Before you start 01 6 En Chapter 1 Before you start Features • Chase play (DVD-RW only) 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 (DVD-RW only) This feature allows you to record a broadcast program while watching something else already recorded on the same disc. • 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 easy. For recordable DVD content, moving thumbnail images are displayed for ease of use. The Disc Navigator is also where you can edit 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 DTS- compatible 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, using the G-Code™ system* for easy programming if you want. As well as single programs, you can specify daily or weekly recordings, too. * G-Code is registered in at least the following countries: Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore. The G-Code 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 INPUT 1/AUTO START REC inputs of this recorder, you can start and stop recording automatically according to the timer settings of the set top box. • 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 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 33 different recording quality/time settings, giving you precise control over the recording.

Before you start 01 7 En • 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 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/RW or CD-ROM discs. JPEG picture files can also be played from DVD-R/RW discs. VR mode Video mode DVR-330_RL.book 7 ページ ２００５年３月１日　火曜日　午後１０時４７分

Check the DVD-R/RW or CD-R/RW software disc boxes for additional compatibility information. 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 32. • 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. DVR-330_RL.book 10 ページ ２００５年３月１日　火曜日　午後１０時４７分
Before you start 01 11 En * ‘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. This recorder supports the recording of ‘copy-once’ broadcast programs using the CPRM copy protection system (see CPRM on page 33) 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. 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.

Recording 05 32 En Chapter 5 Recording About DVD recording This recorder can record on both DVD-R and DVD-RW media. The main difference between the two is that DVD-R discs can only be recorded once, while DVD-RW can be recorded, erased and re-recorded many times. Both types of disc can be initialized for Video mode or VR mode recording. Each has its advantages, and it depends on what you want to do with the recording which mode you choose. If you want to edit your recordings in any significant way, VR mode is the one to go for as it offers greater possibilities for cutting, copying, and changing the way the video is presented. Video mode is less flexible when it comes to editing, but it has the advantage that it is compatible with standard DVD players (many of which won’t play VR mode discs 1 ). Once a disc is initialized for a particular mode, all recording on that disc will be in that mode. Important • The maximum number of titles and chapters that can be recorded on a VR mode disc is 99 and 999 respectively; on a Video mode disc the maximum number of titles and chapters is 99 and 99. No more recording is possible on a disc that already contains the maximum number of chapters/titles. • Unfinalized Video mode discs are not usable in other DVD recorders. Likewise, unfinalized video mode discs recorded using other recorders are not usable in this recorder. • Pioneer takes no responsibility for recording failure due to power cuts, defective discs, or damage to the recorder. • Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can affect playback and/or recording performance. Please take proper care of your discs. • See also Disc / content format playback compatibility on page 9 for detailed disc compatibility information. • Although this recorder can record PAL, SECAM, NTSC and PAL-60, you can’t mix multiple TV line systems on one disc. A disc can contain PAL and SECAM recordings, or NTSC and PAL-60. See also Additional information about the TV system settings on page 74. Recording time and picture quality There are six preset recording quality modes 2 : • XP – Highest quality setting, gives about one hour of recording time. • SP (Standard Play) – Default quality, sufficient for most applications, gives about two hours of recording time. • LP (Long Play) – Slightly lower video quality, but doubles the recording time to around four hours. • EP (Extended Play) – EP gives you around six hours of recording time. • SLP (Super Long Play) – SLP gives you around eight hours of recording time. • SEP (Super Extended Play) – SEP gives you around ten hours of recording time. Please note that there is a trade-off between recording time and quality. The longer the possible recording time, the lower the recorded picture quality. In addition to these settings, when Manual Recording is On (see Manual Recording on page 72) you can access 32 different recording quality/time settings ( MN1 – MN32 ), and a high-quality audio mode ( LPCM ). When setting a timer recording there is a further option, AUTO , which maximizes the recording quality for the space available on the disc loaded at the time of recording. Note 1. Some DVD players, such as some Pioneer models, are compatible with VR mode discs. Check the operating instructions for your player for VR mode compatibility information. 2. All recording times (both in this manual and those shown by the recorder) are approximate. This is because of the way that the video is re- corded; you may get slightly more or slightly less, depending on what you’re recording. DVR-330_RL.book 32 ページ ２００５年３月１日　火曜日　午後１０時４７分
Recording 05 33 En Recorded audio In all except the LPCM mode, sound is recorded in two channel Dolby Digital format. When set to LPCM , sound is recorded in high quality, uncompressed Linear PCM format. If the broadcast audio is bilingual and you are recording in Video mode or on the LPCM setting, use the Bilingual Recording setting (page 70) to select the A/L or B/R audio channel to record before recording starts. In other cases, both channels of a bilingual broadcast will be recorded and you can switch on playback. Restrictions on video recording You cannot record copy-protected video using this recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause automatically and an error message will be displayed on- screen. Video that is ‘copy-once only’ can only be recorded ona disc in VR mode (see below). When recording a TV broadcast or through an external input, you can display copy control information on screen. (see Displaying disc information on-screen on page 30). CPRM CPRM is a copy protection/scrambling system developed for the recording of ‘copy once’ broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media . This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible DVD-R (ver. 2.0/8x or higher) or DVD-RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode. DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM. Recording equipment and copyright 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. • This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited. Setting the picture quality/recording time Before starting a recording, you will usually want to set the picture quality/recording time. There are six standard settings available, which allow you to choose a balance between picture quality and recording time. When Manual Recording is set to On (see Manual Recording on page 72), a further option will be available ( MN1 – 32 or LPCM , depending on what you set). See also Recording time and picture quality on page 32 for more information. • Press REC MODE repeatedly to select a recording setting. • XP – High quality • SP – Standard play • LP – Long play • EP – Extended play • SLP – Super Long play • SEP – Super Extended play • MN / LPCM 1 – Manual / Linear PCM (available only when manual recording is on) The setting is indicated in the front panel display, and shown on-screen together with the recording time for a blank recordable disc. If a recordable disc is loaded, the approximate remaining recording time for that disc is also shown. (Note that if the On Screen Display setting (see On-Screen Display on page 73) is Off then this information is not displayed.) Note 1. Audio is recorded in 16-bit Linear PCM format, video is recorded at XP quality. When recording a bilingual broadcast, select which audio chan- nel to record (see Bilingual Recording on page 70).

