If two programs have the same times (but different channels, for example), the program set most recently takes priority. · I entered a timer program, but the recorder doesn't confirm whether or not it's OK. Timer confirmation only works for DVD recordings when there is a recordable disc loaded. Also make sure that the disc is not locked (see Lock Disc on page 70) and that there are fewer than 99 titles already recorded. Note that it's possible that although the timer recording screen says OK, the recording doesn't complete successfully because of some other reason, such as a damaged disc, etc. · You can't start playback immediately after recording starts. · When scanning, no sound is output if the recorder is also recording (see Scanning discs on page 35). · You can't use this feature during Auto Start Recording, or in Auto Start Recording standby. 50 En Recording 06 Recording from an external component VR mode Video mode 4 Press ì REC when you're ready to start recording. · The recorder will only start recording from the DV IN/ OUT jack if there is a valid signal.
