Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme
Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe,
accurate timer recording. With this system, special code
signals are transmitted together with the audio/video
signals. These code signals control your video recorder and
have precedence over advertised times you preset in the
timer. This means that your recorder will start and stop
recording when the preset TV programmes actually start
and end — even if the broadcast time of a preset TV
programme is changed.
NOTES:
●
PDC Recording is also possible when a satellite receiver
or a cable system is connected to AV2 IN on your
recorder.
●
PDC recording is also possible via the AV1 IN/OUT
connector.
