What is DV?
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can connect a
DV-equipped Camcorder to this Recorder using a single
DV cable for input and output of audio, video, data and
control signals.
The i.LINK interface is also known as IEEE 1394-1995.
“i.LINK” and the “i.LINK” logo are trademarks.
• This Recorder is only compatible with DV-format
(DVC-SD) camcorders.
Digital Satellite Tuners,
PCs, and D-VHS Video Recorders are not compati-
ble.
• You cannot connect more than one DV camcorder at
a time to this Recorder.
• You cannot control this Recorder from external equip-
ment connected via the DV IN port (including two
DVD Recorders).
• It may not be possible to always control the connect-
ed Camcorder via the DV IN port.
• Digital Camcorders can usually record audio as
stereo 16-bit/48kHz, or twin stereo tracks of 12-
bit/32kHz. This Recorder can only record one stereo
audio track. Set DV Rec Audio to Audio 1 or Audio 2
as required (see page 27).
• Audio input to the DV IN port should be 32 or 48kHz
(not 44.1kHz).
• Picture disturbance on the recording may occur if the
source component pauses playback or plays an
unrecorded section of tape, or if the power fails in the
source component, or the DV cable becomes discon-
nected.
• Although DV Rec Audio is set to Audio 2 and Audio 2
signal is not present, DV Rec Audio will be reset to
Audio 1 automatically.
