Recording with the Front Panel
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.
Insert a disc that can be recorded on.
1. With the DVD recorder stopped, make all of the required settings and
adjust the audio recording levels.
2.Start recording.
This is done by pressing the REC and PLAY buttons simultaneously.
3.Pause recording.
This is done by pressing the PAUSE button.
•The recording pause mode is entered.
When the AUTO CHAPTER (REC PAUSE) item of the RECORDER [1/2]
screen is set to ON, a chapter mark is automatically inserted when the
recording pause mode is entered.
A number of different methods can also be used for the manual or auto-
matic insertion of chapter marks. (XPage40)
4.Restart recording.
Press the PLAY or PAUSE button.
•Recording will begin once again and a new chapter will be created in the
current title.
5.End recording (i.e., close the title)
Press the STOP button when either recording or paused.
•The action of the DVD recorder following the end of recording depends on
the setting of EDIT MENU from the DVD MENU screen.
DISABLE : Recording is ended and the chapter menu is created using pre-
set settings (i.e., the title is closed).
ENABLE : The THUMBNAIL EDIT screen will appear. This screen can be
used to modify the chapter menu’s display style, to change the
thumbnails used, to input chapter names, and to perform other
similar functions. For more details, refer to Page48.
If additional recording is to be carried out, repeat steps 1 through 5
above.
•In such a case, the subsequent recording is stored as a new title.
