Configured recording (HDD or DVD discs)
Configured recording lets you record the programme after a quick adjustment of the duration,
the quality and the destination of the programme to be recorded to the hard disc (HDD) or to a
DVD R/RW disc.
Note:You can start a recording at any time by pressing the DVD REC button on the front twice to record
to a DVD R/RW disc or the HDD REC button on the front to record to the hard disc (also using the REC
button on the remote control).
1. Load a disc - Open the disc tray by pressing OPEN/CLOSE. Put in a disc with the printed
side upwards. Close the tray using the
OPEN/CLOSE key.
Recordable discs: see note on page 11.
2. Press the REC key on the remote control.
Note: for an immediate recording to the hard disc, press the REC button on the remote control twice.
3. You can choose a duration using the Bkey. Each time you press the B key the duration is
increased by 30 minutes up until the maximum time remaining on the disc is attained.When
the maximum duration is reached,pressing again on B displays --h--min which indicates the
precise time remaining, for example 1 hour 12 min.
4. The time remaining on the disc is indicated next to Recording quality. If you modify the
quality you will also modify the duration, which may be useful with a DVD R/RW disc which
has little space. Select Recording Quality with the
▼ key, then select a lower recording
quality using the B key, this will increase the amount of time available on the disc. However,
for a recording to the hard disc that you can copy later to a DVD R/RW disc, increase the
quality.

disc, change the setting with the key
B.
