TV system switch confirmation dialog 2

Press [OK] to confirm the newly selected TV system. If [Cancel] is selected, the unit will return to the previously set TV system. Also, the previous TV system will also be restored automatically if the dialogue box is left displayed without taking action for 10 seconds or more.

The TV system can also be changed by simultaneously pressing the front panel’s CURSOR (upward pointing arrow) and STOP buttons,

or by pressing function key 1-12 if that function has been allocated. In this case, no dialogue box will be displayed.

Note:

TV system cannot be changed except when the unit is in the idle mode.

Selecting Input

On the Function Menu, the STATUS section = [V Input] and [A Input] commands indicate the currently selected video and audio input signals. Use the CURSOR and ENTER buttons to change to the connectors for different input signals if desired. With either [V input] or [A input] is designated in “DV”, both video and audio will become DV input. In this case, “LPCM” (see page 37) cannot be selected as the audio encoding method.

When “PAL” is selected as the TV system, only 1 [Component] type will be available.

Also, DV audio format auto-sensing is performed in the case of the following settings, with the result that recording and preview are disabled during the 2 or 3 seconds until the sensing is completed.

1When input selection is changed;

2When recording settings are changed;

3Immediately following DV signal input (when cable is connected or playback is begun on a connected DV component)

Note:

If preview is performed immediately after setting input, the error message “No DV Input” will appear. This is only the result of the auto-sensing process noted above, however, and is not a malfunction.
