As a result, you can 'rewind' to a scene ( D ) or watch a still picture ( PAUSE 9 ), while the current TV show is still being recorded. Recordings in the time shift buffer are only temporarily available (factory settings: 3 hours). For storing recordings on the HDD You can mark recordings in the time shift buffer for storage on the HDD using REC/OTR n . These recordings will be transferred to the HDD when you switch off the device using STANDBY m or when the time periode of the time shift buffer ( e.g. 3 hours) expires. DVD Recorder For archiving (copying) HDD recordings on a DVD+RW/+R Recordings on the HDD can be selected in a title overview screen (Media Browser) and then copied (archived) on a DVD+RW/+R. TV tuner For recordings independently from your TV set You can use your DVD/HDD recorder as a TV tuner, allowing you the comfort of pausing a running TV show and continue watching it later. You can make recordings on the HDD without having to turn on the TV set. DVD/CD/MP3 player For playing back recorded DVDs, CDs , CDRW/Rs You can use this device to play back DVD+R/RWs, DVD-R/RWs, (S)Video CDs(CD-RW/R), Audio CDs(CD-RW/R), MP3 CDs(CD-RW/R) of the respective standard. 1 Overview of functions The remote control REC/OTR n Record the current TV show on the HDD, mark recordings in the time shift buffer to be stored on HDD.

Thank you for buying a HDRW 720/00-02 . Discs you can use The following discs can be used in your DVD recorder for playback and recording: DVD+RW (Digital Versatile Disc + rewriteable) uses phase change media, the same technology on which rewritable CDs are based. A high-performance laser is used to change the reflective properties of the recording layer; this process can be repeated more than a thousand times. Time-shift TV viewing is possible with the hard disk drive (HDD) in your DVD-Recorder./Hard Disk By storing the recording in a time shift buffer, you can 'rewind' to a scene you missed while the current TV show is still being recorded. Recordings in the time shift buffer will be automatically deleted e.g. after 3 hours if the period of the time shift buffer is set to 3 hours (factory setting). Moreover, you can play back a DVD disc or a recorded title from the HDD while the current TV channel is being recorded in the background. You can store recordings from the time shift buffer on the built-in HDD and transfer (archive) them later on a DVD+RW/+R disc. DVD+R (Digital Versatile Disc + recordable) Unlike a DVD+RW disc, this disc can only be written to once. If it is not finalised after a recording, further recordings can be added to it. Old recordings can be later deleted but they can no longer be overwritten. The deleted recordings (titles) are marked 'Deleted title'. Before this disc can be played in a DVD player, it must be finalised in the DVD recorder. Once this process is complete, no further recordings can be added. Playback only Furthermore your Philips DVD Recorder /Hard Disk is a device for recording on DVD+RW/+R Discs and for playing digital video discs see next chapter. In the rest of the user manual the DVD Recorder/Hard Disk will be mentioned as DVD-Recorder. DVD Video (Digital Versatile Disc) is a storage medium that combines the convenience of the compact disc with the latest digital video technology. DVD video uses modern MPEG2 data compression technology that enables an entire feature film to be stored on a single five-inch disc. Please take the time to read this operating manual before using your DVD Recorder. It contains important information on how to set up and operate the device. DVD-R(DVD-Recordable) These discs can only be played back if the recording was made in video mode and the recording was finalised. We hope you will enjoy your new DVD Recorder / Hard Disk, your Philips team! If you have any problems operating the device, please read the section entitled 'Before you call an engineer'. If this doesn't help you to resolve the problem, please call the customer support service for your country. The telephone numbers and e-mail addresses can be found at the end of this instruction manual. You can also visit the website 'http://www.p4c.philips.com' .

