Title & Chapter Menu Settings
BD-X200 Title & Chapter Menus
This DVD recorder can automatically create title and chapter menus in response to recording operations and can save these to the disc being recorded.
When the disc is subsequently played, these title and chapter menus can be used to access specific sections of stored video and audio.
●When recording is stopped using the STOP button or a similar action (i.e., disc closing), a title number and a thumbnail (corresponding to the frame at the start of recording) will be created to form part of the disc’s title menu. A single disc can contain up to 99 different titles.
●Similarly, if a chapter mark is inserted during recording, a chapter number and a thumbnail (corresponding to the frame at the chapter mark) will be created to form part of the title’s chapter menu. Chapter marks are used as targets for skipping during playback. Each title can contain up to 99 chapters.
