Playback
This section describes the connections and settings for
the playback and functions such as playback at various
speeds and searching for a specific scene on a recorded
tape.
Connections for Playback
Connecting the unit to a monitor with an
i.LINK jack
The video and audio signals are sent with hardly any
degradation, enabling high-quality playback.
Notes
• Be sure that you set [VCR HDV/DV] on the [IN/
OUT REC] menu to [AUTO] (default setting) before
connecting the video equipment to this unit with the
i.LINK cable.
If you change the setting after connecting the i.LINK
cable, the video equipment may not be able to
recognize the video signal correctly (see page 48).
• To connect the unit to a monitor equipped with an
i.LINK jack, you may need to set the monitor so that
it recognizes this unit.
For details, refer to your monitor's instruction
manual.
• When the i.LINK cable is connected, the unit cannot
output video or audio separately.
• If you connect the input connectors of this unit to the
output connectors of a monitor, a humming noise
may be generated or the image may be distorted. If
these phenomena occur, use the INPUT SELECT
switch to select a signal that is not being input or
disconnect the cables.
• The monitor you want to connect to the unit using the
i.LINK cable must be HDV or DV format
compatible. To play back a tape recorded in the
HDV mode on a DV-compatible monitor, set [i.LINK
CONV] on the [IN/OUT REC] menu to [ON] before
connecting the unit with the i.LINK cable. For
details, refer to your monitor's instruction manual.
• Some general consumer television sets are provided
with a function to control equipment connected with
the i.LINK cable. Such a function, however, may not
work with this unit.
