I used to have a Panasonic EX-75 and was able to archive recordings to DVD
Now I have an XS350 and want to do the same thing but it will not copy them at high speed.
I seem to remember that on the EX-75 there were 2 ways to copy but can only see one way on the XS350.
When I record on the hard disk I have a choice of 6 hours or 8 hours which I think relate to LP and EP modes respectively.
So the way it used to work was that if I recorded in 8 hour mode on the hard disk I could archive off in EP mode and it would copy at a higher speed. However, with this XS350 it always copies to DVD in real time so 50 minutes for a 50 minute program.
Been experimenting with this unit and it will not let me change the recording mode between EP, LP and SP, it comes up with an error says it "can only be changed when the source is AV or DV".
So if I am recording from freesat it records in something call DR mode, so how come it offers all these XL. LP and SP modes when you copy to DVD and has a no entry icon on the programme list.
On the EX-75 you could set the recording mode to say LP and then burn to DVD in LP mode with files being copied quickly rather than in real time.
So this model seems to be worse than old model.
I can't change the format of all the programs on my disk so my question is whether there is a way I can archive these programs to DVD at high speed?
