Pioneer PRV-9200 Operating Instructions - Page 9

Before you start 01 • One Touch Recording Use One Touch Recording to start recording immediately in 30 minute blocks. Each time you press the ì REC button, the recording time is extended by another 30 minutes. • 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 When recording using one of the high quality record settings (FINE or MN32), the 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 the four preset recording quality modes (FINE, SP, LP and EP), the manual recording mode allows you to access 32 different recording quality/time settings, giving you precise control over the recording. • Record to and from a DV camcorder This recorder has a built-in DV (Digital Video) input/ output jack for connection to a DV camcorder. This makes it ideal for transferring camcorder footage to DVD or HDD for editing. You can also transfer DVD or HDD content back to the camcorder if you need to. • Safe, non-destructive editing VR mode When you edit a DVD-RW, 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. • Chapter marking VR mode HDD You can easily add chapter markers anywhere in your recordings for easy editing. • Play Video mode recordings on a regular DVD player Video mode 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 DVDVideo 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 / DVDRW 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 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.
