∫About FR Mode

When “Time Limit” is set to “Off” in Step 6 above:

≥The recording mode is automatically selected by estimating the remaining capacity of the disc for transfer (dubbing) of only the

recorded parts in the video cassette (unrecorded parts will not be recorded).

≥When you press [ENTER] to start transfer (dub), the tape is automatically fast-forwarded to the end and then fast-rewound to the beginning before the transfer (dubbing) is actually started. It may take time to start transfer (dub). If the remaining capacity of the disc is insufficient, the transfer (dubbing) will be stopped in the middle.

≥The recording is divided into titles every time the tape index signals are detected.

When “Time Limit” is set to “On” in Step 6 above:

≥The recording mode is automatically determined by estimating the remaining capacity of the disc for transfer (dubbing) of the contents equivalent to the recording time set from the start point of the transfer (dubbing) on the video cassette (unrecorded parts will also be recorded).

≥The recording is not divided into titles.

[5]Press [REC MODE] to select the recording mode. (l 25)
