Such devices can damage pre-recorded VHS recordings. ≥Do not place any heavy objects atop the unit, and do not install it in a confined space. Please allow for adequate air circulation. ≥The unit should not be mounted in a vertical position. It’s designed to operate in the horizontal position. ≥Pages to be referred to are indicated as (l ±±). ≥The explanations concerning discs are indicated by [DVD], and those concerning video are indicated by [VHS]. You can enjoy both DVD and VHS with the unit. This DVD Recorder can record images and sounds in high quality to rapid random access capable DVD media. This has resulted in many new features that outperform older tape formats. The following information summarizes a few of these features. ª DVD Progressive output (l 15, 19) If you connect the unit with a progressive output-compatible TV, you can enjoy higher-quality and less-flicker images than conventional TVs (of the interlace output type) can present. Finalize (l 31) This function enables you to play recorded DVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD- Video format) and +R on other players. Instant play (l 33) This function can quickly find and play a video program you wish to watch. Direct Navigator guides you to the beginning of a previously recorded video immediately. Quick view (l 21) This function allows you to watch news, information and other programs in a short time. Chasing play (l 27) There is no need to wait until recording is complete. Without stopping recording, you can play the video currently being recorded from its beginning. Instant recording (l 25) You no longer need to search for empty disc space. By pressing the recording button, the unit finds available recording space and begins recording right away. Simultaneous recording and play (l 27) With this function, you can play a previously recorded video program while recording another program. Time slip (l 22, 27) This function enables you to jump to the scene you specify during play and also while recording. One touch transfer (dub) (l 57, 59) This function can copy video from VHS to DVD and vice versa. ª VHS Long recording (l 51) With this function, you can record approx. 10 hours of video onto a T- 120 cassette, for example. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Precautions for installation Do not place the unit on amplifiers or equipment that may become hot. The heat can damage the unit.

converted back to a multi-channel audio signal, e.g., 5.1-channel, by a decoder. CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media) CPRM is technology used to protect broadcasts that are allowed to be recorded only once. Such broadcasts can be recorded only with CPRM compatible recorders and discs. Decoder A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is called decoding. Down-mixing This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found on some discs into two channels. It is useful when you want to listen to the 5.1-channel audio recorded on DVDs through your TV’s speakers. Some discs prohibit down-mixing. If this is the case, this unit can only output the front two channels. Dynamic range Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs. Dynamic range compression means reducing the gap between the loudest and softest sounds. This means you can hear dialog clearly at low volume. Film and Video DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. The unit can determine which type has been used, then uses the most suitable method of progressive output. ≥Film is 24 or 30 frames per second, with motion picture film generally being 24 frames per second. ≥Video is 60 fields per second (2 fields making up 1 frame). Finalize A process that makes play of a recorded CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, etc. possible on equipment that can play such media. You can finalize DVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format) and +R on the unit. After finalizing, the disc becomes play-only and you can no longer record or edit. However, finalized DVD-RW can be formatted to become recordable. Formatting Formatting is the process of making media such as DVD-RAM recordable on recording equipment. You can format DVD-RAM and DVD-RW (only as DVD-Video format) on the unit. Formatting irrevocably erases all contents on the disc. Frame and field Frame refers to the single images that constitute the video you see on your TV. Each frame consists of 2 fields. Frame Field Field ≥A frame still shows 2 fields, so there may be some blurring between them, but picture quality is generally better. ≥A field still shows less picture information so it may be rougher, but there is no blurring. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures. If you select JPEG as the storage system on digital cameras, etc., the data will be compressed to 1/10–1/100 of its original size. The benefit of JPEG is less deterioration in picture quality considering the degree of compression. MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) An audio compression method that compresses audio to approximately one-tenth of its size without any considerable loss of audio quality. You can play MP3s you have recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW. Pan & Scan/Letterbox In general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they will be viewed on a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio), so images often don’t fit regular TVs (4:3 aspect ratio). 2 styles of picture, “Pan & Scan” and “Letterbox”, deal with this problem. Pan & Scan: The sides are cut off so the picture fills the screen. Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the picture so the picture itself appears in an aspect ratio of 16:9. Playback control (PBC) If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information with menus displayed on the screen. (The unit is compatible with version 2.0 and 1.1.) Progressive/Interlace NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines, whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is called 480p. Using progressive output, you can enjoy the high-resolution video recorded on media such as DVD-Video. Your TV must be compatible to enjoy progressive video. Protection You can prevent accidental erasure by setting writing protection or erasure protection. Sampling frequency Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave (analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital encoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per second, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the original sound. Thumbnail This refers to a miniature representation of a picture used to display multiple pictures in the form of a list. TIFF (Tag Image File Format) This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures, a common format for storing high quality images on digital cameras and other devices.

