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.
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.
