INTRODUCTION
HOOKUP
DVD +R (Double Layer)
Double layer recording technology offers two recordable layers on a single DVD disc, providing nearly
double the capacity of 4.7GB single layer DVDs. The
greatest, most valuable benefit of double layer
recording technology is increased capacity. Storage
space is nearly doubled with double layer DVD+R
media, allowing consumers to burn up to 8.5GB of
video on a single DVD+R disc.
Chapter (DVD video discs only)
A chapter is a segment of a title such as a scene in a
film or one interview in a series. Each chapter is
assigned a chapter number, enabling you to locate
the chapter you want. Depending on the disc, chapters may not be recorded.
PLAYBACK
DVD-RAM
????
Title (DVD video discs only)
A title is generally a distinct section of a DVD disc.
For example the main feature could be title 1, a documentary describing how the film was made could be
title 2, and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title
is assigned a reference number enabling you to
locate it easily.
Scene (VCD)
On a video CD with PBC (playback control) functions,
moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sections called “scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the
menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling
you to locate the scene you want. A scene is composed of one or several tracks.
RECORDING
DVD ±R / DVD ±RW
DVD -R and DVD +R are two different standards for
recordable DVD drives and discs. This format allows
information to be recorded onto the DVD disc only
once. DVD +RW and DVD -RW are two standards for
re-writable media, meaning the DVD content can be
erased and re-recorded. Single-sided discs can hold
4.38 Gigabytes and double-sided discs hold twice as
much. There are no dual layer single sided recordable discs.
PBC: Playback Control (Video CD only)
Playback control is available for Video CD (VCD) version 2.0 disc formats. PBC allows you to interact with
the system via menus, search functions, or other typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures
of high resolution can be played if they are included
in the disc. Video CDs not equipped with PBC
(Version 1.1) operate in the same way as audio CDs.
Track
A distinct element of audiovisual information, such as
the picture or sound track for a specific language
(DVD), or a musical piece on a video or audio CD.
Each track is assigned a track number, enabling you
to locate the track you want. DVD discs allow one
track of video (with multiple angles) and several
tracks of audio.
EDITING
Disc-related terms
WMA

limit on the number of colors.
DivX
DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec
which is based on the new MPEG-4 compression
standard for video.You will be able to play DivX
movies using this recorder.
Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings
About MP3
•
•
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by
using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding
scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3” file
extension “MP3 files”.
The VCR/DVD Recorder can not read an MP3
file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.
About WMA (Window Media Audio)
• A WMA file is made using Microsoft audio
compression technology.
• WMA (Windows Media Audio) offers double
the audio compression of the MP3 format.
MP3 / WMA disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:
•
•
•
•
The player cannot read an MP3/WMA file that
has a file extension other than “.mp3” /
“.wma”.
CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
If you record MP3 / WMA files using software
that cannot create a file system (eg. DirectCD) it is impossible to playback MP3 / WMA
files. We recommend that you use Easy-CD
Creator, which creates an ISO 9660 file system.
The total number of files and folders on the
disc are free but the total number of files and
folders on the folder should be less than 999.
This VCR/DVD Recorder requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to
achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded
DVDs are automatically set to these standards.
There are many different types of recordable disc
formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA
files) and these require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible playback.
Customers should note that permission is
required in order to download MP3 / WMA files
and music from the Internet. Our company has
no right to grant such permission. Permission
should always be sought from the copyright
owner.
Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings
• Depending upon the size and number of JPEG
files, it could take a long time for the DVD+VCR
to read the disc’s contents. If you don’t see an onscreen display after several minutes, some of the
files may be too large — reduce the resolution of
the JPEG files to less than 5760 x 3840 pixels
and burn another disc.
• The total number of files and folders on the disc
should be less than 1500.
• Some discs may be incompatible due to a different recording format or the condition of disc.
• Ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg”
extensions when copying into the CD layout.
• If the files have “.jpe” or “.jpeg” extensions, please
rename them as “.jpg” file.
• File names without “.jpg” extension will not be
able to be read by this DVD+VCR. Even though
the files are shown as JPEG image files in
Windows Explorer.
DivX disc compatibility with this player is limited
as follows:
• Available resolution size of the DivX file is under
720x576 (W x H) pixel.
• The file name of the DivX subtitle is limited to
characters.
• If there is impossible code to express in the DivX
file, it may be displayed as " _ " mark on the display.
• If the number of the screen frame is over 30
frames per second, this unit may not operate
normally.
• If the video and audio structure of recorded
file is not interleaved, either video or audio is
outputted.
• If the file is recorded with GMC, the unit supports only 1-point of the record level.
* GMC?

