Recording an Entire DV
Format Tape (One Touch
Dubbing)

You can record the entire contents of a DV/
Digital8 format tape onto a disc with a single
press of the ONE-TOUCH DUB button on
the recorder. The recorder controls the digital
video camera for the whole process, and
completes the recording.

How chapters are created

The contents dubbed to the HDD or DVD
become a single title. When “Auto Chapter”
is set to “On” in the “Recording” setup, this
title is divided into chapters. When dubbing
to the HDD or a DVD-RW/DVD-R (VR
mode), each shooting session on the tape
becomes a chapter on the disc. For other
discs, the recorder divides the title into
chapters at approximately 6 minute intervals.

Follow steps 1 to 6 of “Preparing for DV
dubbing” on page 75, and press ONE-
TOUCH DUB on the recorder.

The recorder rewinds the tape and then starts
recording the tape contents.
When the recording is finished, the recorder
rewinds the tape in the digital video camera.

To stop during recording

Press

x

REC STOP.

Note that it may take a few seconds for the
recorder to stop recording.

z

Hints

• If you set “Finalise Disc” of “One Touch

Dubbing” to “Auto” in the “DVD” setup
(page 93), the recorded disc (except DVD-RW
(VR mode)) will automatically be finalised after
recording is finished.

• You can play back a previously recorded title on

the HDD while One Touch Dubbing is in
progress.

b

Notes

• When a blank space between the recordings on

the tape continues for more than five minutes,
One Touch Dubbing ends automatically.

• The recorder records a blank for five minutes

before it stops dubbing. To stop the blank
recording, press

x

REC STOP.
