Notes for high speed copy

High Speed Copying is the process of copying a title to disc in high speed while maintaining the original record mode and recording length. If any conversion is required during the copy process, the copying will be done at normal speed.

The following recording mode and media combinations support high speed copying.

Converting the recording mode will result in a normal speed copy.

High speed copy is possible only when there is enough recording capacity on the destination media.

It is impossible to copy at high speed in the following cases:

-[HDD] > [DVD-R] [DVD-RW] [+R] [+RW] :

Copy including a title that was recorded to HDD with “Rec for High Speed Copy” set to “Off” (> 71)

Titles that contain many deleted segments

Titles (SD Video) that have been copied to the HDD from an SD card or a Panasonic video camera, etc. (> 58)

-[HDD] > [+R] [+RW] :

Titles recorded in “EP” mode and “FR (recordings 5 hours or longer)” mode

Titles recorded in 16:9 aspect

-[HDD] > [DVD-R] [DVD-RW] :

Titles recorded via AV input in 16:9 aspect using “EP” mode or “FR (recordings 5 hours or longer)” mode

Notes for normal speed copy

[DVD-R] [DVD-RW] [+R] [+RW]

You cannot copy to the disc in the following cases.

-When there is not enough free space on the HDD.

-When the number of titles recorded to the HDD and the number of titles to be copied to the disc is greater than 999 in total.

If copy is cancelled during the step while temporarily copying to the HDD, then nothing will be copied.

Even if the title was not copied to the disc, the amount of remaining writable disc space becomes less.

Notes for copying to the DVD-RAM

When copying to DVD-RAM using “8 hours” mode, play may not be possible on DVD players that are compatible with DVD-RAM. Use “6 hours” mode if playback may be on other equipment. (> 70, Recording time in EP mode)

About maintaining the chapter mark

The position of the chapter might shift slightly.

Maximum number of chapters on the disc is limited.

-[RAM] [DVD-R] [DVD-RW] : Approx. 1000

-[+R] [+RW] : Approx. 254

(Depends on the state of recording.)
