About Recording Modes

For importing/copying, two methods are available: High-speed Importing/Copying (without changing the recording mode), and Rec Mode Conversion Importing/Copying (reducing the data size converting to the different recording mode from the original recordings). Read the following and select according to the required time, disc space, and picture quality.

Importing/copying at high-speed (High-speed Importing/Copying)

n

Allows you to copy titles from HDD to a BD or import to HDD from a BD, without changing the mode.

Select [High-Speed] in [Recording Mode] when importing/ copying (page 97). See page 150 for required time for importing/copying.

zHints

•When importing/copying the edited titles at high-speed, the “seams” that are left over from editing may remain on the disc.

•Importing/copying between HDD and DVD automatically set to Rec Mode Conversion Importing/Copying.

Rec Mode Conversion Importing/Copying , n

Allows you to import/copy a title from the HDD to a DVD or vice versa, or import from HDD to a BD, in a recording mode that differs from the original recordings. For example, when you import/copy a title recorded in XR mode (high quality, but large data size) to SP mode, you can reduce the data size, saving more titles using less space.

If you copy a title of HDD recorded in DR or XR mode to a BD in SR, LR, or ER mode, or to a DVD in SP or LP recording mode, the unit automatically set the optimum picture quality, which makes the deterioration in the image quality minimum.
