You can use the Play command from the Disc Navigator menu to do this.

Note

1 When editing VR mode Original content, it may not be possible to erase chapters less than five seconds long.

2It may not always be possible to combine two chapters, even though they are adjacent. If a chapter has been divided into three, then the middle chapter erased, it is not possible to combine the two remaining chapters into one.

3• If you pause a recording in VR mode, the recorder automatically starts a new chapter when you restart the recording.

When recording in Video mode, the recorder automatically puts chapter markers in at regular intervals. It is not possible to add extra chapter markers manually after recording (see also Auto Chapter (Video) on page 118).

The Play List and Original content on a disc can each contain up to 999 chapters.

Each HDD title can contain a maximum of 99 chapters.

Similar chapter editing commands are available for HDD content from the HDD to DVD copy screen. See also Copying from HDD to DVD on page 73.
