Notes on copying manually from a video

device

When connecting the camera to the DVDirect
with a DV (i LINK) cable, a video appears in
the DVDirect’s display window a little behind
appearing in the camera’s LCD screen. When
copying a video, operate the DVDirect while
monitoring the DVDirect ‘s display window.
Start recording immediately after inserting a
disc. The recording process may take a few
seconds to start after pressing the (record)
button if the disc was inserted more than 10
minutes prior to starting.
When you press the (stop) button, you may
hear the noise of the disc turning momentarily.
