●If a blank portion or disturbed image is played back on the player during dubbing, the dubbing may stop so that an unusual image is not dubbed.

●If “Playback Zoom” (
pg. 60), “Playback Special Effects” (
pg. 59) or “Snapshot” is attempted during playback, only the original playback image recorded on the tape is output from the DV connector.
