Getting Started

CAUTION

• Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing

and no objects ﬁ lled with liqulds, such as vases, shall

be placed on the apparatus.

• The Mains plug is used as a disconnect device and

shall stay readily operable at any time.

IMPORTANT NOTE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a

moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the

fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug. If it requires

replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating

must be used. Never use the plug with the fuse cover

omitted if the cover is detachable.

If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the

same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement

covers are available from your dealer. If the ﬁ tted plug

is not suitable for the power points in your house or the

cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you

should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead

or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug,

remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do

not connect the plug to a mains socket, as there is a risk

of shock hazard from the bared ﬂ exible cord.

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug

must be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the

mains plug shall be readily operable.

How to use the DVD Recorder & VCR

Please check available disc type before recording.

● DVD-VR350

(DVD+RW/DVD+R discs can be played, but cannot be

recorded.)

● DVD-VR355

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 any changes, choose a non-rewritable

DVD±R.

Step 1 : Select the disc type

▌

Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts formatting

when an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the

preparation of recording on a disc.

Using a DVD-RAM

This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video

Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded

images and create a playlist in a speciﬁ c sequence

according to your requirements.

Using a DVD±RW/+R

• When an unused DVD±RW/+R disc is ﬁ rst inserted,

the message “Uninitialised Disc. Do you want to

initialise this disc?” will be displayed. If you select Yes,

initialising will be start. DVD-RW disc can be formatted

in either DVD-Video format (Video mode) or DVD-Video

Recording format (VR mode)

• With DVD+RW discs, there is no difference between

DVD-Video format (Video mode) and DVD-Video

Recording format (VR mode).

Using a DVD-R

Formatting disc is unnecessary and only V mode Recording

is supported. You can play this type of disc on various DVD

components only when they have been ﬁ nalised.

Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording

▌

You can only use either the VR or V mode on a

DVD-RW, but not both at the same time.

You can format a DVD-RW to V or VR mode using

disc manager. It should be noted that the data of

the disc may be lost when changing formats.

■

There are two different recording methods: Direct

Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is

classiﬁ ed as a Date : Once, Daily or Weekly.

Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard

quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP

(extended mode).

Step 4 : Playing

▌

You can select the title you want to play in a displayed

menu and then immediately start playback.

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 when you ﬁ nalise

recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in V mode.

You can make your own chapters on DVD+RWs and edit

them using the Chapter Edit menu.

The chapter’s length (interval between chapters) varies

according to the recording mode.

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, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.

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

With this recorder, you can create a new playlist on the

same disc and edit it without the change of the original

recording.

Step 6

:

Finalising & Playing on other DVD components

▌

To play your DVD on other DVD components, ﬁ nalising

may be necessary. First, ﬁ nish all editing and recording

operations, then ﬁ nalise the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although ﬁ nalising is generally unnecessary when playing

the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a ﬁ nalised

disc should be used for playback.

When using a DVD-RW disc in V mode

The disc should be ﬁ nalised 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 nalised.

When using a DVD±R disc

You should ﬁ nalise the disc to play it on a component

other than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on the

disc once it has been ﬁ nalised.

Install Batteries in the Remote Control

• Open the battery cover on the back of the remote

control.

• Insert two AAA batteries. Make sure that the polarities

(+ and -) are aligned correctly.

• Replace the battery cover.

Progressive Scan

▌

Your TV must support progressive scan input to

allow to watch progressive scan component video

See your TV User’s Manual to ﬁ nd out if your TV

supports Progressive Scan.

If Progressive Scan is supported, follow the TV

User’s instructions regarding Progressive Scan

settings in the TV’s menu system.

Progressive scanning method can provide better

and clearer picture quality.

You must connect the DVD Recorder & VCR to

the component(s) before using the Progressive

Scan feature.

The Component jacks will not output video

resolutions above 576p.

HDMI (High Deﬁ nition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is an interface to enable the digital

transmission of video and audio data with just a

single connector. Since HDMI is based on DVI,

it is completely compatible with DVI. The only

difference between HDMI and DVI is that HDMI

supports multi-channel audio.

Using HDMI, the DVD Recorder & VCR transmits

a digital video and audio signal and displays a

vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data

and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

- Though the DVD Recorder & VCR uses a HDMI

cable, the DVD Recorder & VCR outputs only a

pure digital signal to the TV.

- If TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth

Digital Content Protection), snow noise appears

on the screen.

Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio

signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data

transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a

digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Recorder

& VCR) or an analog-to-digital converter (in

the TV) is required. During this conversion, the

picture quality is degraded due to noise and

signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because

it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital

signal from the DVD Recorder & VCR to your TV.

What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection) is a system for protecting DVD

content outputted via HDMI from being copied.

It provides a secure digital link between a video

source (PC, DVD, etc) and a display device (TV,

projector, etc). Content is encrypted at the source

device to prevent unauthorized copies from being

made.

To watch through the HDMI output, set the

digital audio output to PCM. (See page 26)

Depending on the HDMI device (TV/HDMI Receiver)

you use, audio may not be supported. If TV does

not support Dolby digital/DTS, Audio output is not

available when you set Digital output as Bitstream

or select DTS On in Audio setup menu. In this case,

set the digital audio output to PCM or DTS off.

If you connect the HDMI cable between Samsung

TV, you can operate easily DVD Recorder

& VCR using the TV remote control. (This is

only available with Samsung TVs that support

Anynet+(HDMI-CEC).) (See pages 33~34)
