Timer Recording (cont’d)
VPS (Video Programme System) / PDC (Programme Delivery Control)
The Video Programme System (VPS) or Programme Delivery Control (PDC) assures that the TV programmes
you have programmed for timer recording are recorded exactly from beginning to end, even if the actual
broadcasting time differs from the scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of the programme
duration. Furthermore, if a programme is interrupted, the recording will also be interrupted automatically
and resumed when the programme starts again.
If the VPS / PDC signal drops out because the broadcast signal is weak, or if a broadcasting station does not
transmit a regular VPS / PDC signal, the timer recording is performed in normal mode (without VPS / PDC)
even if it was programmed for VPS / PDC. If the starting time of the VPS / PDC timer recording is between
0:00 and 3:59 on a given day, the VPS / PDC function will operate from 20:00 on the previous day to 4:00
on the next day. If the starting time of the VPS / PDC timer recording is between 4:00 and 23:59 on a given
day, the VPS / PDC function will operate from 0:00 on the given day to 4:00 on the next day. This means
that if the relevant programme is broadcasted within this period, it is recorded correctly. If the timer is not
programmed correctly, the incorrect timer setting stays in effect unless you cancel it. To cancel an incorrect
timer setting, refer to “Checking, cancelling, or correcting the timer programming information” on page 32.
