To automatically record broadcast programs
—Tuner Auto Recording
You can automatically record broadcast program(s) while
you are tuning in to the FM or AM stations. So you can
always keep the most recent tuned program(s) for up to 30
minutes in the HDD. When you stop tuning in to the FM/
AM stations, Tuner Auto Recording stops.
These recorded program(s) will be stored as a single track
in a single album in a library named "Library TUNER."
• "AAC 96 kbps" is automatically selected as the recording
format.
• Tuner Auto Recording will be canceled when Recording
Timer or Daily Timer starts operating.
IMPORTANT: With Tuner Auto Recording activated,
recording in "Library TUNER" is automatically erased
and overwritten if you tune in to an FM or AM station
after—
• you have selected any source other than FM/AM, or
• you have turned off the unit.
If you want to keep an important recording done using
Tuner Auto Recording, copy the album in "Library
TUNER" before it is erased. To copy the album, use the
COPY ALBUM function (see page 54).
