Only JPEG ﬁ les with the ".jpg", ".JPG" extension can be used.

The unit can handle a maximum of 1000 ﬁ les and folders.

Maximum size of progressive JPEG is 3M pixels.

MOTION JPEG is not supported.

DVD-RAM/±RW/±R discs that contain JPEG ﬁ les can be played back.

Using CD-R/-RW

Use a 700MB(80 minutes) CD-R/-RW disc. If possible, do not use a 800MB(90 minutes) or above disc, as

the disc may not play back.

If the CD-R/-RW disc was not recorded as a closed session, you may experience a delay in the early

play-back time, and all recorded ﬁ les may not play.

Some CD-R/-RW discs may not be playable with this unit, depending on the device which was used to

burn them. For contents recorded on CD-R/-RW media from CDs for your personal use, playability may

vary depending on contents and discs.

When recording from CDs for your personal use to CD-R/-RW discs, playability may vary depending on the

contents and discs.

DVD-R/-RW Disc Playback and Recording

Recording and playback can be performed on DVD-R/-RW discs in both Video and VR Modes.

Once a DVD-R/-RW is recorded in VR or Video mode and ﬁ nalized, you cannot perform additional

recordings.

Once a DVD-R/-RW is recorded in Video Mode and ﬁ nalized, it becomes a DVD-Video.

In both modes, playback can be performed before and after ﬁ nalization, but additional recording, deleting

and editing can not be performed after ﬁ nalization.

If you want to record the disc in VR Mode and then record in V Mode, be sure to execute format. Be careful

when executing Format because all the recorded data may be lost. You can change the disc mode only

one times when the unused DVD-R disc is inserted.

• DVD-R/-RW (VR mode)

- You can record multiple titles, edit, delete, partial delete, create a playlist, etc.

- A disc that is recorded in this mode may not be played by existing DVD players.

• DVD-R/-RW (Video mode)

- The disc can be played by an existing DVD player once it has been ﬁ nalized.

- If a disc that has been recorded in Video mode by a different manufacturer's recorder but has not been

ﬁ nalized it cannot be played or recorded by this recorder.

- When programing is erased from a DVD-R, that space does not become available. Once an area on a DVD-R

is recorded on, that area is no longer available for recording, whether the recording is erased or not.

DVD+R Disc Playback and Recording

Once a DVD+R is recorded and ﬁ nalized, it is playable in a standard DVD player.

You can record onto the available space on the disc and perform editing functions such as giving titles to

discs and programs and erasing programs before ﬁ nalizing.

When programing is erased from a DVD+R, that space does not become available. Once an area on a

DVD+R is recorded on, that area is no longer available for recording, whether the recording is erased or not.

It takes about 30 seconds for the unit to update the recorded information after recording ﬁ nishes.

This product optimizes the DVD+R for each recording. Optimizing is executed when you start recording

after inserting the disc or turning on the unit. Recording onto the disc may become impossible if optimizing

is performed too many times.

Playback may be impossible in some cases due to the condition of recording.

This unit can play back DVD+R discs recorded and ﬁ nalized with a Samsung DVD video recorder. It may

not be able to play some DVD+R discs depending on the disc and the condition of the recording.

HOW TO USE THE DVD RECORDER & VCR

Step 1 : Select the disc type

This unit can record on the following types of discs.

If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a

rewritable DVD±RW or DVD-RAM type disc. If you want to save a recording without making any changes,

choose a non-rewritable DVD±R.

Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording

Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted.

Using a DVD-RAM/±RW/+R

When an unused DVD-RAM/±RW/+R disc is ﬁ rst inserted, the message "Unformatted Disc. Formatting.

Please wait." will be displayed.

Using a DVD-R

It is not necessary to format a new DVD-R disc. When it is inserted, it will operate in Video mode.

It can also be formatted in VR mode in the setup menu.

You can change the disc mode only once when an unused disc is inserted.

You can only use either the VR or Video mode on a DVD-RW/-R, but not both at the same time.

You can format a DVD-RW/-R to V or VR mode using disc setting.

It should be noted that the disc's data will be lost when changing formats.

Step 3 : Recording

There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording(recording a program you are currently watching)

and Timer Recording.

Timer recording is classiﬁ ed as follows : Recording mode : HQ (high quality mode), HSP, SP (standard quality

mode), LSP, ESP, LP, EP, SLP (Long duration mode) according to the recording mode.

When recording is set in the AUTO mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining

time on the disc.

Step 4 : Playing

To start playback, select the title you want to play from the title list.

A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub sections called chapters.

During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be

created automatically regardless of the disc type when it is set at the setup menu.

Step 5 : Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The recorder supports many different edit functions,

possible only with DVDs.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, dubbing, rename,

lock, etc., on a recorded title.

● GETTING STARTED

Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW/-R in VR mode)

With this recorder, you can create/edit a new playlist on the same disc without changing the original

recording.

Step 6 : Finalizing & Playing on other DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD players, ﬁ nalizing may be necessary. First, ﬁ nish all editing and recording

operations, then ﬁ nalize the disc.

When using a DVD-RW/-R disc in VR Mode

Although ﬁ nalizing is generally unnecessary when playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a

ﬁ nalized disc should be used for playback.

When using a DVD-RW/-R disc in Video Mode

The disc should be ﬁ nalized ﬁ rst to enable playback on anything other than this recorder. No more editing or

recording can be made on the disc once it has been ﬁ nalized.

When using a DVD+R disc

You should ﬁ nalize the disc to play it on other DVD players. No more editing or recording can be made on the

disc once it has been ﬁ nalized.

You can ﬁ nalize automatically using the EZ REC MODE. (See page 40)

Connecting the Power Cord

After all connections are complete, plug the power cord into a wall outlet.

"Auto" appears in the panel display. This means that the current time is being set automatically (Auto

Program) through the antenna under connection and also the channel is being set. The setup may take a few

minutes.

When the DVD Recorder operates normally, the current time is automatically set and displayed in the front

panel display.

After the current time is set automatically, the recorder will perform Auto Preset for about 3 minutes. If power is on

before ﬁ nishing the Auto Preset process, Auto Preset will stop. In this case, do Auto Preset from MENU. (See page

31)

● CONNECTING & SETTING UP

Connecting & Setting up

CONNECTING THE ANTENNA CABLE

There are several ways to connect your DVD Recorder & VCR. Select the antenna connection that best suits you

below.

Antenna + DVD Recorder & VCR + TV: No Cable box

You can record non-scrambled channels by selecting the channel on the DVD Recorder & VCR. Also use

this method if you watch channels without a cable box.

If you are using an off-air antenna that has 300-ohm twin ﬂ at leads, use an external antenna connector (300-75 ohm

adaptor : not supplied) to connect the antenna to the DVD Recorder & VCR.

If you have two separate antennas (one VHF and the other UHF), use a UHF/VHF combineradaptor (available at most

electronics shops) to connect the antenna to the DVD Recorder & VCR.
