Using this you can simply copy the title that's currently playing from HDD to DVD, or the other way around.

A Copy List is similar to a VR mode Play List in many ways, and you'll find that the Copy List commands are similar to those available for editing a Play List. A message showing that copying has finished is displayed after copying. If the recorder is inactive and no button is pressed (remote or front panel) then the recorder will automatically go into standby after 20 minutes.
