When you turn it on, do you have to wait for an "access" screen to go away before you can record?

Yes, usually less than a second. But I leave mine on VOR so that it records when it hears a sound or gets a signal (I usually record through a wire) so that it doesn't miss anything.

No... I don't have it connected to my computer at all times... only when I want to record something of my DVR. But, this means you cannot automatically schedule recordings.

The camera will turn off the display after one minute, 5 minutes or never. It is a setting in the menu. As long as the red led remains lit the camera is still recording. You can turn back on the display by pressing the button all the way to the right.

If you hold the pause/hold button too long, it powers off. I will not pick up where you left off when recording or playing.

Not to my knowledge. I've not tried to do this but the playback and record menus are not operable at the same time.

No. It will come out of standby to record an event but you can't change channel or watch a previous recording while it records. Press info on the remote to hide the "rec 00:00:00" message from the top left corner if you want to watch as it records.

Why wouldn't you want it to turn off? I will turn on as needed to record you send show. We have several shows taped at different times. I just turns on when needed to record. I suppose you could just leave your recorder on if you choose.

you can set it to just record on to your computer but you will have to come back when the playing is done.

Hi. Yes the screen turns off but it's still recording. You can click the last button to turn the screen back on.

Mine has options in the menu for loop recording ("off", "3 min", "5 min", and "10 min"). I have it set to "off". When full it displays an icon that indicates that it's recording over the old footage, but when I go to play back the latest recording it isn't available. I pulled the card to check it on my laptop and

Yes, it is normal. The screen goes blank after one minute. You can change that option if you wish. You can tell it is still recording because the red light is on.

I don't know if this is a question, but if there is no video input it will turn itself off after a timeout period. I've never had it turn on by itself though.

When you plug it in, it turns on and starts recording automaticaly. There is a button to pause recording if you want. When you unplug it, it turns off in a little while or you can just press the on/off button to turn it off manually
