Использование Dual Layer DVD-R дисков
На Dual Layer DVD-R дисках содержатся два записывающих слоя на одной стороне. Данный аппарат может
записывать Dual Layer DVD-R диски в видеорежиме. В результате, можно записать приблизительно в 1,8 раза
больше записи, чем на обычных DVD-R дисках. В дополнение, функции записи, воспроизведения и копирования
могут выполняться таким же образом, как и для обычных дисков. Однако, для правильного использования Dual
Layer DVD-R дисков, рекомендуется изучить следующие пункты относительно использования дисков.
• Технология Dual Layer DVD-R диска — это новый стандарт, одобренный на DVD Форуме в феврале 2005 г.
• Если нужно воспроизвести Dual Layer DVD-R диски, записанные на данном аппарате, на других DVD
магнитофонах/проигрывателях, нужно завершить диски. (Даже при этом, диски могут не воспроизводиться на
некоторых DVD магнитофонах/проигрывателях.)
Пожалуйста, внимательно изучите информацию на упаковке диска, и убедитесь в соответствии типа, версии и скорости
записи диска до покупки Dual Layer DVD-R дисков.
Проверьте тип диска.
Данный аппарат не может записывать на
DVD+R Double Layer диски.
Проверьте версию диска.
Всегда используйте Вер. 3.0
*
Dual Layer DVD-R
диски.
Некоторые диски поддерживают систему CPRM.
Подробнее о таких диска, изучите инструкцию по
эксплуатации.
*
Ver. 3.0 может быть указано на передней или
задней стороне крышки диска, в зависимости от
производителя.
Проверьте скорость записи.
Всегда используйте диски, поддерживающие
скорость записи 2x или 4x.
Данный логотип означает,
что диск является Dual Layer
DVD-R диском.

• Dual Layer DVD-R диски могут записывться на данном аппарате только в видеорежиме. Данные диски не могут
записываться в формате VR.
• При записи Dual Layer DVD-R диска, если записывающий слой переключается с первого слоя на второй,
наименования автоматически разделяются.
• На один диск можно записать до 99 наименований. Поэтому, если 99ое наименование расположено между первым
и вторым слоями, запись отменяется.
• Данный аппарат не может воспроизводить, записывать дополнительное содержание или редактировать (включая
завершение) незавершенные диски, записанные в видеорежиме на другом DVD магнитофоне.
• При переключении воспроизведения с первого слоя диска на второй, можно почувствовать паузу в воспроизведении.
• Если нужно воспроизвести Dual Layer DVD-R диски, записанные на данном аппарате, на других DVD
магнитофонах/проигрывателях, нужно завершить диски. (Даже при этом, диски могут не воспроизводиться на
некоторых DVD магнитофонах/проигрывателях.)
• Как только диск завершен, его нельзя записывать или редактировать.
• Процесс завершения может занять большее время, чем при завершении обычных DVD-R дисков. Чем больше
свободное время для записи на диске, тем дольше происходит завершение.
• При копировании на обычной скорости, наименования разделяются в месте, где копирование переключается с
первого слоя на второй. Однако, пиктограммы для наименований могут отличаться от исходных пиктограмм.
В дополнение, если количество наименований превышает 99, последнее наименование не будет копироваться.
• При высокоскоростном копировании, наименования не разделяются в месте переключения слоев.
• Об экране Copy:

При копировании на обычной
скорости, все наименования могут
поместиться на первом слое, даже
если цвет индикатора Copy List

При заполнении первого слоя
диска, запись начинается на
втором слое. В таком случае,
длина индикатора сокращается
наполовину.

