Creating a DVD-Video using DVD-R/RW (Continued)

Notes

The number of titles that you can write on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode) is limited (99 titles. Each title should have 99 chapters or less). If you have a large number of titles or chapters, you may not be able to write due to the limitation of the DVD specifications. Also, even if the number of titles and chapters is within the limit, you may not be able to write if you have a large number of menu items.

Due to standard differences, the number of chapters and their position may change slightly after DVD-Video creation. (For chapters generated on the DVD-R/RW (Video mode), the same thumbnail for the Original chapter is displayed.)

Due to standard limitation, DVD-R/RW (Video mode) may contain unnecessary scenes after creation.

If you select items of various types of video outputs, aspect ratios or other properties, or if you select an item recorded with different settings, they may be divided into titles. (For titles generated on the DVD-R/RW (Video mode), the same thumbnail for the Original title is displayed).

Content based on a complicated Playlist or composed of too many items may not be copied properly.

Copy-once permitted contents cannot be copied to a DVD-R/RW (Video mode), even if they are recorded onto

the HDD while “DVD compatible mode” is set to “On (Mode

I)” or “On (Mode II)” ( page 28).

Content recorded on a recorder other than this recorder (including TOSHIBA products) cannot be copied to a DVD- R/RW (Video mode) using High speed dubbing. First set “DVD compatible mode” to “On (Mode I)” or “On (Mode II)”

and record them onto the HDD. Then perform “Change

quality dubbing” ( page 94) to copy to the HDD.

When a content is recorded with manual rate 1.0 Mbps or 1.4 Mbps and is including a 16:9 picture shape scene, the DVD creation of the content may failure. In this case, set “Set aspect ratio” to “4:3 fixed” on the menu “(Option Settings)”.

Even if the title is recorded with “DVD compatible mode” set to “On (Mode I)” or “On (Mode II)”, using a recorder other than this may cause failure when recording to a DVD-R/RW.

If the DVD-R creating fails to be completed, most of the discs cannot be used again.

If an error occurs while a DVD-Video is created, the error

code “ERR**” (** indicates the error code) is shown in the

front panel display of the recorder. ( page 133) To clear this display, press the DISPLAY button.

There may be a difference between a specified thumbnail of menu in the DVD-Video creation procedure and the one on displayed in the “CONTENT MENU”.