P Reaction of the device When only one operation step is necessary You will find additional information in this section. Cleaning the discs Some malfunctions (frozen or distorted picture and broken sound for example) may be due to dirt on the disc. To avoid such problems, you should clean your discs regularly. • • Dirty discs should be cleaned with a soft cloth. Always wipe from the middle to the edge. Do not use any solvents such as benzine, thinners, commercially available cleaning agents, or antistatic sprays designed for vinyl records. Can I use a CD lens cleaner in the DVD recorder? Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD recorder operates at a higher power level than the ones in normal DVD and CD players, such CD lens cleaner discs may actually damage the optical unit (laser). Therefore, refrain from using a CD lens cleaner disc! Philips will not assume any liability for damage or loss of stored data. 9 Introduction Special functions of your DVD recorder Your PhilipsDVD recorder has a number of special functions to make it easier to use and to enhance your enjoyment. You can operate the main functions on your television using your DVD-Recorder recorder remote control, even if your television is not a Philips. You can upgrade the software of your DVD-Recorder with a CD-ROM. On the web site http://www.p4c.philips.com under the model number 'HDRW 720/00-02' you will find the data and the upgrade information. With this function you can align the sequence of the TV channels from the DVD-Recorder with that from yor TV. With this function the recording on the DVD-Recorder can be controlled via the scart socket. You can use this function if you have a satellite receiver that can control other devices via a scart cable and has a programming function (timer). For more information, consult the instruction manual of your satellite receiver. At the touch of a button your DVD recorder, even though it is switched off, will check which channel is currently playing on your television and record it. This connector is also known as a 'FireWire' or 'IEEE 1394'. This connector is used to transmit wide digital broadband signals that are used for digital video camcorders. Audio and video signals are transmitted using a cable. In addition to DV and Hi8 camcorders, PCs with digital video output can also be connected to the digital input. This screen tells you what's on the disc. Each index screen represents a recording. On the right hand side of the screen you can also see a disc indicator that shows the position and length of the current recording on the disc in a graphic format. This function enables you to simply delete unwanted scenes. The relevant scenes are marked and skipped as required. If you store (archive) such titles on a DVD+RW/+R you can decide if you want to store the original title (with the hidden scenes) or the edited title (without the hidden scenes). MP3 CDs can be played on this machine. MP3 files are highly compressed music files. The data is compressed to 1/10 of the volume of the original audio material using a special process. This means that 10 hours of music can be stored on a single CD. Using your DVD recorder you can record from an RGB source such as a satellite receiver using a SCART input ( EXT2 AUX-I/O socket). Video signals for the colours R(Red), G(Green) and B(Blue) are transmitted via separate channels. This reduces the interference that occurs with standard video cables. 10 Introduction The Philips DVD recorder can play back pre-recorded DVDs and CDs.

Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the mains'. 14 Connection with an SVideo(Y/C)cable Connection with video (CVBS) cable This connecting cable, also known as the SVHS cable, is used to transmit the brightness signal (Y signal) and colour signal (C signal) separately. This mini DIN socket/plug is also called a Hosiden socket/plug. This cable, usually with yellow Cinch connectors, is used for transmitting the Composite Video signal (FBAS, CVBS). In this method of transmission the colour signal and the brightness signal are transmitted on the same cable. In certain circumstances, this can lead to slight problems with the picture, such as 'Moiré' patterns. 1 Insert one end of an S-Video(SVHS) cable into the S-VIDEO OUT (Y/C) socket at the back of the DVD recorder and the other end into the S-Video (SVHS) input socket on the TV set (usually labelled 'S-Video in' or 'SVHS in'.

