Notes
• If one programme contains two picture sizes, the
selected size is recorded. However, if the 16:9 signal
cannot be recorded as 16:9, it is recorded as 4:3.
• Remnants of images may appear on your screen when
using “Rec NR.”
• “Rec Video Equalizer” does not affect the input of the
DV IN jack and does not work with RGB signals.
The recorder can automatically divide a recording
(a title) into chapters by inserting chapter marks
during recording. To disable this function, set
“Auto Chapter” in “Features” setup to “Off”
(page 92).
When recording on the HDD or a DVD-RW (VR
mode)
The recorder detects changes in the picture and
sound and automatically inserts chapter marks.
You can also insert and erase chapter marks
manually (page 69).
When recording on other recordable discs
Chapter marks are inserted at approximately 6-
minute intervals during recording.
b
Note
When dubbing (page 72), the chapter marks in the
dubbing source are not retained in the dubbed title.
