Editing a DVD is not like editing a video tapeWhen you edit a video tape you need one video deck to play the original tape and another to record the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a “Playlist” of what to play and when to play it. On playback, the recorder plays the disc according to the playlist.
Original and PlaylistThroughout this manual, you will see the words Original and Playlist, which refer to the actual content and edited versions of a DVD.

You can create chapters within a title by inserting chapter marks at the points you want.
Note | Chapter markers are automatically inserted |
