You may also find that you can't record certain DVD discs as the digital output of the DVD player can be disabled by the disc. Of course, if you do encounter SCMS or other digital-copy restrictions, you can always record through the analog inputs of the PDR-05. To check whether a source is digital-copy protected, see Checking for Digital Copy Protection on page 60. Digital recording from DAT If you're recording a DAT tape that was recorded using the DAT machine's auto ID function, the IDs on the tape are slightly after the beginning of the actual recording. This can cause problems for the CD recorder: · The start of the track may not be recorded. · The track number will be recorded on the disc after the start of the track. · The beginning of the next track on the DAT is unintentionally recorded. To avoid these problems, we recommend recording start IDs on the DAT manually, if possible. If this is not possible, or if there are no start IDs on the DAT, we recommend using manual track numbering while recording to CD to ensure that new tracks are starting in the right places. Refer to the instructions for your DAT recorder for more information. You might also encounter problems if you try to synchrorecord all tracks from a DAT that is set to program play.

In this case, we recommend using manual recording (see pages 22). Check the display to make sure that there's enough space on the disc for what you want to record.
