Editing the disc
This section explains how to edit
the recorded contents on DVD-
RWs. However, the items that you
can edit vary with the recording
formats. In VR mode, you can edit
various title menus, whereas in
Video mode, you can only edit a
few items.
Title menu
When the content is recorded, a title name that includes the date, time,
channel number and other information is created automatically.
The title menu can be used when you playback after confirming the
contents (see page 30), or when you check the contents recorded on
the disc.
Original title
The titles explained are called original titles; these will be added with
every recording. In VR mode you can do various editing operations i.e.,
you can rename the titles, or add the chapter marks. In addition, you
can erase unnecessary titles to increase disc space.
Playlist
You can create a playlist based on the original titles.
You can combine or erase unwanted scenes.
If you create a playlist it will become the primary list used by the disc.
If you create a playlist to customise your viewing preferences, and
choose to delete it, the original titles will not be affected. It is recom-
mended to create and edit the playlist to prevent important titles from
being erased accidentally.
If you create a playlist, both the original title and playlist will be dis-
played on the title menu.
Editable items
The items that can be edited are different between original title and
playlist. For the disc in Video mode, only the title name can be edited.
The items can be edited in each are as follows:
NOTES:
• This unit cannot record or edit a
disc that was recorded or edited
using another DVD recorder.
• You cannot edit or record the disc
when protection is set. If the disc
is protected, you must cancel the
disc protection (see page 22) be-
fore starting.
• When a scene has been erased,
the selected position for erasing
may vary slightly from the actual
erased position.
