After finalising After a DVD-R/RW disc (Video mode) has been finalised, it is possible to play back the recorded programmes (video and/or audio) on a standard DVD video player as a DVD VIDEO disc.
DVD-R 12 cm: 4.7 GB 8 cm: 1.4 GB General Ver. 2.0 (Video mode)
The above table is based on the information as of February 2004. Recording and playback may not be performed depending on the characteristics and condition of the disc used, leading to unsatisfactory results. Using discs manufactured by JVC is recommended since they have been tested to be compatible with this unit.
DVD-RAM Discs It is only possible to use discs which conform with DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 or 2.1.
Edited titles are displayed as the DVD menu in video mode. It is impossible to record, edit or delete the data either in video mode or in VR mode. Either in video mode or in VR mode, although the disc can be played back on DVD players from other manufacturers, sometimes it may not be possible to play back depending on the disc and recording conditions. It is impossible to record on CD-R/RW or DVD-R discs used for authoring. It is impossible to record onto DVD-R/RW (Video mode) discs broadcasts that allow you to copy once. The copy once programmes can only be recorded onto DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode.
It is impossible to record on DVD-RAM discs which do not conform to this standard. If you use a disc formatted under a different standard version, format it on this unit before use. It may not be possible to record, play back, edit or dub a DVD-RAM disc even if it conforms to the standard if it was recorded or edited on the devices from other manufacturers or on a PC, or if it has far too many titles, or if there is very little available capacity remaining on the disc. Some DVD-RAM discs are contained in a cartridge. This unit cannot handle this type of disc. Remove the disc from the cartridge (only discs with a removable cartridge); or the use of DVD-RAM discs not contained in a cartridge is recommended. DVD-RAM discs recorded on this unit cannot be played back on an incompatible DVD player. It is possible to record copy-once programmes of digital broadcasts only onto 4.7/9.4 GB DVD-RAM discs (2.8 GB DVD-RAM discs are not compatible).
NOTE:
The following may result if you play back a DVD-R disc recorded on another unit. The disc does not play. A mosaic pattern (block noise) appears on the screen. Video or audio may be dropped out. The unit stops during playback.

Recording Medium And Format

DVD-RAM
Recording and erasing can be performed as many times as possible on a disc. Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting unwanted parts. While recording, it is possible not only to start playback of a programme currently being recorded, but also to watch another programme previously recorded.
Audio CD/Video CD/SVCD Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video CD/ SVCD discs. However, some discs are not divided into tracks.
Audio CD or Video CD/SVCD Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4
DVD-RW (VR mode)
Recording and erasing can be performed as many times as possible on a disc. Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting unwanted parts.
JPEG/MP3 Disc (CD-R/RW/ROM) MP3/JPEG files put in directories nested in several levels on a disc will be organized as if they were put in single level directories (groups) by the MP3/JPEG Navigation of this unit. ( pg. 66) File structure of a disc before starting the MP3/JPEG Navigation
DVD-RW (Video mode)
Can be played back on other DVD players. New recording can be performed by erasing all the data on a disc once played back.
DVD-R
Can be played back on other DVD players. Suitable when keeping a recorded disc for a long time.
File Structure Of Discs

DVD VIDEO Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called titles. Each title has a number (title number) that can be used to select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called chapters. Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs are not divided into titles and chapters. When you record a programme on a DVD-RAM/RW (VR mode) disc A single recording session results in a single title (a single chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused, or audio changes from monaural or bilingual to stereo due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during playback. ( pg. 29) When you record a programme on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode) disc A single recording session results in a single title (a single chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused, or audio changes due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during either recording or playback. Once the disc has been finalised, these chapter marks are deleted and new chapter marks are assigned automatically approximately every 5 minutes.
DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R or DVD VIDEO disc Title 1 Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Title 2 Chapter 2 Chapter 3
Directory MP3 file JPEG file File structure of the disc after starting the MP3/JPEG Navigation Files are automatically grouped as follows and displayed on the MP3/JPEG Navigation screen. Data is displayed in the alphabetical order of file name. Files are grouped based on roots.
In Video mode, even before finalising, it is impossible to perform editing operations other than changing the disc name and/or title names and deleting programmes and/or titles. After finalising, it is impossible to perform editing operations.
This unit can recognise up to 9 hierarchies including directories and files. Also, it can recognise up to 250 files in each group, and up to 99 groups on a disc.
NOTES:
Video CD/SVCD discs that support Playback Control (PBC)

The contents of a disc are recorded into several hierarchies, and played back according to the instructions on the screen while navigating through the hierarchies. It is also possible to playback recorded tracks consecutively without activating the PBC function even when playing a PBC-compatible disc. ( pg. 30)
Regarding the contents recorded on discs

Some files may not be played back depending on the file types and other factors.

Care And Handling Of Discs

How to handle discs When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction. Label side Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesives on its surface. Recording side Make sure that discs are not scratched and dirty on the recording side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that a DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirt when removed from cartridge then put back in after use. Storage Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car! Maintenance of discs If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the centre outwards. If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents. CAUTION: Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.) These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.