What equipment is necessary to play multi channel surround sound? ≥DVD-Video: You can play DVD-Video multi channel surround by digitally connecting an amplifier equipped with a Dolby Digital and a DTS decoder. ≥DVD-Audio: This unit plays DVD-Audio in 2 channels. You cannot play multi channel surround sound. 15 – Can the headphones and speakers be directly connected to the unit? ≥You cannot directly connect to the unit. Connect through the amplifier etc. 15 The TV has both S-VIDEO IN terminal and COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals. Which terminal should I connect with? ≥We recommend the COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminal. Component signal outputs the color difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors. If the TV is compatible with progressive output, a high quality picture can be output because the unit’s component video output terminal outputs a progressive output signal. 15 Is my TV progressive output compatible? ≥All Panasonic TVs that have 480p input terminals are compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of TV. – Can I play DVD-Video, DVD-Audio and Video CDs bought in another country? ≥You can play them if the video standard is NTSC. ≥However, you cannot play DVD-Video if its region number does not include “1” or “ALL”. – 7 Can a DVD-Video that does not have a region number be played? ≥The DVD-Video region number indicates the disc conforms to a standard. You cannot play discs that do not have a region number. – Please tell me about DVD-R, DVD- RW, +R and +RW compatibility with the unit. ≥The unit records and plays DVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format) and +R, and plays DVD-RW (DVD Video Recording format) and +RW. ≥The unit also records and plays high speed recording compatible DVD-R, DVD-RW, +R discs. 6, 7 6 Please tell me about CD-R and CD-RW compatibility with the unit. ≥This unit plays CD-R/CD-RW discs which have been recorded in one of the following standards: CD-DA, Video CD, MP3 and still pictures (JPEG/TIFF). Close the session or finalize the disc after recording. This unit can recognize up to 99 folders (groups) and 999 files (tracks) on a disc with MP3 or still pictures (JPEG/TIFF). ≥You cannot write to a CD-R or CD-RW with the unit. 7, 23, 24 7 Can I record from a commercially purchased video cassette or DVD? ≥Most commercially sold video cassettes and DVD are copy protected; therefore, recording is usually not possible. – Can DVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format) and +R recorded on the unit be played on other equipment? ≥You can play on compatible equipment such as DVD players after finalizing the disc on this unit. However, depending on the condition of the recording, the quality of the disc and capabilities of the DVD player, play may not be possible. 31 Can I record digital audio signals using the unit? ≥You cannot record digital signals. The digital audio terminals on the unit are for output only. – Can a digital audio signal from the unit be recorded to other equipment? ≥You can record if using the PCM signal. When recording DVD, change the “Digital Audio Output” settings to the following from the SETUP menu. - PCM Down Conversion “On” - Dolby Digital “PCM” - DTS “PCM” However, only - As long as digital recording from the disc is permitted. - As long as the recording equipment is compatible with 48 kHz of sampling frequency. ≥You cannot record MP3 signals. 44 – Can I switch to SAP during recording? ≥With DVD-RAM, you can, and the audio recorded also changes. Just press [AUDIO]. ≥With DVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format), +R you cannot. Change before recording with “Select MTS” in the SETUP menu. 25 44 VHS DVD Reference
