•If you create chapters in a title which is stored in the HDD and copy the title to a DVD-R/RW, the chapter divisions may shift.

Creating chapters automatically when recording

5)	Press / to select a chapter whose
	beginning you want to shift.
6)	Press FRAME (II / II) repeatedly until a
	desired scene appears.

Select a point while monitoring the thumbnail, which changes as you press the button.

•Shifting a chapter mark restores a thumbnail to the beginning of a chapter. This may occur also on the previous chapter depending on the data condition.