What is DV?
DV-Related Messages
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can connect a
DV-equipped camcorder to this recorder using a single DV cable for input and output of audio, video,
data and control signals.
The i.LINK interface is also known as IEEE 13941995. “i.LINK” and the “i.LINK” logo are trademarks.
You may see the following messages appear on your
TV screen when using the DV IN jack.
•
This recorder is only compatible with DV-format
(DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital satellite tuners and
Digital VHS video recorders are not compatible.
Too many devices connected.
The DV jack on this recorder supports connection to
just one camcorder.
•
You cannot connect more than one DV camcorder
at a time to this recorder.
•
You cannot control this recorder from external
equipment connected via the DV IN jack (including two DVD Recorders).
Not connected to Camcorder.
The camcorder is not connected properly, or the camcorder is switched off.

equipment.
Uncontrollable device.
The VCR/DVD Recorder cannot control the camcorder.
•
It may not always be possible to control the connected camcorder via the DV IN jack.
•
Digital camcorders can usually record audio as
stereo 16-bit/48kHz, or twin stereo tracks of 12bit/32kHz. The VCR/DVD Recorder can only
record one stereo audio track. Set DV Record
Audio to Audio 1 or Audio 2 as necessary (see
page 26).
Updating the Information.
Camcorder is updating information for DV.
•
Audio input to the DV IN jack should be 32 or
48kHz (not 44.1kHz).
Troubleshooting
•
Picture disturbance on the recording may occur if
the source component pauses playback or plays
an unrecorded section of tape, or if the power
fails in the source component, or the DV cable
becomes disconnected.
If you cannot get a picture and/or audio through the
DV IN jack, check the following:
If DV Record Audio is set to Audio 2, but no Audio
2 signal is present, DV Record Audio will be reset
to Audio 1 automatically.
•
Camera mode.
Camcorder is set to camera mode.
•
Make sure the DV cable is properly connected.
•
Try switching off the connected equipment, then
switch it back on.
•
Try switching the audio input.
Notes:
• Depending on the connected camcorder, you may
not be able to control it using the Remote Control
supplied with this VCR/DVD Recorder.
•

T itle and Chapter Editing
Edits you make to the Original content changes the
actual content of the disc. For example, if you delete
a title or chapter from the Original content (Title or
Chapter), that title or chapter is deleted from the disc,
freeing up extra recording time.
When you edit the Playlist, on the other hand, you
are not changing the content of the disc. For example, when you delete a title from the Playlist, you are
just telling the recorder not to play that title; nothing is
actually deleted from the disc.
Titles, Chapters and Parts
VR
Titles in the disc’s original content contain one or
more chapters. When you insert a title into the
Playlist, all the chapters within that title also appear.
In other words, chapters in the Playlist behave exactly as chapters on a DVD-Video disc do. Parts are
sections of Original or Playlist titles. From the Original
and Playlist menu you can add or delete parts.
Adding a chapter or title to the Playlist creates a new
title made up of a section (ie., chapter) of an Original
title. Deleting a part removes part of a title from the
Original or Playlist menu.
Caution

When editing using the Delete, Add and Move functions,