Features
• HDD recording HDD
Record up to 227 hours of video (in MN1 mode) on the internal 80 GB (gigabyte) hard disk (HDD). With both recordable DVD and a high-capacity HDD in the same recorder, you have the flexibility to keep recordings on the HDD for quick access anytime, or record to DVD for archiving or playing on other DVD players.
•Copy between HDD and DVD
You can quickly and easily copy recordings between the HDD and DVD. When copying to DVD you can usually use the high-speed copy feature, which can copy an hour of video in about one minute (when recorded in SEP mode using a DVD-R Ver. 2.0 / 2.1 (16x) disc).
You can also choose to copy material at a different recording quality from the original. For example, you might want to copy an XP mode (highest quality) recording on the HDD to SP (standard play) quality on a DVD so that you can fit other recordings on the same disc.
•One Touch Copy
One Touch Copy makes copying the currently playing title from HDD to DVD, or DVD to HDD as simple as pressing a button.
•High quality, real-time copying
When recording to the HDD, picture quality data is also stored so that picture quality can be optimized when making real-time copies to DVD later.
(This is applicable only to MN16–32 HDD recordings (Video Mode Off), or MN12–32 / XP+ recordings (Video Mode On).
• Chase play HDD
Using chase play you can start watching a recording from the beginning, while continuing to record. For example, you could set a timer recording for a program that you’re going to miss the first 15 minutes of, then start watching while the recorder is still recording the program 15 minutes ahead of you.
•Simultaneous recording and playback
HDD and DVD playback and recording are completely independent. For example, you can record a broadcast program to a recordable DVD, while watching another recording you already made on the same DVD.
6
•On-screen Help
Use the HELP button on the remote control to display a help screen for the current operation.
•Disc Navigator
The on-screen Disc Navigator makes finding your way around the contents of a disc or the HDD easy. For recordable DVD and HDD content, moving thumbnail images are displayed for ease of use. The Disc Navigator is also where you can edit HDD and recordable DVD content.
•Home Menu
The Home Menu gives you on-screen access to all the recorder’s features in one convenient place, from setting up the recorder, to programming a timer recording and editing a recording.
•Progressive scan-compatible
Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan effectively doubles the amount of video information fed to your TV or monitor. The result is a stable, flicker-free image. (Check your TV/monitor for compatibility with this feature.)
•Cinema-style surround sound in your home
Connect this recorder to a Dolby Digital and/or DTScompatible AV amp/receiver to enjoy full surround sound effects from Dolby Digital and DTS DVD discs.
•Easy Timer Recording
Setting the recorder to record a program is simple from the Easy Timer Recording screen. Set the channel to record and the recording quality, then graphically set the start and end times of the recording. That’s it!
•Program up to 32 timer recordings
You can program the recorder to record up to 32 programs, up to a month in advance. As well as single programs, you can specify daily or weekly recordings, too.
* ® is a registered trademark of Gemstar Development Corporation.
The VIDEO Plus+ system is manufactured under license from Gemstar Development Corporation.
•One Touch Recording
Use One Touch Recording to start recording immediately in 30 minute blocks. Each time you press the REC button, the recording time is extended by another 30 minutes, up to six hours.

