‘DVD-Video format’ recording: The use of the DVD-
Video format for recording on DVD-R and DVD-RW discs
is referred to as recording in ‘Video mode’ on Pioneer’s
DVD recorders. Supporting playback of DVD-R / DVD-
RW discs is optional for manufacturers of DVD
playback equipment, and there is DVD playback
equipment that does not play DVD-R or DVD-RW discs
recorded in the DVD-Video format.
Note: ‘Finalization’ is required.
This recorder supports the recording of ‘copy-once’
broadcast programs using the CPRM copy protection
system (see CPRM on page 50) on CPRM-compliant
discs in VR mode. CPRM recordings can only be played
on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
• Do I need two DVD recorders for editing? What kind of
editing can I do?
Unlike editing video tape, you only need one DVD
recorder to edit discs. With VR mode discs, you can
edit by making a ‘Play List’ of what to play and when
to play it. On playback, the recorder plays the disc
according to the Play List.
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words
Original and Play List to refer to the actual content
and the edited version.
•
Original
content refers to what’s actually recorded
on the disc.
•
Play List
content refers to the edited version of the
disc—how the Original content is to be played.
About the internal hard disk drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of
equipment. Depending on the conditions under which it
is used, or through careless use, it is possible that the
recorded contents will be damaged or lost completely, or
that normal playback and recording will not be possible.
Please understand that in the event of repair or
replacement of the HDD or related components, all your
HDD recordings will be lost.
Please use the recorder following the guidelines below to
protect against possible HDD failure.
The HDD should not be regarded as a place to store
recordings permanently. We recommend that you back up
your important recordings onto DVD-R/RW discs in order to
protect against accidental loss.
Pioneer cannot under any circumstances accept
resposibility for any direct or indirect loss arising from any
inconvenience or loss of recorded material resulting from
HDD failure.
• Do not move the recorder while it is on (this includes
during EPG download when the display shows
EPG
).
• Install and use the recorder on a stable, level surface.
• Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
• Do not use the recorder in excessively hot or humid
places, or in places that may be subject to sudden
changes in temperature. Sudden changes in
temperature can cause condensation to form inside
the recorder. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
• While the recorder is switched on (including during
EPG download when the display shows
EPG
), do not
unplug from the wall socket or switch the electricity
off from the breaker switch.
• Do not move the recorder immediately after
switching it off. If you need to move the recorder,
please follow the steps below:
1
After the message
POWER OFF
is shown in the
display, wait at least two minutes.
2
Unplug from the wall socket.
3
Move the recorder.
• If there’s a power failure while the recorder is on
there is a chance that some data on the HDD will be
lost.
• The HDD is very delicate. If used improperly or in an
unsuitable environment, it is possible that the HDD
will fail after a few years of use. Signs of problems
include playback unexpectedly freezing and
noticeable block noise (mosaic) in the picture.
However, sometimes there will be no warning signs
of HDD failure. If the HDD fails, no playback of
recorded material will be possible. In this case it will
be necessary to replace the HDD unit.
Optimizing HDD performance
As you record and edit material on the HDD, the data on
the disk becomes fragmented, eventually affecting the
recorder’s performance. Before this happens, the
recorder will warn you that it is time to optimize the HDD
(which you can do from the Disc Setup menu; see
Optimize HDD
on page 88).