See TV operating instructions). O Read the next chapter 'Connecting additional devices' on how to connect additional devices (satellite receivers, videorecorders,...) to the input-/output sockets. O Read the next chapter 'Connecting additional devices' on how to connect additional devices (satellite receivers, videorecorders,...) to the input-/output sockets. Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the mains'. Then, read the chapter on 'Connecting to the mains'. Connection with the aerial cable only To connect this DVD-Recorder to a TV set without external Audio/Video input sockets, you need a modulator. With the modulator the audio/video signal is converted in an UHF-channel. This signal can be received and stored on the TV as a TV-station. 15 ENGLISH Connecting the DVD recorder Connecting the DVD recorder Connecting to the mains Always check if the local mains voltage matches the voltage range printed on the type plate at the back or bottom of the DVD-recorder. If not consult your dealer or the customer support from your country. 1 Switch on the TV set. 2 Insert one end of the supplied mains cable into the mains socket 4MAINS at the back of the DVD recorder and the other end into the wall socket. P The most important features of the DVD recorder will appear in scrolling text on the display. After the first installation is completed this function will be switched off. How you switch on this function again, read in the chapter 'User preferences' in the section 'standby'. Then, read the paragraph on 'Initial installation' in 'Installing your DVD recorder'. 16 Connecting additional devices Connecting additional devices to the second scart socket Connecting an external receiver 1 Connect the scart socket of the receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box,...) provided for the TV set (usually labelled 'TV', 'TO TV',...) with the EXT2 AUX-I/O socket of the DVD recorder. O If your external receiver offers several options for the signal Why can't I use the 'VCR', 'TO VCR',... socket? In order to achieve the best possible picture quality, you must use the RGB (red-green-blue) signal of the receiver. As a rule, this signal is available at the 'TV', 'TO TV',... socket. The DVD recorder transfers the signal to the EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket. Some receivers only provide a 'Video (CVBS/FBAS)' signal at the 'VCR', 'TO VCR'...socket. If you are satisfied with the picture quality of the 'VCR', 'TO VCR',... socket, you can also use this socket. Read the instruction manual of the receiver which signals are available at the sockets. You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the EXT2 AUX-I/O socket. When playback is started on this additional device the DVD recorder automatically connects the EXT2 AUX-I/O scart socket with the EXT1 TO TV-I/O scart socket. You will then see the picture from the additional device on your TV set, even if the DVD recorder is switched off. Connecting additional receivers For additional receivers, you can also use the EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket (if the TV set is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT sockets). O The TV/HDD button on the remote control allows you to switch between playback through the EXT2 AUX-I/O scart socket and playback from the DVD recorder. Connecting a video recorder, DVD player. You can also connect a video recorder or a DVD player to the EXT2 AUX-I/O input socket. The DVD recorder must be connected directly to the TV set ( EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket directly to the TV set). If there is a video recorder in between the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD recorder. O If you already have an external receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box) connected to this socket, you can connect the video recorder to the 'VCR', 'TO VCR', ...socket of the external receiver. O You can also use the front sockets S-VIDEO (CAM1) , VIDEO (CAM1) and the L AUDIO R (CAM1) audio sockets. For more information read the chapter 'Recording on the HDD'. 17 ENGLISH available at the 'TV', 'TO TV',... socket, choose the 'RGB' setting. Connecting additional devices Connecting additional devices only via aerial cable If you want to connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver...) only via aerial cable, please observe the following: The DVD-Recorder must be connected directly to the TV set. If there is a video recorder or an additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD-Recorder. Connect camcorder to the front sockets To copy camcorder recordings, you can use the front sockets. These sockets are located behind the flap on the right hand side. Recordings from the front sockets were stored on the HDD to make editing easy. Then you can transfer (archive) them on a DVD+RW/+R. Digital (DV) input socket If you have a DV or Digital 8 camcorder, connect the DV IN (CAM2) input of the DVD recorder to the appropriate DV output on the camcorder. Choose 'CAM2' as a programme number for this input. During recording on the HDD or a DVD+RW/+R the original recording date and time are stored as DVD subtitles. On playback, this data can be displayed on the TV screen by using the 'E' function (Subtitle). Svideo input socket If you have a Hi8 or S-VHS(C) camcorder, connect the S-VIDEO (CAM1) input of the DVD recorder to the appropriate S-VHS output on the camcorder. You must also connect the audio input L AUDIO R (CAM1) on the DVD recorder to the audio output on the camcorder. Choose 'CAM1' as a programme number for this input. The additional device (satellite receiver) must be connected before the DVD recorder (additional device - DVD recorder - TV set). Only the TV set must be connected to the TV OUT socket. If there is interference in the picture when the additional device is switched on, a TV broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the additional device. