What kind of disc should I use for
recording?
You can only record on DVD±R and
DVD±RW discs. DVD±R/±RW is the most
compatible recordable DVD format on the
market today. They are fully compatible with
most of the existing DVD-Video players and
DVD-ROM drives in computers.
What is the capacity of a
DVD±R/±RW disc?
4.7GB, or equivalent to 6 CDs. You can store
only one hour of recordings on a single disc at
the highest quality (DVD standard) and about
6 hours recordings at the lowest quality (VHS
standard).
The recording mode indicates the number of
hours that will t on a single disc.
What is the difference between
DVD±R and DVD±RW?
DVD±R is “recordable” and DVD±RW is
“erasable” and “rewritable”. With a DVD±R,
you can record multiple sessions on the same
disc, but when the disc is full, you cannot
record any more on the disc. The DVD±RW
allows you to record over the same disc
repeatedly.
What is DV?
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can
connect a DV-equipped camcorder to this
recorder using a single DV cable for input and
output of audio, video, data and control signals.
– This recorder is only compatible with
DV-format (DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital
satellite tuners and Digital VHS video
recorders are not compatible.
– You can only connect one DV camcorder
to this recorder at any one time.
– You cannot control this recorder via the
external equipment connected to the DV IN
jack.
Can I copy a VHS tape or DVD
from an external player?
Yes, but only if the VHS tape or DVD is not
copy protected.
What are Titles and Chapters?
A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters,
which are similar to the Titles and Chapters of
a book. A Title is often a complete movie and
is broken down into Chapters, or individual
scenes from the movies.
Title
Chapter
Title
Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter
cha
p
ter markers
Programs are recorded as a single title; it may
consist of one chapter or a few chapters
within a title, depending on the recording
settings.
How do I set up Titles and Chapters?
The DVD recorder automatically creates a
new Title every time you start a new
recording. You can then add Chapters to these
recordings manually or have them
automatically inserted at 5-minute intervals.
What does “nalizing” a disc do?
Finalizing a disc locks the disc so it can no
longer be recorded and is only required for
DVD±R. It will then be compatible with
virtually any DVD player. To close a disc
without nalizing it, simply stop recording and
eject the disc. You will still be able to record
on the disc if there is room for more
recordings.
How good is the quality of the
recording?
There are a few quality levels to choose from,
ranging from “1 hour mode” (High Quality) to
“6 hours mode” (VHS quality). Press REC
MODE button on the remote control to
choose the quality level that best suits your
purpose and the length of material.

Cleaning discs
Some problems occur because the disc
inside the recorder is dirty (frozen
picture, sound disruptions, picture
distortions). To avoid these problems,
discs should be cleaned on a regular
basis.
To clean a disc, use a micro bre
cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the
center to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for analog
discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the
DVD recorder operates at a higher
power than regular DVD or CD players,
cleaning CDs intended for DVD or CD
players may damage the optical unit
(laser). Therefore, refrain from using a
cleaning CD.
About recycling

General Information
Introduction
Your Philips DVD recorder allows you to
record the TV programs or duplicate
camcorder recordings to a DVD±RW or
DVD±R and play pre-recorded DVDs.
The recordings you make on the
recorder will play on most of the DVD
players and DVD-ROM drives. The
DVD±R discs have to be nalized before
they can be played on other DVD players.
Please take time to read this user manual
before using your DVD recorder. It
contains important information and notes
regarding operation.
Helpful Hints:
– If you have questions or if problems come
up during operation, please see the chapter
‘Troubleshooting’.
– If you need further assistance, please call
the customer support service for your
country. The corresponding telephone
numbers and e-mail addresses are given in
the guarantee booklet.
– Refer to the type plate on the rear or
bottom of the product for identication and
supply ratings.
Accessories supplied
– Remote control and batteries
– Audio/Video (AV) cables
– RF coaxial cable
– Quick Use Guide
– User Manual
Region codes
DVD lms are usually not released at the
same time in all regions of the world,

The regional code is shown at the back
panel of this device. If the DVD is
marked with a different region code, it
cannot be played on this device.

Option 1: Using an Audio cable
You can connect the DVD recorder to a
two channel stereo system or receiver in
order to enjoy the stereo sound system.
Use an audio cables (red/white ends - not
supplied) to connect the AUDIO L/R
sockets to one of the following devices
with the same input sockets.
– a stereo system (for example, TV or
mini system).
– a receiver with two channel analog
stereo.
Option 2: Using a Coaxial cable
You can connect the DVD recorder to
an AV amplier/receiver with a digital
multichannel sound decoder in order to
enjoy multichannel surround sound.
Use a coaxial cable (not supplied).
Connect the recorder to the receiver/
amplier from the coaxial jack of the
recorder to the digital input of the
receiver.
Before you start operating, set the Digital
Audio Output accordingly (see page 53).
If the Digital Output setting does not
match your stereo’s capabilities, the
stereo may produce a strong, distorted
sound or no sound at all.
Helpful Hint:
– Do not connect your TV’s audio output
jacks to the AUDIO L/R (IN-EXT) jacks on
this DVD recorder as this may cause
unwanted noise.

Helpful Hints:
– You may use the S-VIDEO (Y/C) jack
instead of VIDEO (CVBS) jack if the
connected device has the same S-VIDEO
input/output jack. This video connection
provides better picture quality.
– Most commercial video cassettes and
DVDs are copy-protected and therefore
cannot be recorded.
– Connect the DVD recorder directly to the
TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device
in between, the picture quality may be poor
because of the copy protection system built
into the DVD recorder.
