How to use the DVD Recorder & VCR

Step 1

Select the disc type

Step 3

There are two different recording methods: Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified as a Date : Once, Daily or Weekly. Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP (extended mode).
This unit can record on the following types of discs. If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable DVDRW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you want to save a recording without any changes, choose a non-rewritable DVDR.

Step 4

Playing

Step 2

Format the disc to start recording
Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu and then immediately start playback. A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub sections called chapters. During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be created automatically when you finalize recording on DVD-R / DVD-RW discs in Video mode. You can make your own chapters on DVD+RWs and edit them using the Chapter Edit menu. The chapters length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

Step 1: Connecting the Antenna Cable
There are several ways to connect your DVD Recorder & VCR. Select the antenna connection that best suits you below.
Antenna + DVD Recorder & VCR + TV : No Cable box
You can record non-scrambled channels by selecting the channel on the DVD Recorder & VCR. Also use this method if you watch channels without cable box.
If you are using an off-air antenna that has 300ohm twin flat leads, use an external antenna connector (300-75 ohm adaptor : not supplied) to connect the antenna to the DVD Recorder & VCR.
If you have two separate antennas (one VHF and the other UHF), use a UHF/VHF combineradaptor (available at most electronics shops) to connect the antenna to the DVD Recorder & VCR.
