Delete Chapter Marker (DVD+RW discs only). Since the DVD/VCR adds chapter markers according to how you have them set up in the Setup Menu, you may want to make each chapter longer by deleting a chapter marker during playback.

Hide Chapter (DVD+RW discs only). During playback you can hide a specific chapter so it is automatically skipped. For more information, see below.

Editing Titles with the Hide Chapter Feature

As with most editing features on recorded discs, Hide Chapter is only available with DVD+RW discs. You have to Insert a Chapter Marker at the beginning and the end of the part of the recording you want to “hide.”

Note: Since the DVD/VCR adds chapter markers according to how you have them set up in the Setup Menu, it might be a good idea to Clear All Chapter Markers before using the Hide Chapter feature. To find the Clear Chapters option, go to the Disc menu and select Disc Title Menu. Highlight the title you want to clear chapters from, and press OK. Highlight Clear Chapters, and press OK.
