38Recording with the Front Panel

This DVD recorder recording operations can be carried out in two different ways — namely, using the buttons provided on the front

panel and using the on-screen REC CONTROL panel. In the latter case, furthermore, recording operations can be performed using

a keyboard. The following section, however, will provide a description of recording using the front panel buttons.

On a DVD, the section of video recorded between the start of recording and pressing of the STOP button to end recording is stored

as a single title, and a unique title number is assigned to each of these sections. A single disc can contain up to 99 different titles.

In addition, each title can be separated into a number of different chapters by inserting chapter marks at the appropriate points, and

each title can contain up to 99 chapters.

Information relating to titles and chapters is stored on a disc in the form of title and chapter menus. When the disc is being played,

therefore, the title and chapter menus can be used to access specific sections of stored video and audio.

Inserting Chapter Marks Manually or Automatically

It is possible to insert a chapter mark either manually or automatically.

Indexes are written together with chapter marks.

The actual method to be used is determined by CHAPTER CREATION and

SET INTERVAL from the RECORDER MENU (1/2) screen.

●If chapter marks are to be inserted manually at any point, set CHAPTER

CREATION to MANUAL.

Chapter marks and indexes can then be inserted by pressing the REC button

while recording.

●If chapter marks are to be inserted automatically, first of all set CHAPTER

CREATION to AUTO. Then use SET INTERVAL to set a time (in minutes) for

chapter mark insertion.

The DVD recorder will insert chapter marks and indexes at the corresponding

intervals during recording.

Whether a chapter mark is automatically inserted or not during a recording

pause is set with the AUTO CHAPTER (REC PAUSE) item.

ON : Insert a chapter mark and index.

OFF: Do not insert a chapter mark and index.

Note

When recording is stopped or a title is

closed, the message will appear on the

VIDEO LINE OUT, Y/C OUT, or DVI OUT

monitor.

Using the Foot Switch to Perform Recording

Operations such as recording and writing chapter marks (indexes) can be performed using the external switch that is connected to

the foot switch terminal at the rear of this unit.

●Use the FOOT SW1 terminal to turn ON/OFF recording. The FOOT SW1 item on the REMOTE menu screen can be used to

specify whether to use the FOOT SW1 terminal as well as to specify conditions for using the terminal. (☞ Page 70)

●Use the FOOT SW2 terminal to write chapter marks (indexes). The FOOT SW2 item on the REMOTE menu screen can be used

to specify whether to use the FOOT SW2 terminal as well as to specify conditions for using the terminal. (☞ Page 70)

Notes

●The frame at which a chapter mark is inserted will be used for the

corresponding thumbnail in the chapter menu. When EDIT MENU from

the DVD MENU screen is set to ENABLE, the frames used for thumbnails

can be modified on the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen that appears

automatically at the end of recording.

●Each title can contain up to 99 chapters.

●In certain cases, the frames used for chapter menu thumbnails may differ

slightly from the exact frames at which the corresponding chapter marks

were inserted.

●Indexes can be added or deleted when in the Playback mode.
