Managing recordings
General information
The following additional information is also stored at the beginning of the recording:
• Index picture of the recording
• Name of the recording
• Input source of the recording
• Date of the recording
• Length of the recording
• Recording mode (Quality)
DVD recordings consist of titles (recorded video clips) and chapters (different scenes in a clip).
A chapter bookmark will be inserted if the ’DVD auto chapter’ function is activated in the
’Record Setup’ menu (Refer to "Record Setup" on page 65 for details). These bookmarks can be
changed when the recording has finished.
The scenes you do not want to see during playback (e.g. commercials), can be hidden or
skipped. During playback you can watch your recording as a continuous sequence without the
hidden chapters. See "How to insert chapter markers during playback:" on page 54 and
"Hiding/showing chapters" on page 55 for details.

Adding chapter markers during playback
Using this function, you can adjust a title to your personal preferences. You can insert/erase
chapter markers, hide chapters or delete all markers from the title.
Tips
The chapter marker function is useful as it can be used to locate chapters for hiding later on if you wish.
See "Hiding/showing chapters" on page 55.
You can mark chapters on DVD+RW type discs at any later time before the disc if finalized or full.
However, you can not mark chapters on DVD+R type discs.
You can set the DVD Recorder to mark chapters automatically when recording. Refer to "DVD Auto
Chap. (Chapter):" on page 65 for details.
while playing a suitable unprotected and unfinalized recordable DVD+RW type disc, you can
set and erase chapter markers within a title as detailed by the following procedure.
Each disc can have a maximum of 124 chapters, and 99 per title. When one of these values is
reached, the message ’
’ will display on-screen. If you wish to add more markers or to
make new recordings (which add their own markers) to a disc which has reached its chapter
limit, you will need to erase some existing chapter markers before you can continue.

the scene where you wish to insert a chapter marker.
2. Press the

button on the remote control to open the ’Edit’ menu.
