1 Functioning of the device Your Philips DVD/HDD recorder mainly consists of the following components: HDD recorder For recording in a temporary storage on the HDD (Time shift Buffer) As soon as you turn on the DVD/HDD recorder, it automatically records the current TV channel selected on the DVD/HDD recorder in this temporary storage. As a result, you can 'rewind' to a scene ( D ) or watch a still picture ( PAUSE 9 ), while the current TV show is still being recorded. Recordings in the time shift buffer are only temporarily available (factory settings: 3 hours). For storing recordings on the HDD You can mark recordings in the time shift buffer for storage on the HDD using REC/OTR n . These recordings will be transferred to the HDD when you switch off the device using STANDBY m or when the time periode of the time shift buffer ( e.g. 3 hours) expires. DVD Recorder For archiving (copying) HDD recordings on a DVD RW/ R Recordings on the HDD can be selected in a title overview screen (Media Browser) and then copied (archived) on a DVD RW/ R. TV tuner For recordings independently from your TV set You can use your DVD/HDD recorder as a TV tuner, allowing you the comfort of pausing a running TV show and continue watching it later. You can make recordings on the HDD without having to turn on the TV set. DVD/CD/MP3 player For playing back recorded DVDs, CDs , CD<RW/Rs You can use this device to play back DVD R/RWs, DVD-R/RWs, (S)Video CDs(CD-RW/R), Audio CDs(CD-RW/R), MP3 CDs(CD-RW/R) of the respective standard.

7 Welcome to the growing family of owners of PHILIPS equipment. Thank you for buying a HDRW 720/17 . Time-shift TV viewing is possible with the hard disk drive (HDD) in your DVD-Recorder./Hard Disk By storing the recording in a time shift buffer, you can 'rewind' to a scene you missed while the current TV show is still being recorded. Recordings in the time shift buffer will be automatically deleted e.g. after 3 hours if the period of the time shift buffer is set to 3 hours (factory setting). Moreover, you can play back a DVD disc or a recorded title from the HDD while the current TV channel is being recorded in the background. You can store recordings from the time shift buffer on the built-in HDD and transfer (archive) them later on a DVD RW/ R disc. Furthermore your Philips DVD Recorder /Hard Disk is a device for recording on DVD RW/ R Discs and for playing digital video discs see next chapter. In the rest of the user manual the DVD Recorder/Hard Disk will be mentioned as DVD-Recorder. Please take the time to read this operating manual before using your DVD Recorder. It contains important information on how to set up and operate the device. We hope you will enjoy your new DVD Recorder / Hard Disk, your Philips team! If you have any problems operating the device, please read the section entitled 'Before you call an engineer'. If this doesn't help you to resolve the problem, please call the customer support service for your country. You can also visit the website 'http://www.p4c.philips.com' . Discs you can use The following discs can be used in your DVD recorder for playback and recording: Recording and playback DVD RW (Digital Versatile Disc rewriteable) uses phase change media, the same technology on which rewritable CDs are based. A high-performance laser is used to change the reflective properties of the recording layer; this process can be repeated more than a thousand times. DVD R (Digital Versatile Disc recordable) Unlike a DVD RW disc, this disc can only be written to once. If it is not finalized after a recording, further recordings can be added to it. Old recordings can be later deleted but they can no longer be overwritten. The deleted recordings (titles) are marked ' Deleted title'. Before this disc can be played in a DVD player, it must be finalized in the DVD recorder. Once this process is complete, no further recordings can be added. Playback only DVD Video (Digital Versatile Disc) is a storage medium that combines the convenience of the compact disc with the latest digital video technology. DVD video uses modern MPEG2 data compression technology that enables an entire feature film to be stored on a single five-inch disc. DVD-R(DVD-Recordable) These discs can only be played back if the recording was made in video mode and the recording was finalized. DVD-RW (DVD-Rewritable) These discs can only be played back if the recording was made in video mode and the recording was finalized.