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 45, additional device (satellite receiver) also on channel 45). In this case, change the channel of the additional device (satellite receiver). Consult the instruction manual of the additional device. You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to record TV programmes from the additional device (satellite receiver). Switch on the additional device during the installation of the DVD recorder. During the automatic channel search, the channel on which the additional device is transmitting will be stored as a TV channel. 18 Video (CVBS) input socket If you have a camcorder that only has a single video output (Composite Video, CVBS), connect the VIDEO (CAM1) input on the DVD recorder to the appropriate output on the camcorder. You must also connect the audio input L AUDIO R (CAM1) on the DVD recorder to the audio output on the camcorder. Choose 'CAM1' as a programme number for this input. Connecting additional devices Connecting audio devices to the analogue audio sockets Two analogue audio sockets AUDIO OUT L/R (audio signal output left/right) are located at the back of the DVD recorder. ENGLISH These can be used to connect the following: •) a receiver with Dolby Surround Pro Logic •) a receiver with twochannel analogue stereo Can I use the 'Phono' input on my amplifier? This socket (input) on the amplifier is designed only for a record player without preamplifiers. Do not use this input for connecting the DVD recorder. The DVD recorder or the amplifier may be damaged as a result. Connecting audio devices to the digital audio sockets At the back of the DVD recorder there are two digital audio output sockets OPTICAL OUT for an optical cable and COAX OUT for a coaxial cable (Cinch cable). These can be used to connect the following: •) an A/V receiver or an A/V amplifier with a digital multichannel sound decoder •) a receiver with twochannel digital stereo (PCM) Digital multi-channel sound Digital multi-channel sound offers the best possible sound quality. You will need a multi-channel A/V receiver or amplifier that supports at least one of the audio formats of the DVD recorder (MPEG2 and Dolby Digital). Consult the operating instructions for your receiver to find out which audio formats it supports. a All I can hear from my loudspeakers is a loud distorted noise b The receiver is not compatible with the digital audio format of the DVD recorder.

Recording on the HDD General The Time shift Buffer Recordings in the time shift buffer will be automatically deleted e.g. after 3 hours if the period of the time shift buffer is set to 3 hours (factory setting). Only recordings marked in the Time shift Buffer will be stored on the the built-in HDD For more information, read the next section 'The Time Shift Buffer'. The following additional information is stored with each recording: •) name of the recording If no name is recognised from the GUIDE Plus+® systems data, only the programme number (programme name) and the time will be stored as the name. •) length of the recording •) recording mode (quality) •) date of the recording •) index picture of the recording As a result of the high data transfer speed of the HDD, it is possible to play back recordings from the time shift buffer while the recording is still in process. To facilitate the search of a specific position, a chapter marker is recorded every 5 minutes. How you switch off this function you will read in chapter 'User preferences for the HDD' in the section 'Preferences', 'Recording', 'Chapters'. After the recording is completed, you can select these markers with N , O . Please make sure that the chapter selection is activated (the 'CHAPTER' symbol lights up in the info bar at the top of the screen). If necessary, you can activate it using T/C . If you change the TV channel on the DVD-Recorder ( CHANNEL q , CHANNEL r ) a new title is created with the new TV channel in the time shift buffer. If you watch a TV show only for a short time (less than 60 seconds) before you change to a different TV channel, no new title is created. Therefore, you can jump back to the currently selected TV programme using JUMP BACK and watch a scene again. Moreover, you can use all playback features such as still picture, slow motion, search by time, search with N , O even with recordings that are still in the time shift buffer. In the meantime, the recording continues. For easier navigation, you can change the time period of the time shift buffer from 1 to 6 hours. 1 hour means that a recording is available only for one hour before it is automatically deleted to make room for the current recording. If the GUIDE Plus+® system delivers title information, the latter is also stored with the recording. When recording TV shows without GUIDE Plus+® information, only the date and the time of the recording are stored as title. What is the advantage from 1 hour and 6 hours? The complete time periode of the time will be displayed on the whole screen of your TV. With 1 hour you will get the highest comfort for searching a specific scene. With 6 hours you will get the highest possible recording time. Please observe that the Time shift Buffer needs also storage capacity on the HDD. Depending of the selected record mode (picture quality): 6 hours in 'M1' = approx. 28GB 6 hours in 'M8' = approx. 3,4GB How you enter the time periode, read in the chapter 'User preferences for the HDD' in the section 'Preferences' / 'Recording'/ 'HDD buffer'. 37 ENGLISH As soon as you turn on the DVD recorder, the currently selected TV channel on the DVD-Recorder is recorded in a temporary storage (Time shift Buffer).

