Instant Timer Recording

Dubbing and Editing

If you wish to edit or dub your camcorder (or another VCR) recordings to this DVD+VCR, the rear (or Front) panel mounted Audio and Video (A/V) input jacks make the connections quick and easy. These direct A/V jacks will also provide better picture results than using the RF jack on the rear panel.

1 Connect the camcorder’s (or another VCR’s) A/V outputs to your DVD+VCR as illustrated on page 13.

2 Set the input channel “LINE2”. (use INPUT to select LINE2.)

If you have connected your DVD+VCR to the A/V input jacks on the rear of DVD+VCR, you should select the input channel LINE1 by pressing INPUT twice.

3 Play the tape in the camcorder (or another VCR). If you have a TV attached to your DVD+VCR, you can see the video playing.

4 When you desire the recording to begin, press DVD+VCR’s REC/ITR (z) once to start.
