Combining Multiple Scenes

You can combine multiple scenes into one.

Be sure to select consecutive multiple scenes when combining.

1 Use the joystick to select the scenes to be com- bined, referring to “Selecting Consecutive Scenes Together” on page 70, and then press the MENU button.

The Disc Navigation menu screen will appear.

2 Use the joystick to choose, “Scene”, “Edit”, “Combine”, and then

press the button.

The screen for verifying combination of scenes will appear.

3 If you are sure that you wish to combine the scenes, use the joystick to choose “YES”, and

then press the but- ton.

The selected movies will be combined into one, and the thumbnail display screen will be re- stored: The first scene before combination will appear as a thumbnail.

Note: Still images cannot be combined.

Note: If you choose “NO” on the screen for veri- fying combination, combination will be canceled. Note: To restore the separated status of a com- bined scene, divide it.

Note: With special effects, the "in" effect of the first scene in the selected range and the "out" ef- fect of the last scene will be chosen.

Note: If you combine scenes from different pro- grams (different recording dates), a message that prompts you to update the control information will appear when power is turned on and Disc Navi- gation is first started (see page 100). Note that if you choose “YES” for this message, the combined scenes will be split into separate scenes.

If you choose “NO” for this message, the scenes will be combined, but the same message will ap- pear each time Disc Navigation is started. To pre- vent this, when combining scenes from different programs, create a new play list and combine the scenes on it.

Note: Pressing the button on the screen for veri- fication will restore the thumbnail display screen.