•Optimized recording
Optimized recording adjusts the recording quality automatically if a timer recording will not fit onto a disc with the settings that you made.
• Auto Start Recording from satellite receiver or other set top box
With a satellite receiver or other set top box connected to the AV2/AUTO START REC inputs of this recorder, you can start and stop recording automatically according to the timer settings of the set top box.
• Super high quality HDD recording HDD
Using the XP+ recording mode you can record super high quality video (around 15 Mbps data transfer rate) to the HDD.
•High quality 16-bit Linear PCM audio
In the LPCM recording mode, audio is recorded in uncompressed 16-bit Linear PCM format. This delivers great sounding audio to accompany the high picture quality.
•Picture quality adjustment features
During playback, you can adjust various picture quality settings to improve the picture. You can also adjust the recording picture quality. For example, if you want to make a DVD copy of an old video tape, you can optimize the picture quality before transferring it to disc.
•Find what you want to watch quickly and easily
Unlike video tape that needs to be wound to the correct place, you can jump right to the part of a DVD disc or the HDD that you want to watch. Search for a point on a disc by title, chapter or time.
•Manual recording
In addition to six preset recording quality modes, the manual recording mode allows you to access 34 different recording quality/time settings, giving you precise control over the recording.
•Record from a DV camcorder
This recorder has a built-in DV (Digital Video) input for connection to a DV camcorder. This makes it ideal for transferring camcorder footage to DVD or HDD for editing.
• Safe, non-destructive editing
When editing Play List content, the actual content of the disc (the Original content) is not touched. The edited version (the Play List content) just points to various parts of the Original content.
•Play Video mode recordings on a regular DVD
player
Discs recorded using the Video mode can be played back on regular DVD players, including computer DVD drives
compatible with DVD-Video playback*.
* ‘DVD-Video format’ recording: The use of the DVD-Video format for recording on DVD-R and DVD-RW discs is referred to as recording in ‘Video mode’ on Pioneer’s DVD recorders. Supporting playback of DVD- R / DVD-RW discs is optional for manufacturers of DVD playback equipment, and there is DVD playback equipment that does not play DVD-R or DVD-RW discs recorded in the DVD-Video format.
Note: ‘Finalization’ is required.
•WMA, MP3 and JPEG file playback
This recorder can play WMA and MP3 audio files and JPEG picture files on CD-R, CD-RW or CD-ROM discs.
•Disc Back-up
The disc back-up feature gives you a convenient way to back-up important material on a finalized Video mode DVD to another recordable DVD disc. The material is first copied to the HDD, then on to a second DVD disc.
• Recovery Recording HDD
When a timer recording is set to use DVD but the disc loaded at the time of the recording is unrecordable, the program will automatically be recorded to the HDD.
• Auto Replace Recording HDD
This feature is useful for regular timer recordings of a TV program which you don’t want to keep after watching. Each time the program is recorded, it replaces the one currently on the HDD. There’s no need to manually delete it later.
Note on copying:
Recording equipment should be used only for lawful copying and you are advised to check carefully what is lawful copying in the country in which you are making a copy. Copying of copyright material such as films or music is unlawful unless permitted by a legal exception or consented to by the rightowners.

Frequently asked questions
•What’s the difference between DVD-R and DVD-RW?
The most important difference between DVD-R and DVD-RW is that DVD-R is a record-once medium, while DVD-RW is a re-recordable/erasable medium. You can re-record/erase a DVD-RW disc approximately 1,000 times.
For more information, see About DVD recording on page 37.
•What’s VR mode?
VR (Video Recording) mode is a special mode designed for home DVD recording. It allows flexible editing of recorded material compared to ‘Video mode’. On the other hand, Video mode discs are more compatible with other DVD players.
•How do I change the format of a disc?
Both DVD-R and DVD-RW discs can be initialized for Video mode or VR mode recording. DVD-R discs are ready for Video mode recording when you first load them into the recorder. You can, however, initialize them for VR mode recording from the Disc Setup menu.
DVD-RW discs can be initialized and re-initialized for either mode at any time (although initializing will erase all the data on the disc).
•Can I play my recordable discs in a regular DVD player?
Generally, DVD-R discs and DVD-RW discs recorded in Video mode* are playable in a standard DVD player, but they must be ‘finalized’ first. This process fixes the contents of the disc to make them readable to other DVD players as DVD-Video discs.
DVD-R discs recorded in VR mode are not playable in standard DVD players, but may be playable in other DVD recorders and DVD-ROM drives (in the case of DVD-ROM drives, the disc will need to be finalized first).
DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode are playable in some players and other recorders.
Note that discs may not play due to recording or disc characteristics, scratches or dirt on the disc or pickup lens, etc.
This label indicates playback compatibility with DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode (Video Recording format). However, for discs recorded with a record-only-once encrypted program, playback can only be achieved using a CPRM compatible device.
Note that Pioneer cannot guarantee that discs recorded using this recorder will play on other players.

Note: ‘Finalization’ is required.
This recorder supports the recording of ‘copy-once’ broadcast programs using the CPRM copy protection system (see CPRM on page 38) on CPRM-compliant discs in VR mode. CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
•Do I need two DVD recorders for editing? What kind of editing can I do?
Unlike editing video tape, you only need one DVD recorder to edit discs. With VR mode discs, you can edit by making a ‘Play List’ of what to play and when to play it. On playback, the recorder plays the disc according to the Play List.

