You need first to select an empty title with enough space for the new recording. Do this using browser.

The DVDR610 remembers the last position you were at when you switched the unit in standby. Therefore you can "cue" up the recording to whatever point on the disk you want to record from before switching the machine into standby. You obviously, as the previous post said, have to make sure there is adequate space or you will overwrite previous recording.

Another option is to "protect" existing titles (I think the option is on the browser screen, but I`m at work so I can`t check !). The recorder will then stop recording when it reaches the protected title. However, it won`t skip over it and carry on recording after the protected title. Have only tried this before with manual recording, not sure about timed recording - presume it will work.
