unit with a particularly long
recording capacity and high recording speed.
The recording is made in DVD Video Recording format (VR).

Films or parts of films can be edited and deleted. Deleting films releases previously
used storage space. Creating playback lists does not take up any additional storage
space.
As well as the TIME SLIP function, dual-channel sound and 16:9 format are also
supported.
The hard disk automatically goes into the SLEEP mode if no function is selected for
longer than 30 minutes and no disc is placed in the drive. An unexpected noise may
be caused when switching on and off or during the SLEEP mode. The unit is working
normally.
Your hard disk is a short-term memory medium. You should not use it for permanent
data storage of recordings. Use your hard disk to view, edit and save recordings on a
disc. If you encounter any problems, save the entire contents of your hard disk on
another medium (disc). Please take the unit to your customer service. Recordings on
a damaged hard disk cannot be rescued.
The unit must not be moved or exposed to vibrations or jolts because otherwise this
would damage the hard disk.
Do not disconnect the mains plug during recording or playback. This can cause data
loss.
Cigarette smoke, insect spray and other vapours must not penetrate the unit because
otherwise this can cause faults.
Do not place the unit on any appliance which gives off heat. Do not erect the unit in
places where condensation occurs, for example
- rooms with high humidity levels
- in the direct air flow of an air-conditioning system
- rooms with great fluctuations in temperature
Condensation forms as moisture on a cold surface which is exposed to a sudden
extreme change in temperature. This condensation can damage the hard disk and
other parts inside the unit.
In such cases, do not switch the unit on. Wait for approx. two to three hours for the
moisture to evaporate.
When changing the location of the unit,
- switch the unit off. Wait until "BYE" goes off in the display.
- disconnect the mains plug from the terminal.
- do not lift the unit up until it has stopped completely (after
approx. 2 minutes), because the hard disk runs on for a brief period after
switching off.
Panasonic does not assume any liability for direct or indirect problems resulting in
the loss of recordings or edited contents (data) and does not guarantee that the
recorded or edited contents will work perfectly. This also applies to any repairs to
the unit (also refers to parts which are not linked to the hard disk). No
compensation is made for lost recordings or discs which have become defective.

DivX (Direct-Video-eXpress) is a format for saving compressed audio and video data

more compact manner to approx. one-tenth the size of the uncompressed file format
with satisfactory quality. Thus, the content of a DVD (approx. 8 GB) can be saved to

Information about high speed copying
The High Speed Mode allows for fast copying of titles, pictures and playlists. In the

compatible discs, press ENTER to confirm [DVD Speed for High Speed Copy].
-R
-RW(V) +R
-R DL
+R DL
+RW
But in the following cases, copying in High Speed Mode does not work:
- the playback lists consist of titles with differing recording modes
- the playback lists consist of several titles with the FR recording mode
- the playback lists contain different audio modes
- the titles contain many deleted segments
- when copying titles with MPEG2 moving pictures from SD card to HDD
+RW
+R +R DL
-
(displayed by
titles recorded in FR and EP mode (min. 5 hours long)
)
If you select a recording mode with higher quality than the original, this does not
improve the picture quality. However, this does prevent the picture quality from
deteriorating.
Notes for copying to DVD-R DL/+R DL
If the disc does not have sufficient storage space, the unit switches to the FR Mode.
If the unit is not copying in the High Speed Mode, titles are copied in the original
recording mode and playback lists in the FR Mode.
If you are not copying in high speed mode,
the titles are copied temporarily on the hard
disk at normal speed and then to the DVD-R
DL/+R DL at high speed.The temporary titles
are then deleted from the hard disk again.
Copying to DVD-R DL/+R DL is not possible if
- there is not enough storage space on the
hard disk.
Timer-controlled recording takes place during copying always on HDD, regardless of
which recording drive was selected.
When recording titles limited for one-off copying, no playback list can be reproduced.
Titles limited for one-off copying are deleted from the hard disk after copying onto
CPRM-compatible DVD-RAM.
Titles with recording limitations and playback lists cannot be transferred to the same
copying list.
- the number of titles on the hard disk and
the number of titles copied to the
DVD-R DL/+R DL together exceed 500.
If you stop recording a title in the middle in the High Speed Mode, the corresponding
title is not recorded. Even if the title was not copied to DVD-R, DVD-RW or +R, the
remaining capacity of the disc is reduced.
Recording and playback while copying in High Speed Mode

Recording and playback is possible while copying in High Speed Mode but

- delayed playback is not possible and the copy list cannot be edited
- does not apply when copying with automatic finalization
- does not apply when copying MPEG2 moving pictures to an SD card
- no playback of freeze frames

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital interface for Audio and Video.
One single cable transfers both digital video data (picture data) and also digital audio
data. There is no longer any need to convert analogue-digital or digital-analogue. HDMI
works without data compression so that there is therefore no quality loss from the
system.