Play List
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words Original and Play List to refer to the actual content and the edited version.
•Original content refers to what’s actually recorded on the disc.
•Play List content refers to the edited version of the disc—how the Original content is to be played.
About the internal hard disk drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of equipment. Depending on the conditions under which it is used, or through careless use, it is possible that the recorded contents will be damaged or lost completely, or that normal playback and recording will not be possible. Please understand that in the event of repair or replacement of the HDD or related components, all your HDD recordings will be lost.
01
Please use the recorder following the guidelines below to protect against possible HDD failure.
The HDD should not be regarded as a place to store recordings permanently. We recommend that you back up your important recordings onto DVD-R/RW discs in order to protect against accidental loss.
Pioneer cannot under any circumstances accept resposibility for any direct or indirect loss arising from any inconvenience or loss of recorded material resulting from HDD failure.
•Install and use the recorder on a stable, level surface.
•Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
•Do not use the recorder in excessively hot or humid places, or in places that may be subject to sudden changes in temperature. Sudden changes in temperature can cause condensation to form inside the recorder. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
•Do not move the recorder immediately after switching it off. If you need to move the recorder, please follow the steps below:
1 After the message POWER OFF is shown in the display, wait at least two minutes.
2 Unplug from the wall socket.
3 Move the recorder.
•If there’s a power failure while the recorder is on there is a chance that some data on the HDD will be lost.
•The HDD is very delicate. If used improperly or in an unsuitable environment, it is possible that the HDD will fail after a few years of use. Signs of problems include playback unexpectedly freezing and noticeable block noise (mosaic) in the picture. However, sometimes there will be no warning signs of HDD failure. If the HDD fails, no playback of recorded material will be possible. In this case it will be necessary to replace the HDD unit.
Optimizing HDD performance
As you record and edit material on the HDD, the data on the disk becomes fragmented, eventually affecting the recorder’s performance. Before this happens, the recorder will warn you that it is time to optimize the HDD (which you can do from the Disc Setup menu; see
Optimize HDD on page 88).

Connecting to an AV amplifier/receiver
To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to connect this recorder to an AV amplifier/receiver using the digital optical output.
In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection for compatibility with all discs and sources.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV amplifier/receiver. Use the ordinary video output (as shown here), or the S-video output.
Important
•Noise may be output from your speakers if the recorder is not set up to work with your AV amplifier/receiver properly (see Audio Out Settings on page 95).

Other settings you can make
After setting up using the Setup Navigator, you should be ready to start enjoying your DVD recorder. It’s possible, however, that you may want to make a couple of additional settings, depending on how the recorder is set up for terrestrial TV broadcasts.
•Manual channel setting – This setting lets you skip channels where there is no station, as well as manually tune to stations. See Manual CH Setting on page 93.
•If for any reason you need to cancel the setup process before it’s completed, you will be asked the next time you switch on whether you want to start setting up again, or whether to leave it until later.
Selecting the hard disk or DVD for playback and recording
The HDD/DVD button (remote control and front panel) is used to select the hard disk (HDD) or DVD for playback and recording. The indicator in the front panel display shows which is currently selected.

•During real-time copy, the copy source playback information is displayed.
•The Video mode disc displays become the same as a DVD-Video disc once the disc is finalized.
•The total recording time figure shown in parenthesis is calculated based on a 12cm/4.7GB disc at the displayed record setting.
•Recording and playback times for TV recordings are approximately 0.1% shorter than the actual time. This is because of the slightly different frame rates of TV broadcasts versus DVD.
•The frame number is shown next to the elapsed time display when the disc is paused.
•Copy Once or Can’t Record messages may appear in the stop or recording displays. These indicate that the broadcast TV program contains copy control information.
Note
1.Data transfer rate shows the amount of video and audio information recorded on the disc. It is not an indication of picture/audio quality.
