Recording is automatically paused if the recorder detects no signal, or a copy-protected signal. Recording restarts when there is a non-copy- protected signal.

You can pause or stop the recording by selecting Pause Rec or Stop Rec from the on-screen display. You cannot control the camcorder from this remote control during recording.

If you restart recording after stopping the camcorder, the first few seconds of the camcorder tape will not be recorded. Use the pause button on your camcorder instead and recording will start immediately.

VR Mode only: A chapter marker is inserted every time there is a break in the timecode on the DV tape. This happens when the recording is stopped or paused then restarted, for example.

While recording, you cannot exit the DV recording screen using the HOME MENU or RETURN button.

Note

Depending on the connected camcorder, you may not be able to control it using the remote control supplied with this recorder.

If the audio subcode on the DV tape cannot be read correctly, the audio type will not switch automatically. You can switch the audio manually from the External Audio setting (page 74).

See also DV-related messages on page 88 if you encounter an error while using the DV IN/OUT jack.

Playing your recordings on other DVD players

VR mode Video mode

Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs recorded in Video mode. A number of players (including many Pioneer models) can also play DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode, finalized or not. Check the manual that came with the player to check what kinds of discs it will play.

When you finalize a Video mode disc, a title menu is created from which you can select titles when you play the disc. There are a number of different styles of title menu to choose from to suit the content of the disc.

All the title menus are navigated in the usual way, pressing MENU or TOP MENU to display the menu, then

using the(cursor buttons) followed by ENTER to select titles and start playback.

Finalizing a disc

VR mode Video mode

Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc can be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.

Note that the disc name will appear in the title menu after you finalize a disc. Make sure the disc name is as you want it before you finalize the disc as it can’t be changed afterwards. If you want to rename the disc, see Input Disc Name on page 66 before starting the steps below.

Important

Once you’ve finalized a disc recorded in Video mode, you can’t edit or record anything else on that disc. However, the finalization on a DVD-RW disc maybe ‘undone’; see Undo Finalize on page 67 for how to do this.
