Care and Safety Information
CAUTION!
Cleaning discs
High voltage! Do not open.
You run the risk of getting an
electric shock.
Some problems occur (frozen picture,
sound disruptions, picture distortions)
because the disc inside the unit is dirty.
To avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.
The machine does not contain any
user-serviceable parts. Please leave
all maintenance work to qualified
personnel.
To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.
Setup precautions
Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a flat, hard and stable
surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.
– Do not position the set on top of
other equipment that might heat it up
(e.g., receiver or amplifier).
– Do not put anything under the set (e.g.,
CDs, magazines).
– Install this unit near the AC outlet and

Product Information (continued)
FlexTime
Special features
You can watch or recall a TV programme while
it is still being recorded. You do not have to
wait until the end of the recording before
starting playback. You can also watch a
different programme from the hard disk while
it is recording something else.
Philips provides the best possible connection
between your recorder and other home
cinema equipment. The recorder is controlled
by external devices (for example, receivers
and TVs) via Cinema Link and is automatically
set to the right system settings.
Instant Replay
You can repeat a scene of a live TV
programme by pressing JUMP BACK button
on the remote control, as often as you like. If
you wish to return to the live TV programme,
just press TUNER.
With this function you can align the sequence
of the channels on your TV with those on
your recorder. Make sure you have
connected the TV to the EXT1 TO TV-I/O
socket of this recorder.
Pause Live TV
A live TV programme is now under your
control. You can pause the programme by
pressing PAUSE button and resume playback
at the scene it was interrupted by pressing
PLAY button. If you want to return to the live
TV programme, just press TUNER.
This function enables you to record a
programme from your Satellite Receiver or
any other devices. Make sure that the device is
connected to the EXT2- AUX I/O socket of
this recorder, and the timer setting has to be
done on the connected device.
i.LINK, is also known as ‘FireWire’ and ‘IEEE
1394’. This connection is used for the transfer
of high bandwidth digital signals as used by
digital video (DV) devices. It carries all audio
and video signals via a single cable.
Direct Record
This function allows you to instantly record the
programme you see on the TV without tuning
this recorder to the same programme.
This is a simple programming system for
recorders. To use it, enter the programming
number associated with your television
programme. You can find this number in your
favourite listings magazine.
Time Shift Buffer
As soon as you turn on this recorder, the
programme showing on the TV will be stored
into the ‘Time Shift Buffer’. It acts as a
temporary HDD storage of your recordings,
the contents will be automatically deleted after
a time period of 6 hours or when you turn off
this recorder. To store the contents on the
hard disk permanently, you have to mark the
section in the ‘Time Shift Buffer’ for recording
to prevent them from being deleted.
The GUIDE Plus+ system lists your TV channel
programming information. You can use it to
schedule recordings, glance at upcoming
programme content, or change channels at
your external receiver/cable box using this
recorder’s remote control.