The DVD recorder will switch to the right programme number and begin recording at the correct time. On this DVD recorder you can pre-programme up to 12 recordings within a period of one month. To make a programmed recording, your DVD recorder needs to know: * the date you want to make the recording * the programme number of the TV channel * the start and stop time of the recording * VPS or PDC on or off This information is saved in a 'TIMER block'. Before you begin, make sure the clock is set. If the clock is not set, the 'Time/Date' menu will appear when you press the TIMER s button. Programming recordings with the GUIDE Plus+® System The GUIDE Plus+® System has made it even easier to programme recordings. All you have to do is select the show you want to record from a channel listing. Preparation: •) The TV set is switched on, and, if necessary, the programme number for the DVD recorder has been selected. •) the DVD recorder is switched on. 1 Press GUIDE/TV on the remote control. What is 'VPS/PDC'? - 'VPS' (Video Programming System)/'PDC' (Programme Delivery Control) are used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than was scheduled, the DVD recorder will then turn on and off at the correct time. What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'? - Usually the start time is the same as the VPS or PDC time. If a different 'VPS/PDC time' is indicated, e.g.: '20.15 (VPS/PDC 20.14)', the VPS/PDC time '20.14' must be entered exactly to the minute during programming. If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS or PDC time, you must switch off VPS or PDC. - Only one TV program of a TV channel can be controlled using 'VPS/PDC' at a time. If you want to record two or more TV programmes on a TV channel using 'VPS/PDC', you will need to programme these as two separate recordings. - Since the DVD recorder requires a certain lead time (for getting the disc up to speed and positioning the laser) before recording can start, it is possible that the recorder will miss the first few seconds of a TV show recorded with VPS/PDC. In this case, disable VPS/PDC and enter a start time one minute earlier. 2 Use A or B to select the TV station, and D or C to select the show to record.

Glossar Chapters Also known as 'scenes', a DVD movie can be broken up into sections much like the chapters of a book, that can be accessed quickly and easily via the DVD menu or remote control. ENGLISH Component Video (Y Pb Pr) This method of transmitting pictures produces the highest quality as the video signal is split into its Y (brightness), U and V (blue minus brightness, red minus brightness) components. The signals are transmitted via separate cables. The plugs on these cables and the associated sockets are mostly coloured red, green and blue. NICAM NICAM is a digital sound transmission system. Using NICAM, you can transmit either 1 stereo channel or 2 separate mono channels. However, if reception is poor and the sound distorted you can turn off NICAM. NTSC National Television Systems Committee. The colour TV broadcast system used in the US, Canada and Japan. An NTSC picture is made up of 525 horizontal lines and has inferior picture quality in comparison to the PAL system. All Australian-sold DVD players are NTSC compatible, however DVD's that are played on a television that is not compatible will appear in black and white. PAL Phase Alternating Line. The colour TV broadcast system used in Australia, UK & Europe. A PAL picture delivers a better quality picture than NTSC due to its 625 horizontal lines (sharper picture and better colours). Region code Since DVD films are not normally released in all parts of the world at the same time, all DVD players have a specific regional code. Discs can be given a regional code. If the regional codes differ between the player and the disc, playback is not possible. The regional code of the DVD recorder is shown on the type plate at the back or bottom. 2channel sound Some TV programmes transmit an extra audio signal in stereo in addition to the normal audio signal (2-channel sound). In most cases this means that an additional language is available. If a TV programme is available in, say, English and German, German may be available as the second language. To record TV programmes in 2-channel sound, you can select the language you want as the default setting. This setting does not become active until the sound of a TV programme is transmitted in 2-channel sound. When you play back the recording you can play back the sound only in the language you used for the recording. Macrovision Macrovision is a copy-protection technique intended to keep you from making copies of DVDs with your VCR. It works by continuously adjusting the video signal level that results in a recording where the brightness of the picture continuously fluctuates between light and dark, and the color levels fluctuate between oversaturated and washed out.