Recording 05 40 En Canceling and stopping a timer recording in progress After a timer recording has started, you can cancel the program (but continue recording), or stop recording completely if you need to. 1 During timer recording, press and hold  REC for three seconds. Only the program is canceled (the timer indicator disappears); recording continues so that you can manually stop recording whenever you like. 2 When you want to stop recording completely, press  STOP REC. Tip • You can also stop a timer recording immediately by pressing  STOP REC then selecting Yes to confirm. Preventing use of the recorder before a timer recording (child lock) You can make all the front panel and remote control buttons inoperative using the child lock feature. This is useful when you set a timer recording and want to make sure that the timer settings are not changed before recording has finished. 1 If the recorder is on, switch it into standby. 2 Press and hold  STOP on the front panel for three seconds to lock the controls. The front panel display briefly shows LOCK . If any buttons are pressed on the remote or front panel, LOCK is briefly displayed again. • To unlock the recorder, press and hold  STOP on the front panel for three seconds until the display shows UNLOCK . • To cancel a timer recording when the recorder is locked, first unlock the recorder (see above), then press and hold  REC for three seconds. Timer recording FAQ Frequently Asked Questions • Even though the timer is set, the recorder doesn’t start recording! Check that the disc loaded is recordable, not locked (see Lock Disc on page 63), and that there are fewer than 99 titles already on the DVD. • The recorder won’t let me enter a timer program! Why not? You can’t enter a timer program if the clock isn’t set. • What happens when two or more timer programs overlap? Basically, the program with the earlier recording start time has priority. However, the recorder will start recording the program with the later start time after the earlier program is finished. If two programs have the same times, only one of them will be recorded, so it is best to set one of them to Cancel Once . See Skipping a regular timer program on page 39. •I entered a timer program, but the recorder doesn’t confirm whether or not it’s OK. Why not? Timer confirmation only works for DVD recordings when there is a recordable disc loaded. Also make sure that the disc is not locked (see The Disc Setup menu on page 63) and that there are fewer than 99 titles already recorded. Note that it’s possible that although the timer recording screen says OK, the recording doesn’t complete successfully because of some other reason, such as a damaged disc, etc. Simultaneous recording and playback A feature called Chase Play makes it possible to watch a recording in progress from the start of the recording (as in, playback is ‘chasing’ the recording). For example, perhaps you have to miss the first 30 minutes of a movie on TV; you can start recording, then start watching the movie, from the beginning, while the recorder is still recording 30 minutes ahead of you. In fact, you’re not just limited to watching the recording in progress; you can watch anything else already on the DVD by selecting it from the Disc Navigator screen (see Using the Disc Navigator with recordable discs on page 47).

