takes some time from when you
press REC/OTR until recording
actually starts.
Press REC/OTR a little before your
preferred starting point.
• Even if STOP is pressed during
recording, recording does not stop
instantly.
• Because of characteristics pecu-
liar to digital video compression
technology, scenes with fast mo-
tion may appear as a matrix of
larger blocks.

protect copyrights. There are 3 types of copy-restriction signals: '*Copy
Free", *'Copy NeveP and "Copy Once".
"Copy Free" (unrestricted recording)
Land-based TV broadcasts and images you record yourself with a video
camera allow unrestricted recording. There are no restrictions on re-
cording.
"Copy Never" (recording prohibited)
• Images that contain the recording prohibited signal cannot be re-
corded.
• If the recording prohibited signal appears halfway through an image
you are recording, recording is paused at that instant. When the re-
cording prohibited signal ends, recording resumes.
• This unit incorporates a built-in copy guard. It cannot record soft
ware or broadcasted programs that contain copy restriction signals
designed to protect copyright, etc.
"Copy Once" (one-time recordable)
Programs(images) that contain the one-time recordable signal can be
