•Manual recording

In addition to the four preset recording quality modes

(FINE, SP, LP and EP), the manual recording mode allows you to access 32 different recording quality/time settings, giving you very fine control over the recording.

•Record to and from a DV camcorder (DVR-320 only)

This recorder has a built-in DV (Digital Video) input/ output jack for connection to a DV camcorder. This makes it ideal for transferring camcorder footage to DVD for editing. You can also transfer DVD content back to the camcorder if you need to.

• Safe, non-destructive editing

When you edit a DVD-RW, the actual content of the disc (the Original content) is not touched. The edited version (the Play List content) just points to various parts of the Original content.

• Chapter marking

You can easily add chapter markers anywhere in your recordings for easy editing.

•Play Video mode recordings on a regular DVD

player

Discs recorded using the Video mode can be played back on regular DVD players, including computer DVD drives

compatible with DVD-Video playback*2.

*2 ‘DVD-Video format’ recording: The use of the DVD- Video format for recording on DVD-R and DVD-RW discs is referred to as recording in ‘Video mode’ on Pioneer’s DVD recorders. Supporting playback of DVD-R / DVD- RW discs is optional for manufacturers of DVD playback equipment, and there is DVD playback equipment that does not play DVD-R or DVD-RW discs recorded in the DVD-Video format.

Note: ‘Finalization’ is required.

•WMA, MP3 and JPEG file playback

This recorder can play WMA and MP3 audio files and JPEG picture files on CD-R, CD-RW or CD-ROM discs (see Disc / content format playback compatibility on page 11).
