+RW -RWVR-RWVideo+R

-RVR-RVideo

You can simply record the entire contents of a DV/ D8 format tape onto a disc. The recorder controls the DV camcorder for the whole process. You can also select the scenes on the tape using the on- screen display. See “Dubbing selected scenes” on page 88.

◆How titles and chapters are created

The dubbed contents on the disc become one title, and the title is then divided into chapters at either 5 or 15-minute intervals, according to the “DVD Auto Chapter” setting of “Features” in the “Setup” display.

Notes

•To play the dubbed disc on other DVD equipment, finalize the disc (page 66). If you set “Auto Finalize” to “On” in the “Features” setup (page 103), the Auto Finalize function works for DVD-RWs (Video mode), DVD-Rs (Video mode) and DVD+Rs after dubbing. For details, see page 67.

•Do not connect the (USB) jack at the same time.