13 Connecting to the TV Choose from the following connections: Connection with Component<Video< (Y Pb Pr) cable Connection with S<videocable Connection with Video (CVBS) cable Connection with the antenna cable only Connection with Component<Video< (Y Pb Pr) cable Component Video is the highest quality system for transmitting video by splitting the video signal into the Y (brightness), U and V (red minus brightness, blue minus brightness) components. The signals are sent over separate lines. The plugs for these cables and the corresponding jacks are usually red, green, and blue. In addition, the signal can be 'interlaced' or use 'progressive scan.' Interlaced The regular video/TV signal is interlaced, i.e. the even and odd lines are formed as half pictures in an alternate fashion. Progressive scan With progressive scan, each picture is structured (approx. 50/60 times per second depending on the TV system) as a complete picture, i.e. the even and odd lines are formed together. Disruptive picture flickering is avoided as is the case with 100 Hz TV devices. 1 Use the Component Video (Y Pb Pr) cable and connect one end to the red, blue, green COMPONENT VIDEO-OUT1 jacks at the back of the DVD Recorder and the other end to the Component Video In jacks of the TV. 2 If your TV set is equipped with a 'progressive scan' jack, please use this jack. (Usually called 'Video In Y Pb Pr'. Please see your TV's instruction manual). Please note the color order The colors of the jacks on the DVD Recorder must match those on the TV (red-red/blue-blue/green-green). If they are not matched properly, this could cause the color of the picture to be reversed or there could be no picture at all. 3 Use an audio cable and plug one end into the AUDIO L/R (OUT 1) jack at the back of the DVD Recorder (next to COMPONENT VIDEO-OUT1 ) and the other into the red/white Audio In jacks of the TV (usually called Audio in', 'AV in'. Please see your TV's instruction manual). O Read the next chapter 'Connecting additional devices' on how to connect additional devices (satellite receivers, videorecorders,...) to the input-/output jacks. Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the AC-outlet. Connecting with a S<Video (Y/C) cable This connecting cable, also known as the SVHS cable, is used to transmit the brightness signal (Y signal) and color signal (C signal) separately. This mini DIN jack/plug is also called a Hosiden jack/plug. 1 Use a S-Video (SVHS) cable and plug one end into the S-VIDEO (Y/C)-OUT2 jack at the back of the DVD Recorder and the other end into the S-Video (SVHS) In jack of the TV (usually called 'S-Video in' or 'SVHS in'. See your TV's instruction manual). 2 Use an audio (cinch) cable and plug one end into the red/white cinch jack AUDIO L/R (OUT 2) at the back of the DVD Recorder (next to S-VIDEO (Y/C)-OUT2 ) and the other into the corresponding red/white audio input jack of the TV (usually called Audio in', 'AV in'. See your TV's instruction manual). O Read the next chapter 'Connecting additional devices' on how to connect additional devices (satellite receivers, videorecorders,...) to the input-/output jacks. Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the AC-outlet'. Connecting the DVD recorder
14 Connecting with Video (CVBS) cable This cable, usually featuring yellow cinch plugs, is used for transmitting the Composite Video Baseband Signal (CVBS). In this method of transmission the color signal and the brightness signal are transmitted on the same cable. Under certain circumstances, this may lead to problems with the picture, such as 'MoirÃÂ©' patterns. 1 Use a video (CVBS) cable and plug one end into the yellow jack VIDEO (CVBS)-OUT2 at the back of the DVD Recorder and the other end into the Video In jack (usually yellow) of the TV (usually called Video in or AV in. See your TV's instruction manual). 2 Use an audio (cinch) cable and plug one end into the red/white cinch jack AUDIO L/R (OUT 2) at the back of the DVD Recorder (under to VIDEO (CVBS)-EXT2 ) and the other into the corresponding red/white audio input jack of the TV (usually called Audio in', 'AV in'. See your TV's instruction manual). O Read the next chapter 'Connecting additional devices' on how to connect additional devices (satellite receivers, videorecorders,...) to the input-/output jacks. Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the AC-outlet'. Connection with the antenna cable only If your TV has only a single antenna input jack and does not have any audio/video jacks you can use the connected antenna cable. Please observe that you must adjust the TV to the DVD-Recorder (channel 3 or 4). Connecting to the AC<outlet Always check if the local mains voltage matches the voltage range printed on the type plate at the back or bottom of the DVD-recorder. If not consult your dealer or the customer support from your country. 1 Switch on the TV set. 2 Connect the mains jack 4 MAINS at the back of the DVD Recorder with the power supply using the supplied power cable. P The most important features of the DVD recorder will appear in scrolling text on the display. After the first installation is completed this function will be switched off. Then, read the paragraph on 'Initial installation' in 'Installing your DVD recorder'. ENGLISH Connecting the DVD recorder
15 Connecting a video recorder, DVD player. You can also connect a video recorder or a DVD player to the input jacks. O Connect the DVD-Recorder directly with your TV-set (Cable from the output jacks directly to the TV set). If there is a video recorder or another device in between, there can be distortions in the TV pictures from the 'copy protection system'. O If you have an SVHS video recorder you should use the S-VIDEO (Y/C)-EXT2 jack and the AUDIO L/R (IN-EXT 2) jacks. O You can also use the front jacks. For more information read the chapter 'Recording on the HDD'. Connecting a cable box with cinch or S<video cable You can connect a cable box to the S-VIDEO (Y/C)-EXT2 or VIDEO (CVBS)-EXT2 input jacks and the AUDIO L/R (IN-EXT 2) audio jacks. Switching between jacks S-VIDEO (Y/C)-EXT2 and VIDEO (CVBS)-EXT2 is done automatically. If a signal is available at both jacks at the same time, the signal at the S-VIDEO (Y/C)-EXT2 jack has priority. The antenna cable should also be connected to the cable box and the DVD recorder as shown. Connect the DVD-Recorder directly with your TV-set (Cable from the output jacks S-VIDEO (Y/C)-OUT2 or VIDEO (CVBS)-OUT2 directly to the TV set). If there is a video recorder or another device in between, there can be distortions in the TV pictures from the 'copy protection system'. Connecting a cable box only via antenna cable If you want to connect a cable box only via antenna cable, please observe the following: he DVD-Recorder have to be directly connected to the TV set. If there are other devices (video recorder, decoder, satellite receiver,...) in between, there can be distortions in the TV pictures from the 'copy protection system'. The cable box have to be connected before the DVD-Recorder (cable box - DVD-Recorder - TV set). On the jack TV OUT only the TV have to be connected. Ã¢ÂÂ¢) If there is interference in the picture when the cable TV box is switched on, a TV broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the cable TV box. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 3, cable TV box also on channel 3). In this case, change the channel of the cable TV box. You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to record TV programs from the cable TV box. The antenna cable should also be connected to the cable box and the DVD-Recorder as shown. Switch on the additional device during the installation of the DVD recorder. During the automatic channel search, the channel on which the additional device is transmitting will be stored as a TV channel. Connecting additional devices

Please make sure that the chapter selection is activated (the ' CHAPTER' symbol lights up in the info bar at the top of the screen). If necessary, you can activate it using T/C . The Time shift Buffer As a result of the high data transfer speed of the HDD, it is possible to play back recordings from the time shift buffer while the recording is still in process. Therefore, you can jump back to the currently selected TV programusing JUMP BACK and watch a scene again. Moreover, you can use all playback features such as still picture, slow motion, search by time, search with N , O even with recordings that are still in the time shift buffer. In the meantime, the recording continues. If you change the TV channel on the DVD-Recorder ( CHANNEL q , CHANNEL r ) a new title is created with the new TV channel in the time shift buffer. If you watch a TV show only for a short time (less than 60 seconds) before you change to a different TV channel, no new title is created. For easier navigation, you can change the time period of the time shift buffer from 1 to 6 hours. 1 hour means that a recording is available only for one hour before it is automatically deleted to make room for the current recording. If the TV Guide On Screen Ã¢ÂÂ¢ system delivers title information, the latter is also stored with the recording. When recording TV shows without TV Guide On Screen Ã¢ÂÂ¢ information, only the date and the time of the recording are stored as title. What is the advantage from 1 hour and 6 hours? The complete time periode of the time will be displayed on the whole screen of your TV. With 1 hour you will get the highest comfort for searching a specific scene. With 6 hours you will get the highest possible recording time. Please observe that the Time shift Buffer needs also storage capacity on the HDD. Depending of the selected record mode (picture quality): 6 hours in ' M1' = approx. 28GB 6 hours in ' M8' = approx. 3,4GB How you enter the time periode, read in the chapter 'User preferences for the HDD' in the section ' Preferences '/ ' Recording '/ 'HDD buffer '.

78 Chapters Also known as 'scenes', a DVD movie can be broken up into sections much like the chapters of a book, that can be accessed quickly and easily via the DVD menu or remote control. NICAM NICAM is a digital sound transmission system. Using NICAM, you can transmit either 1 stereo channel or 2 separate mono channels. However, if reception is poor and the sound distorted you can turn off NICAM. NTSC National Television Systems Committee. The color TV broadcast system used in the US, Canada and Japan. An NTSC picture is made up of 525 horizontal lines and has inferior picture quality in comparison to the PAL system. All Australian-sold DVD players are NTSC compatible, however DVD's that are played on a television that is not compatible will appear in black and white. Region code Since DVD films are not normally released in all parts of the world at the same time, all DVD players have a specific regional code. Discs can be given a regional code. If the regional codes differ between the player and the disc, playback is not possible. The regional code of the DVD recorder is shown on the type plate at the back or bottom. Pan & Scan One method of converting a widescreen movie to fit in a standard 4:3 television is known as letterboxing (described above) and the other commonly found process is Pan and Scan (also known as Panning and Scanning). To retain a fullscreen 4x3 image, the most important part of each scene is chosen and the left and right edges of the scene are cropped. Obviously, this process results in a loss of some data and does not fully represent the film as it was intended to be portrayed by the director. As such, DVD enthusiasts are not overly fond of DVD's authored via this method. Macrovision Macrovision is a copy-protection technique intended to keep you from making copies of DVDs with your VCR. It works by continuously adjusting the video signal level that results in a recording where the brightness of the picture continuously fluctuates between light and dark, and the color levels fluctuate between oversaturated and washed out. Macrovision "encoded" DVDs contain a bit of data that tells the DVD player to activate its internal macrovision circuitry in order to prevent copying. Regional Coding A security system introduced to DVD at the request of Hollywood's major studios to ensure that DVD's released and sold in one region will not play on DVD machines in other regions. Movie distributors therefore maintain control over release dates of their films, as well as enabling discs to be produced that conform to different censorship laws, language and subtitle requirements. When a DVD disc is manufactured, a region code is applied at the authoring stage such that the final disc will play only on those players distributed in the designated world region. ENGLISH
