Record programmes
The DVD player gives you the opportunity to
record and store television, satellite (DTV*) and
set-top box programmes on the hard disc.
You decide whether to store them temporarily or
permanently. The instant and timed recordings
you make are stored in HARD DISC CONTENT, and
the on-going programmes you pause and replay
are put temporarily in a six-hour Replay buffer. If
you wish, you can move saved programmes from
the buffer to the HARD DISC CONTENT. You can
also record the programmes stored on the hard
disc on a DVD disc.
With this DVD player, you do not have to clutter up
your home with piles of video tapes. You can store
your recordings on the hard disc and bring up an
overview of recordings on your television screen
at any time.
In order to ensure that recordings are not deleted
from the hard disc, you can protect them from
automatic deletion. Refer to ‘Protect a recording’
on page 28.

CD. Switching DVD chapters causes the appropriate
chapter number to be shown in the display for a
few seconds.

you can not switch channel until the signal is
found. If you do so, the DVD player will not
record the programme you wish to record.