Also make sure that what you’re trying to record is not copy-protected. If it still doesn’t work, try switching off the camcorder then switch back on. • There’s a picture, but no sound! Try switching the DV Input setting (see DV Input on page 70) between Stereo 1 and Stereo 2 . 1 Playing your recordings on other DVD players Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs recorded in Video mode. A number of players (including many Pioneer models) can also play DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode, finalized or not. Most players will not play VR mode DVD-R discs, although some DVD- ROM drives and DVD recorders may be able to (finalization might be necessary). Check the manual that came with the player to check what kinds of discs it will play. When you finalize a Video mode disc, a title menu is created from which you can select titles when you play the disc. There are a number of different styles of title menu to choose from to suit the content of the disc. All the title menus are navigated in the usual way, pressing MENU or TOP MENU to display the menu, then using the /// followed by ENTER to select titles and start playback. Finalizing a disc Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc can be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive. Note that the disc name will appear in the title menu after you finalize a disc. Make sure the disc name is as you want it before you finalize the disc as it can’t be changed afterwards. If you want to rename the disc, see Input Disc Name on page 63 before starting the steps below. Important • Once you’ve finalized a disc recorded in Video mode, you can’t edit or record anything else on that disc. However, the finalization on a DVD-RW disc maybe ‘undone’; see Undo Finalize on page 64 for how to do this. •A VR mode disc can still be recorded and edited on this recorder even after finalizing. 1 Load the disc you want to finalize. Make sure that the recorder is stopped before proceeding. 2 Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’. 3 Select ‘Finalize’. 4 Select ‘Finalize’ from the finalize options, then ‘Next Screen’. 5 For Video mode discs only, select a title menu style, then select ‘Yes’ to start finalization or ‘No’ to cancel. The menu you select will be the one that appears when the ‘top menu’ is selected on any DVD player. • Discs recorded partially or fully on the Pioneer DVR-7000 DVD recorder do not support this feature. These discs will have only a text title menu when finalized on this recorder. 6 The recorder will now start finalizing the disc. During finalization: • If the finalization process of a DVD-RW disc is going to take more than around four minutes, you can press ENTER to cancel. Around four minutes before completion, the option to cancel disappears. Note 1. If the audio subcode on the DV tape cannot be read correctly, the audio type will not switch automatically. You can switch the audio manually from the External Audio setting (page 70).

Recording 05 45 En • You can’t cancel the finalization of a VR mode DVD-R disc. • How long finalization takes depends on the type of disc, how much is recorded on the disc and the number of titles on the disc. A disc recorded in VR mode can take up to one hour to finalize. A disc recorded in Video mode can take up to 20 minutes. Note • If the TV line system of the disc is different to the current setting of the recorder, you will not be able to finalize the disc. See Additional information about the TV system settings on page 74 for how to change the recorder’s setting. Initializing a recordable DVD disc When you first load a blank disc, the recorder will initialize it automatically for recording. You can also manually initialize discs for either Video mode recording or VR mode recording. 1 By default, the recorder initializes blank DVD-RW discs for VR mode recording. See DVD-RW Auto Init. on page 72 if you want to change the default to Video mode. DVD-R discs are ready for Video mode recordings out of the box; if you want to use a DVD-R for VR mode recording, you must do it before recording anything else on the disc. Important • Initializing a DVD-RW disc will erase everything recorded on it. Make sure there is nothing on the disc that you want to keep! • You may not be able to re-initialize a DVD-RW disc in a different format if it was originally initialized on an older DVD recorder. • Once initialized for VR mode recording, you can’t re- initialize a DVD-R back to Video mode. 1 Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’. 2 Select ‘Initialize’ 3 Select ‘Video Mode’ or ‘VR Mode’ from the initialize options. 4 Select ‘Start’. It takes about 30 seconds to initialize the disc. Note 1. If a disc was previously finalized on an older DVD recorder, you may not be able to re-initialize and/or initialize it for Video mode recording.

