Using Copy Lists

* See also Copyright on page 81.

At its simplest, a Copy List is just a list of HDD or DVD titles that you want to copy. When copying HDD titles to DVD, you can, however, edit the titles in your copy list, erasing chapters you don’t need, or re- naming titles, for example. Edits you make to titles in the Copy List do not affect the actual video content; only the ‘virtual’ content of the Copy List. So you can freely erase and modify anything in your Copy List safe in the knowledge that the actual content is not being altered.

Copying from HDD to DVD

Important

•The recorder can only store one Copy List at a time.

•The Copy List is erased if the Input Line System setting is changed (see Additional information about the TV system settings on page 119).

•Resetting the recorder to its factory settings (see Resetting the recorder on page 138) will erase the Copy List.

1Load a recordable DVD.

•It is possible to complete the following steps without having a recordable DVD loaded (or having an uninitialized DVD loaded); however, the steps are slightly different.

•If you want to use a DVD-RW (VR mode) disc for the copy, make sure it is initialized before you start.

Note

1 In manual recording mode these equate to MN1 to MN15 (Video Mode Off) or MN1 to MN8 (Video Mode On).
