Note about PDC/VPS and recording
When PDC (Program Delivery Control) or VPS
(Video Programming System) is used, it means that
the broadcaster attaches a coded signal to every
programme they broadcast, ensuring that a
recording will be recorded in full, even though the
broadcasting of the programme in question was
delayed, causing start and stop times to change.
If PDC or VPS signals follow the broadcast
programmes you record, and the PDC/VPS facility
is set to On in the video tape recorder’s setup
menu, then the title of the programme you want
to record will be highlighted instead of the start
time. There is no need to consider start and stop
times, just accept the status line which appears
instead of the programme title. If necessary, you
can, of course, change the information displayed.
If PDC/VPS signals are not broadcast by the current
channel, your recordings are preset by start and
stop times, and will not adapt to broadcast delays
or extensions. You will see the times at the top of
the screen when you store a programme to be
recorded.
