1It is not possible to record or play continuously from one side of a
double sided disc to the other.
2When “Recording time in EP mode” has been set to “EP (6Hours)” in
the Setup menu (¼60).
The sound quality is better when using “EP (6Hours)” than when
using “EP (8Hours)”.
3Refer to “Recording to DVD-R DL and +R DL” (¼19).
Notes
This unit uses variable bit rate (VBR) recording which varies
the amount of data recorded to suit the picture quality, so actual
recording times and remaining recording times shown by the unit
will be different. ([-R]DL] [+R]DL] The difference will be especially
noticeable.)
Use a disc enough remaining blank space.
When recording to DVD-RAM using EP (8Hours) mode, play may
not be possible on DVD players, even if they are compatible with
DVD-RAM. In this case use EP (6Hours) mode.

FR (Flexible recording mode)
Using “Flexible Recording” is convenient in these kinds of situations:
− When the amount of free space on the disc makes selecting an
appropriate recording mode difficult
− When you want to record a long programme with the best
picture quality possible
e.g.,
Recording a 90 minutes programme to 4.7 GB DVD-RAM disc:
− If you select XP mode, the programme will not fit on one disc.
A second disc is necessary for
30 minutes of the programme.