When you erase titles from a DVD-R, the titles are no longer displayed, but the content remains on the disc. DVD-R is a write-once medium; it can’t be erased or rewritten. •I can’t edit my disc! You may find that as the available recording time is reduced on a VR mode DVD-R disc, editing is no longer possible. This is because information about your edits requires a certain amount of disc space. As you edit, this information builds up, eventually preventing you from editing further.

Additional information 12 79 En If the unit does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity, disconnect the power plug from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions. Frequently asked questions In this section you can find answers to frequently asked questions on how to use your DVD recorder and what it can do.. • What kind of discs can I use for recording? You can use DVD-R and DVD-RW discs for recording. DVD-RAM, CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recordable using this recorder. See Disc / content format playback compatibility on page 9 for more details. • Can I watch recordings made using this recorder on other DVD players? Yes. Use a DVD-R disc for you recordings (these are always recorded in Video mode). After recording, finalize the disc to make it playable on other DVD players (note that you cannot make further recordings on the disc after finalizing it). If you want to use a DVD-RW disc, make sure that it’s initialized for recording in Video mode. As with a DVD-R, finalize the disc after recording to make it playable in other players. See also Playing your recordings on other DVD players on page 44. • Can I edit recordings, or erase parts of recordings from a disc? Yes. Recording to a VR mode DVD-RW disc gives you the most flexibility when editing. By default, when you load a new DVD-RW disc into the recorder it is initialized for recording in VR mode. See also Editing on page 54. • Can I play a VR mode DVD-RW disc in another DVD player? Look for the ‘RW Compatible’ mark on the other DVD player to see if it will play VR mode DVD-RW discs. If the player does not recognize the disc when you load it, try finalizing it in the recorder, then try again. See also Playing your recordings on other DVD players on page 44. • Can I record a copy-once protected program from a subscription satellite or cable channel? Yes, but you’ll need to use a CPRM-compatible DVD- RW disc initialized for VR mode recording. (Look on the disc package to see if it is CPRM compatible.) See also CPRM on page 33 . • Can I play a disc while recording? Yes. For simultaneous recording and playback, use a 2x speed compatible DVD-RW initialized for VR mode recording (the disc should be a DVD-RW Ver. 1.1 (CPRM-compatible), or Ver. 1.2. See also Simultaneous recording and playback on page 40. •I changed the batteries in the remote control and now it doesn’t work! Most likely the remote control ID does not match the recorder. After changing the batteries, the remote ID is reset to 1; if the recorder is set to something else, the remote will not work with it. See Remote Control Mode on page 73 for how to set the ID of the recorder and the remote.

Additional information 12 84 En Handling discs When holding discs of any type, take care not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the center hole and edge. Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback and recording performance. Take care also not to scratch the label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as the recorded side, scratches can still result in a disc becoming unusable. Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge. Don’t clean discs with a circular motion. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning vinyl records. Storing discs Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable than vinyl records, you should still take care to handle and store discs correctly. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all damage the disc. For more detailed care information see the instructions that come with discs. Do not load more than one disc into the recorder. Damaged discs Discs spin at high speed inside the recorder. If you can see that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged, don't risk using it; you could end up damaging the recorder. This recorder is designed for use with conventional, fully circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not recommended for this product. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs. Cleaning the pickup lens The DVD recorder’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer- authorized service center. Although lens cleaners for CD players are commercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens. Condensation Condensation may form inside the recorder if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the recorder, it may temporarily impair its performance. For this reason you should leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on and using. • This channel’ s TV system is differ ent from the recor der’ s setting.

