Step 3 Recording

There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is classified.

Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP (extended mode) according to the recording mode. When recording is set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining time on the disc.

Step 4 Playing

You can select the title you want to play in a displayed menu and then immediately start playback.

A DVD consists of sections, called titles, and sub sections, called chapters.

During recording, a title is created between two points where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be created automatically when you finalise recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in Video mode.

The chapter’s length (interval between chapters) varies according to the recording mode.

Step 5 Editing a recorded disc

Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The recorder supports many different edit functions, possible only with DVDs and HDD.

With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.

Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode, HDD)

With this recorder, you can create a new playlist on the same disc and edit it without the change of the original recording.

Step 6

Finalising & Playing on

other DVD components

 

To play your DVD on other DVD components, finalising may be necessary. First, finish all editing and recording operations, then finalise the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalising is generally unnecessary when playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component, a finalised disc should be used for playback on that type of component.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on anything other than this recorder. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised.

To enable recording on the disc again, disc should be unfinalised.

When using a DVD-R disc

You should finalise the disc to play it on a component other than this recorder. You cannot edit or record on the disc once it has been finalised.