NOTES:
It is recommended to format a DVD-RAM disc before use if you use the disc on this unit for the first time. When using a brand-new DVD-RW disc, format the disc either in VR mode or in Video mode. ( pg. 87) Recordings made on DVD-R/RW disc must be finalised to play back on other DVD players. Perform Finalise A Disc (DVD Deck Only) ( pg. 88). You can record up to 99 programmes and 999 play lists on each disc. Some programmes can only be recorded one time. When recording is started, an index of the first part of recording is automatically recorded. ( pg. 59) To record satellite programmes, refer to page 50. To delete the index, refer to page 61. Recording sometimes may stop or cannot be performed even if there is enough available capacity remaining on the disc.

44 EN OPERATIONS ON DVD DECK Free Rate Function

To record the entire programme, the unit automatically set the appropriate recording mode depending on the combination of the total time of the programme to be recorded and either the remaining disc space or the specified recording time (from 60 minutes to 480 minutes). 8 To record the entire programme within the actual remaining disc space Select FR (JUST) in a recording mode selection procedure. ( pg. 45, 47)
Note that this function is available only for timer programming recording.
NOTES:
8 To record the entire programme by specifying the desired recording time Select FR60FR360, FR420 or FR480 in a recording mode selection procedure. ( pg. 42, 45, 47) 8 To record a 25-min. long daily programme five times just on a same disc for example Perform VIDEO Plus+ Timer Programming ( pg. 45) procedure. Be sure to set the recording mode to FR125 and set Weekly/Daily Rec Function to MONFRI in step 6 to fit the total recording time to the whole disc space.
You can programme this unit to timer-record, regardless of the disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough, recording may stop in the middle of a programme. To avoid this, make sure of the disc remaining time before setting timer-programming. (Example) If you programmed to timer-record for 60 minutes in SP mode on a 120-minute disc, the disc remaining time would be 30 minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode, 120 minutes in LP mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240 minutes in FR480 mode. Timer-recording will not complete beyond these remaining times. The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same as the recording time of FR480 mode. When timer-programming a long programme in FR (JUST) mode on a disc whose remaining time is short, it is recommended checking the disc remaining time in FR480 mode to see if the remaining time is enough for the programme. Even if more than one programme are timer-programmed in FR (JUST) mode, only the first one is recorded. In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the disc. There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the disc where the unit switches the mode.
Receiving Stereo And Bilingual Programmes

Your unit is equipped with a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible. When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
Type of Broadcast Being Received On-screen Display

SUPERIMPOSE must be set to AUTO. Otherwise the on-screen displays will not appear. ( pg. 81) If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the broadcast might be received in monaural with better quality.
Selection Of The Audio Channel To Be Recorded On A Disc

When a programme is recorded on a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc in VR mode, all audio channels of the receiving programme are recorded on the disc. When you record a programme on a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc in video mode, select the desired audio channel (from among NICAM 1/MAIN, NICAM 2/SUB, MONO) to be recorded on the disc. ( pg. 81) NOTE:

PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this system, special code signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals. These code signals control your unit and have precedence over the advertised times which you may have preset into the timer. This means that your unit will start and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed from what has been advertised. PDC is currently available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC service in some areas. All channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme listing guide for latest information. If the channel you intend to record does not offer a PDC service your unit will not start recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to OFF if PDC is not available on your selected channel. (See step 6 on page 45.) NOTES:
When you use Manual Timer Programming, set the start time (PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time than advertised will result in no recording.

To Timer-Record Weekly Or Daily Serials: anytime during steps 7 through 9, press number key 9 for weekly serials or number key 8 for daily serials (Monday Friday). Either WEEKLY or DAILY appears on the TV screen. Pressing the button again makes the corresponding indication disappear. You can programme this unit to timer-record as many as 8 programmes. If you try to programme the unit to record a ninth, PROGRAMME FULL appears on the TV screen. To record the extra programme, you must first cancel any unnecessary programmes. ( pg. 58) In case of a power failure after programming, the units memory backup keeps your selections for approximately 5 seconds. Programmes that start after midnight must have the next days date. To record the programmes received by satellite receiver, record on the DVD discs. For details, refer to Manual Timer Programming ( pg. 46).
3 Press PROG/CHECK to access the

Programme Check screen.
PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this system, special code signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals. These code signals control your unit and have precedence over the advertised times which you may have preset into the timer. This means that your unit will start and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed from what has been advertised. PDC is currently available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC service in some areas. All channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme listing guide for latest information. If the channel you intend to record does not offer a PDC service your unit will not start recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to OFF if PDC is not available on your selected channel. (See step 7 on page 56.) NOTES:
When you use Manual Timer Programming, set the start time (PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time than advertised will result in no recording. PDC recording is not possible when a satellite receiver or a cable system is connected to L-2 IN/DECODER connector on your unit. PDC recording is also possible via the L-1 IN/OUT connector.
