• Since the recording mode for recorded titles is
calculated after sampling the recorded data during
playback, it may be displayed differently from the
mode you selected when recording. However, the
actual recording itself is correctly made in the selected
mode.
Recording main and sub sounds
You can record the different soundtracks on a
DVD-RW (VR mode) or DVD-R (VR mode) from
equipment connected to the LINE 1 IN or LINE 2
IN jacks. When playing the disc, you can select
main or sub sound by pressing the AUDIO button.

“Main/Sub” in the Setup Display (page 84).
When recording on other discs, select either sound
track with the connected equipment before
recording.
