Special functions of your DVD recorder

Your DVDR 730/00-02DVD recorder has a number of special functions to make it easier to use
and to enhance your enjoyment.
Philips provides the best possible connection between your DVD recorder and other home cinema
equipment.
Using the 'Digital Photo Manager', you can view and modify JPEG pictures from a memory card,
Picture CD, DVD, or a CD ROM. You can store them on a DVD+RW/+R or on the memory card.
You can create slide shows and play them on a DVD player.
The DVD recorder is controlled by external devices (receivers, TV sets and so on) via Cinema Link
and is automatically set to the right system settings.
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 'DVDR 730/00-02' 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.
The Type-2 PC Card slot (media slot) allows you to use an ATA Flash Card or other memory
cards using a PC Card adapter.
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. This information is stored on the DVD in such a way that other DVD players
will skip the 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.
Normally a recording is made at the current disc position. This is the same as for a video cassette,
in the middle of the tape for example. By holding down the REC/OTR n button, the recording
will be made at the end of all the other recordings to avoid overwriting previous recordings.
New recordings on DVD+R discs are always added after all existing recordings.
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.
