05 Recording Note • If you set a DVD timer recording but there is no recordable DVD disc loaded, or the disc loaded doesn't have enough free space for the complete recording, Recovery is shown. In this case (unless you load a suitable disc before the recording actually starts), the recorder will use the HDD for recording. (The message Can't Rec will appear if there are already 999 titles on the HDD or if there is not enough free space on the HDD for recording.) • For a DVD timer recording, if Optimized Rec (see Optimized Rec on page 117) is set to On, the recorder will adjust the recording quality to try and fit the recording on the disc. If the recording will not fit onto the disc even on MN1 (MN4 for DVD+R/+RW) recording quality then the Recovery Recording feature will automatically make the recording to the HDD instead. • If there is very little free space left on the HDD, an Auto Replace Recording may not complete successfully. • If the HDD is being used for playback or high-speed copying when an Auto Replace Recording is due to start, the new timer recording will not replace the old one. However, the next time the timer recording starts, both of the older two programmes will be erased. Editing a timer programme You can change any of the settings in a timer programme before the recording is due to start. 1 Press HOME MENU, select Timer Recording, then Timer Recording. 2 Highlight the timer programme you want to change. 3 Press  then select 'Modify' from the command menu panel. Alternatively, press ENTER. 44 En The Timer Programme Set screen appears from which you can edit the settings. 4 Edit the timer recording settings as necessary. 5 Select 'Store Programme' to finish. Confirm the settings you made from the following screen. Deleting a timer programme You can delete timer programmes you no longer need. 1 Press HOME MENU, select Timer Recording, then Timer Recording. 2 Highlight the timer programme you want to erase. 3 Press  then select 'Erase' from the command menu panel. • Select Yes to confirm or No to cancel. • You can also just press CLEAR when the timer programme is highlighted. Skipping a regular timer programme If you've set a regular daily or weekly timer programme, you can set the recorder to skip the next scheduled recording. 1 Press HOME MENU, select Timer Recording, then Timer Recording. 2 Highlight the timer programme you want to skip. 3 Press  then select 'Cancel Once' from the command menu panel. • In the timer programme list, Cancel Once appears by the programme. • You can also just press  PAUSE when the timer programme is highlighted. Extending a timer recording in progress You can extend a timer recording beyond the programmed end time in two different ways. This can be useful if a broadcast programme overruns, for example.
