You can record the entire contents of a DV format tape onto a disc with a single press of the ONE TOUCH DUBBING button. The recorder controls the digital video camera for the whole process, and completes the recording.

◆How chapters are created

The dubbed contents on the disc become one title, and the title is divided into chapters. For the HDD and a DVD-RW (VR mode), every shooting on the tape becomes a chapter on the disc (Auto Scene Chaptering function). For other discs, the recorder divides the title in either 6 or 15-minute intervals, according to the setting in “Auto Chapter” in Features Setup.