sockets
– an A/V receiver or amplifier with a
digital multi-channel sound decoder.
– a receiver with two-channel digital
stereo (PCM).
You can connect the recorder to a two
channel stereo system (mini system, TV)
or receiver in order to enjoy the stereo
sound system.
OR
Use an audio cable (red/white - not
supplied) to connect the OUT2-
AUDIO L/R sockets to the audio input
sockets of the connected device.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of disc should I use for
recording?
What are Titles and Chapters?
A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters,
which are similar to the Titles and Chapters of
a book. A Title is often a complete movie and
is broken down into Chapters, or individual
scenes from the movies.
You can only record on DVD±R, DVD±RW
or DVD+R DL discs. DVD±R/±RW is the
most compatible recordable DVD format in
the market today. They are fully compatible
with most of the existing DVD-Video players
and DVD-ROM drives in computers.
Title
Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter
What is the capacity of a DVD±R
and DVD±RW?
chapter markers
4.7GB, or equivalent to six CDs. You can
store only one hour of recording on a single
disc at the highest quality (DVD standard) and
about 8 hours recording at the lowest quality
(VHS standard).
Programmes are recorded as a single title.
They may consist of one chapter or a few
chapters within a title, depending on the
recording settings.
What is the difference between
DVD±R and DVD±RW?
How do I set up Titles and
DVD±R is “recordable” and DVD±RW is
“erasable” and “rewritable”. With a DVD±R,
you can record multiple sessions on the same
disc. But when the disc is full, you cannot
record any more on the disc. The DVD±RW
allows you to record over the same disc
literally hundreds of times.
Chapters?
The recorder will automatically create a new
Title every time you start a new recording.
You can then add Chapters to these
recordings manually or have them
automatically inserted at a specific intervals.
What does “finalising” a disc do?
Finalising a disc locks the disc so it can no
longer be recorded. This is only required for
DVD±R. It will then be compatible with
virtually any DVD player. To close a disc
without finalising it, simply stop recording and
eject the disc. You will still be able to record
on the disc if there is storage space for more
recordings.
What is DV IN socket?
DV (Digital Video) IN socket on this recorder
is an i.LINK-compliant input socket. You can
connect a DV-equipped camcorder to this
recorder using a single DV cable for copying
digital video, digital audio and data.
– This recorder is only compatible with DV-
format (DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital satellite
tuners and Digital VHS video recorders are
not compatible.
How good is the quality of the
– You cannot connect more than one DV
camcorder at a time to this recorder.
– You cannot control this recorder from
external equipment connected via the DV IN

the DV IN socket.

Glossary
JPEG: A very common digital still picture format.
A still-picture data compression system proposed
by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which
features small decrease in image quality in spite of
its high compression ratio.
Analogue: Sound that has not been turned into
numbers. Analogue sound varies, while digital sound
has specific numerical values. These sockets send
audio through two channels, the left and right.
Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal
sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical
ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, and that of wide-
screens is 16:9.
MP3: A file format with a sound data compression
system. “MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture
Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By
using the MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can
contain about 10 times more data then a regular
CD.
AUDIO OUT sockets: Red and white sockets on
the back of the system that send audio to another
system (TV, Stereo, etc.).
MPEG: Motion Picture Experts Group. A
collection of compression systems for digital audio
and video.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on
a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is
composed of several chapters. Each chapter is
assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate
the chapter you want.
PBC: Playback Control. Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling
playback. By using menu screens recorded on a
Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can
enjoy interactive playback and searching.
Digital: Sound that has been converted into
numerical values. Digital sound is available when
you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or
OPTICAL sockets. These sockets send audio
through multiple channels, instead of just two
channels as analogue does.
PCM: Pulse Code Modulation. A digital audio
encoding system.
Progressive Scan: The progressive scan displays
twice the number of frames per seconds than
ordinary TV system. It offers higher picture
resolution and quality.
Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing
selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles,
etc recorded on a DVD.
Region code: A system allowing discs to be played
only in the region designated. This unit will only play
discs that have compatible region codes. You can
find the region code of your unit by looking on the
product label. Some discs are compatible with more
than one region (or ALL regions).
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system
developed by Dolby Laboratories containing up to
six channels of digital audio (front left and right,
surround left and right, centre and subwoofer).
Finalise: A process that makes playback of a
recorded DVD±R or CD-R possible on device that
can play such media. You can finalise DVD±R on
this unit. After finalising, the disc becomes play only
and you can no longer record or edit on the disc.
S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending
separate signals for the luminance and the colour.
You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S-Video
In socket.
Index Picture Screen: A screen that gives an
overview of a DVD±RW or DVD±R. An Index
Picture represents each recording.
Title: The longest section of a movie or music
feature on DVD. Each title is assigned a title
number, enabling you to locate the title you want.
HDD (Hard disk drive): This is a mass data
storage device used in computers, etc. Disks are
flat, circular, rigid plates coated with a thin magnetic
media. Magnetic heads record data on the rapidly
spinning disks. This facilitates the reading and
writing of large amounts of data at high speed.
VIDEO OUT socket: Yellow socket on the back
of the system that sends the DVD picture video to
a TV.