Additional information 12 85 En Hints on installation We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to come, so please bear in mind the following points when choosing a suitable location for it: Do...  Use in a well-ventilated room.  Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table, shelf or stereo rack. Don’t...  Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or humidity, including near radiators and other heat- generating appliances.  Place on a window sill or other place where the recorder will be exposed to direct sunlight.  Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room where it will be exposed to excessive cigarette smoke.  Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other component in your stereo system that becomes hot in use.  Use near a television or monitor as you may experience interference—especially if the television uses an indoor antenna.  Use in a kitchen or other room where the recorder may be exposed to smoke or steam.  Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth—this may prevent proper cooling of the unit.  Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large enough to support all four of the unit’s feet. Moving the recorder If you need to move the recorder, first remove the disc, if there’s one loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press  STANDBY/ON to switch the power to standby, checking that the POWER OFF indication in the display goes off. Wait at least two minutes. Lastly, disconnect the power cord. Never lift or move the unit during playback or recording—discs rotate at a high speed and may be damaged. Glossary Analog audio An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also Digital audio . Aspect ratio The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is high). Chapter Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters. See also Title . Digital audio An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-to- digital converter, generating a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on these numbers. See also Sampling frequency and Analog audio . Dolby Digital Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM recording, also saves recordable disc space, allowing for higher video resolution or extended recording time on each DVD.

Digital cameras from various manufacturers use this compressed file format which carries date, time and thumbnail information, as well as the picture data. File extension A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an MP3 file. ISO 9660 format International standard for the volume and file structure of CD-ROM discs. JPEG A file format used for still images, such as photographs and illustrations. JPEG files are identified by the file extension “.jpg” or “.JPG”. Most digital cameras use this format. MP3 MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed audio file format. Files are recognized by their file extension “.mp3” or “.MP3”. MPEG audio An audio format used on Video CDs and some DVD discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to PCM format for wider compatibility with digital recorders and AV amp/receivers. See also PCM . MPEG video The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs. Video CD uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while DVD uses the newer and much better quality MPEG-2 standard. Optical digital output A jack that outputs digital audio in the form of light pulses. Connect components with optical digital jacks using a special optical cord, available from specialist audio dealers. PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amp/receivers with digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and MPEG audio to PCM. See also Digital audio . PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD/Super VCD only) A system of navigating a Video CD/Super VCD through on-screen menus recorded onto the disc. Especially good for discs that you would normally not watch from beginning to end all at once—karaoke discs, for example. Progressive scan video Also called non-interlaced video, this method of displaying a picture updates all the lines in one pass, resulting in a more stable, flicker-free image than interlaced video (for a given scanning rate). PureCinema Video on a DVD disc may be either video material (originally shot on video) or film material (originally shot on film). Video material has a frame rate of 30 frames/ second, compared to 24 frames/second for film. This recorder converts film material to 60 frames/second (in progressive scan mode). PureCinema adjusts the picture so that it matches more closely the picture quality of a cinema screen. You can see whether video on a DVD disc is film or video material by displaying the transfer rate. If a ‘#’ appears above the transfer rate display, it is film material.

Additional information 12 87 En Regions (DVD-Video only) (example region code marks) Regions associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or all regions). Sampling frequency The rate at which sound is measured to be turned into digital audio data. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality, but the more digital information is generated. Standard CD audio has a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz, which means 44,100 samples (measurements) per second. See also Digital audio . Title A collection of chapters on a DVD disc. See also Chapter . Track Audio CDs and Video CDs use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also Chapter . WMA WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and refers to an audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 9 or 10, or Windows Media Player for Windows XP. Files are recognized by their file extension “.wma” or “.WMA”. Microsoft, Windows Media, and the Windows logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries. 2 ALL DVR-330_RL.book 87 ページ ２００５年３月１日　火曜日　午後１０時４７分
