What is ‘CPRM’?
CPRM is a copy protection system (with scramble
system) only allowing the recording of ‘copy once’
broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content
Protection for Recordable Media. This player 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 DVD-RW discs formatted in VR
mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played on
