[Recording Functions] (Operation Details: page 33)

In addition to composite video, S-video, DV and RCA connectors, this unit is equipped with connectors for component video and XLR, thus providing support of connections to professional video components. In this way, RS-422A, IEEE1394, and LTC (linear time code) connectors can be used to support recording compliant with time code information.

Video and audio inputs are recorded to HDD or DVD-R/RW media while being converted to data compliant with the DVD-Video format.

During recording, manual chapter setting can be performed, as well as automated chapter insertion at 3, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals.

Notes :

Playback video/audio signals are delayed approximately 4 seconds from the input signal due to time required for encoding and decoding.

Recording will not begin when copy guard protected signals are input.

When DVD drive is selected as the recording destination, the EJECT button is disabled during use of the preview function.

When recording to DVD media, at the end of a recording, from several to several dozen seconds will be required to complete the disc writing process. If an attempt is made to restart recording during this period, the actual recording cannot begin until the disc writing process is completed.

Up to 99 chapter marks can be designated per title (clip); regardless of the insertion method, however, no more than 99 chapters can be inserted.

When chapter marks are inserted by pressing the Enter key on a keyboard, if the Enter key is held depressed, multiple consecutive chapter marks may be inserted.

Chapter mark positions are inserted in units of 15 frames (NTSC) or 12 frames (PAL).

When using the Edit List (EDL) function, at the final IN/OUT point setting, the APP section = [Auto Capture] = [IN/OUT Point] = [Record As] command must be set to “Title (Stop)”.

Recordings cannot be made directly to the USB HDD.

[Play Functions] (Operation Details: page 45)

Perform playback of clips recorded on DVD-Video discs or in projects recorded on hard disk drive, with video/audio being output to all output connectors.

During recording to hard disk drive, time shift playback can be used to play the recorded contents from beginning.

Notes :

When using DVD-Video time search, playback may begin at a point somewhat shifted from the actually designated time number.

Depending on the structure of the DVD-Video used, some errors may occurs when time search is performed for time numbers located in a range extending from several frames before to several frames after the divisions between titles and chapters.

Some recorded DVD-Video discs may not playback properly.

When a copy-protected DVD media is played back, if recording is performed, no signal will be output to DV, even if DV output is set to “Enabled”.

When DV output is "Enabled", pressing the PLAY button on the front panel or remote control unit will cause playback to begin after about five seconds.

During time shift playback, the PLAY button enable start time is different depending on video encode rate and audio encoding method.
