Some HDV Camcorders Require a Moment to Synchronize

Some HDV camcorders require a moment to synchronize the video from an external source. Typically during this period, they display a solid blue or black video until synchronized.

Forward Search XX

Press this button to play video at speeds different than real-time.

Fast Forward and Reverse

Pressing the Forward Search button multiple times results in increases in the search speed, i.e. fast forward. This mode works both in forward and reverse functions. For instance, if you are in 10X FF speed and you press the Back Search button once, the DR-HD100 is now in 2X FF mode. In addition, this applies to backward search speeds. The default speed resolution is as follows (NTSC and PAL have slightly different multiples for < 1X)

•Reverse: -30X, -10X, -2X, -1X (reverse play), -1/2X(-15fps), Still.

•Forward: Still, +1/2X (+15fps), +1X (play), +2X, +10X, +30X

Fast Forward and Reverse Search Compatible Camcorders

In Forward and Reverse Search modes, some camcorders do not display video when played-back from an external device, such as the DR-HD100.

Search Modes and HD Recorder Mode

Slow-motion Forward Playback and all Reverse Playback search modes are not available when in HD Recorder mode.
