Advanced Program Edit (page 64)

The recorder copies the entire contents of a DV/Digital8 format tape to a DVD-RW in VR mode, whereupon the contents are automatically divided into chapters. The chapters are displayed as scenes in a scene list where you can instantly delete or rearrange the scenes at will. After you have selected the scenes, you can either create a Playlist of the selected scenes in the DVD-RW (VR mode), or you can change discs and record the scenes to another disc of your choice.

Re-editing the DV Edit List (DVD-RW in VR mode only) (page 67)

Each time you make a One Touch Dub or Advanced Program Edit using a DVD-RW (VR mode), the start and stop points of the selected scenes (called a “program”) are saved in a DV Edit List. You can make additional changes to this “program.”

Copy Dubbing (page 69)

Allows you to make copies of the programs contained in the DV Edit List to a disc of your choice.

zHints

The date and time of the recording made with your digital video camera is assigned as the program name in the DV Edit List (page 67) (example: DV11.10.2002 13:30 – 12.10.2002 16:46).

If you set “Finalize Disc” to “Auto” in Features Setup (page 81), the recorded disc will automatically be finalized after recording is finished.

Notes

The recorder does not start One Touch Dub when you set “Add to Edit List” to “On” (default) in Features Setup (page 81) and there are already twenty programs on the recorder. In this case, the recorder

beeps and the front panel display flashes. Delete unnecessary programs from the DV Edit List menu (page 67) and repeat the steps above.

When a blank space on the tape continues for more than five minutes, One Touch Dub ends automatically.

This function may not work with certain digital video cameras. In this case, follow the instructions of “Recording From Equipment Connected to the LINE IN Jacks(page 71).

In order for a One Touch Dub recording to be added to the DV Edit List, “Add to Edit List” in Features Setup must be set to “On” (default) (page 81).
